Grant StClair-Armstrong, the party’s candidate
in North West Essex, told BBC News
he had “never supported the BNP” and had
been forced to stand down by the party.

“I would have let the people decide,” he said.

But a spokesman for Reform UK said
“Mr StClair-Armstrong has tendered his
resignation” after “the revelation of unacceptable
historic social media comments”.

In remarks first reported by the Times, external,
Mr StClair-Armstrong wrote on a website:
“I could weep now, every time I pick up
a British newspaper and read the latest about
the state of the UK.
No doubt, Enoch Powell would be doing
the same if he was alive.
My solution … vote BNP!”]

Yes good he is Removed
Great news for Kemi!

1.5 billion is peanuts compared to what labour will spend. As long as they leave the pensioners alone, i don't care

It shows us that the Tories lied about how severe the countries financial situation was, when they were willing to save their own skin more than looking after the people of this country on a basic financial level.

Whatever flaws Labour will have under Starmer will also have to be tackled when the time comes, but for now we can't have another four or five years of what the Tories have brought to the table over the past 14 years.

What exactly do you think labour are going to splash out on? Other than corporate tax welfare, and funding the privatisation of the NHS.

The tories should be out based on the contempt they showed for the public over the last 5 years, let alone anything else. However, politics just doesn't work that way anymore, i don't trust opinion polls at all. When 1 party is shown as so far ahead, it affects how many people go out and vote, this particularly applies to young folks. Labour should walk it, but i'm not sure they will

I also want to add that I think that it's fair for May's time to be brought into this considering her time weren't that long ago.

I mean Tony Blair's time gets used against Labour as to why they're such a problematic party, so why can't May's time be used against the Tories? If May was the only problematic leader that they've had in their 14 years that is.

Boris is the only one that I'll excuse because of having to deal with Covid and Brexit, but the other Tory leaders have genuinely been appalling.

SNP wouldn't form a coalition with the Tories on their own, let alone one also featuring Reform. It would be the final nail an a coffin already being carved. Their seats at the next election would plummet to zero.

Add to that as a general principle - I doubt we'd ever see a coalition government that didn't feature the largest party in an election, unless the seats were VERY close. It's already a clown "democracy" but that would be one step too far in taking the blinkers off of people's eyes.

They won't be able to do that with Labour's margin of lead.

I'm just not seeing the momentum to stop Labour.

I could even see some Lib Dems and Green voters switching to Labour just to stop Tories and Reform.

I’d like to see the polls if they get shut of Sunak and get PennyM in place …
