'Without a Tory-Reform pact, we’re sunk – but egos are almost certain to get in the way.' DT.
Blogger: Hannan is wrong this time. He has not recognised that the Tories are perhaps going to get an even bigger pasting in the next election than they got in the last one.
All this is against a backcloth of voter optimism that there is something so much better out there than Tories. (Didn't there have to be?)
A small but significant number of Lib Dems will move over to Reform - and the Labour Party is going to get the biggest pasting it's had in the last century. (Where do you think most of their missing votes will go?)
Labour is hated so much that even dishing out annual £1,000 pound Christmas vouchers to pensioners wouldn't rescue them.
Naturally, Keir cannot survive the next four years, and inevitably, he will be replaced by Wes Streeting but the damage runs too deep. The coterie of appalling women in senior Labour positions would have to go in its entirety before any improvements could be made - but the left will not allow him to have a proper clear out of political dregs.
I know Nigel's weaknesses from my UKIP days. Happily, the press does not seem to. If Nigel has learned lessons from the past then I believe that this bandwagon will march ever onwards.
If he makes the same old mistakes - the bandwagon will turn into a flimsy house of cards.
