Nigel Farage is on course to become Prime Minister with a landslide victory for his party Reform UK according to a new mammoth opinion poll. Reform would win 377 seats if an election was held today, giving them a majority of 50. Labour would win 118 seats, fewer than half as many as Reform, as anger over tax rises and soaring prices turns voters against Sir Keir Starmer's party.
It would mean Sir Keir was kicked out of Downing Street. He could continue as leader of the opposition, or Labour could elect a new leader. Liberal Democrats would gain 69 seats - but Conservatives would be consigned to fourth place with just 29 seats in a nightmare result

What are the options re calling for an election?
You’d think a 50 seat majority would be enough to be able to get stuff done. Are there that many RINOs there? (Reformers in name only).
Let’s hope he’s the real deal and not a paper tiger who spent his political career criticizing and if he gets his chance to govern, actually follows thru, it might be the UK’s last chance.
Too bad that Keir Starmer does not have to hold elections for another 4 years.
Plenty of time to import new voters.
The Brits are not required to call a national election until August of 2029.
If Farage can maintain his popularity for 4 more years, he may have a chance, regardless of how long he’s waited.
WOW...fingers crossed the Nigel wins!
But Sir Keir is HATED and there can be a vote of NO CONFIDENCE.
Okay, but what does a vote of “no confidence” do?
A change of the PM and sometimes a whole new election .
There’s not going to be an election for four years.
What bullSchiff.
“... as anger over tax rises and soaring prices...”
The next election is in 2029.
“ Okay, but what does a vote of “no confidence” do?”
Labour has a 400 seat majority.
Farange is the real deal. He was the force getting out of the EU.
Too bad there’s no actual election coming up, so this means nothing
Big problem. The next election will be in Summer 2029. A lot can change before then.
With the huge majority that the Maoists now have there’s no way in hell that their opponents can force an election before July 2029.
Nope...no such vote will happen. The Maoists might choose to give the current guy the boot and install some other filthy pig fornicator in his place but that won’t change things even slightly.
