THE RESULTS AND REES-MOGG

Rees-Mogg with his bauble for obedience


Dear Dame,

Do you agree with Sir Jacob? He says that the right-wing rump of the Tory Party should join forces with Reform UK to bar Sir Keir from Downing St.

Sounds pretty daft to me. Reform UK knows that the Tory right is predominately made up of daft old fools who have never had any influence over policy.

I was talking to a senior Reform UK bloke who said the ambition is to destroy the Tories not join them.

By the way, why did Mr Farage not come and campaign for the Reform UK candidates? Was he keeping his options open?

Kindest regards


A floating voter


PS Should I vote for Miss Buchan or is that a wasted vote?

  1. Ben Habib is the main man at Reform UK. He has utter contempt for the Tories. He will never allow any deals to be done with people he considers to be the architects of the UK's misfortune.

  2. Rees-Mogg likes to put himself up as some sort of old fashioned aristo. In actual fact, his grandfather was a Welsh coal merchant made good and the Mogg's W. Country gypsies.

  3. Any attempted merger will be the death of Reform UK's ambitions. They will get submerged into the hopeless Tories

    1. ‘A natty haircut and secret WhatsApp groups.’ Sunday’s Daily Mail ‘reveal how Kemi Badenoch, Grant Shapps, Penny Mordaunt and Robert Jenrick are all plotting to be the next party leader’

    2. Sunak will be desperate to stop them. Bringing back DC looked like a crazy idea but Kwasi Kwarteng said this month that Sunak should “swallow some pride” and bring Johnson back to frontline politics!

    3. Conservatives plotters are continuing to work behind the scenes on a so-called “grid of shit” news in an effort to destabilise Mr Sunak, although some right-wingers are more immediately focused on policy rather than leadership change.

    Jacob says that if the votes casted for Reform yesterday are added to votes cast in favour of the Tories, the Tories would have won.

    1. It is as bad as Dent Coad saying that the Lib Dems should not stand so that Labour can win in Kensington. I remember saying as much.

  5. What should terrify the Tories is this. The Reform UK result was achieved with minimal on the ground support whereas the Tories bought all their campaigning expertise and help. Also, Farage seemed reluctant to engage in the campaign. Were he to have done so Reform UK would have done eve better.

    Dame, there were blogs concerning Catherine Faulks's husband working for Potanin, a sanctioned oligarch and a friend of Putin. In light of the killing of Navalny can you please explain what is going on?

  7. The ‘Tory Right' (like JRM) and Reform UK are the exact people who helped trash the UK economy by their bare faced lies about Brexit. The UK is now in recession!

    1. The Brexit vote has only left the U.K.’s economy 5% worse off, Goldman Sachs economists said last week.

    2. 5 % worse off seems like an under estimate to me!

      A considerable amount of the economic loss that the UK suffered as a result of Brexit was masked by the pandemic. The true contraction in UK economic output has been not properly attributed to Brexit and some data has been subsumed in to data about the pandemic.
