I have sympathy with any voter, anyone, who having witnessed the last 14 years and then Labour in the last year and wonders just how can things be this bad unless a) they voted for brexit b) voted Tory after 2010 c) is thinking of voting reform because anyone who thinks reform wonât make things a thousand times worse after voting for the previous?  It is they who are the problem.  They are the reason the country is in the doldrums with an embarrassingly-timid Labour government Specifically Chris mason - a not very bright right leaning stooge - large part of why bbc news has become grok-level slop  -

In what way? Maybe it just felt more intelligent and considered coming directly after Question Time, which was a barely watchable bun fight. -
Yes, all this. Totally Sephiroth. The electorate wants to see transformation overnight. That's not possible. But what is possible is leading with the right comms strategy, which isn't cutting through. As I've said before, messaging matters more now than policy, that's the only way to bring the electorate with you. And I worry that that's how Reform's going to get into power. And the media LOVES Reform. -
âThere was an excellent discussion on Newscast last night between the BBC Political Editor, the director of the IFS and the director of More In Common - all highly intelligent people with no party political agenda â I would call this âgenerousâ  Labour should never have made that tax promise because, as with - duh - Brexit, itâs pretending the real world doesnât exist now. I blame Labour in no small part for this delusion. But the electorate need to cop on as well.  They think they can have everything they want without responsibilities, costs or attachments. The media encourage this Labour do need to raise taxes. The country needs it.  Now, exactly how itâs done remains to be seen. But if people are just going to go around going âla la laffer curve. Liars! String em up! Vote someone elseâ then they just arenât serious people reckoning with the problem yes Labour are more than a year into their term, but after 14 years of what the Tories  did? Whoever takes over, has a major problemÂ
