Has anyone else noticed a similar trend to shy tories and secret pro-brexit voters in the public interviews (feddit.uk)

I've been watching several YouTube videos featuring interviews with people from various constituencies, and there's a common theme among those voting for Reform. They often say, "I can't vote Tory, and I won't vote Labour, so I have no choice but to vote Reform."

This sentiment gives me a strong sense of déjà vu, reminiscent of the confidence among Remainers before Brexit and the optimism of the left in 2015.

Is it possible we could be heading towards a dark timeline with a Tory-Reform coalition?

I have no obligation to struggle on on your behalf. Nor anyone else.

You'll be pleased to hear I'm fucking off, as you and your ilk love to tell me when I voice my opinion on the state of the country.

Good luck voting your way out of this mess. I'll be back when you guys realise the need for a revolution.

Please don't post to both !uk_politics@feddit.uk and !unitedkingdom@feddit.uk .
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.

Posts should be related to UK-centric politics, and should be either a link to a reputable news source for news, or a text post on this community.

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.

If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread. (These things should be publicly discussed)

Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.
