Marco Longhi was selected for Dudley North, quite unbelievably, ahead of Les Jones - former leader of Dudley MBC and a proper traditional Tory.
Marco's lurch the idiot tendency has been rapid and at times beyond belief. I have several times brought up with him on SM the fact that at some point Reform is going to ask voters to cast their ballots for pretty much the worst of the 2017/19 Tory intake. What's the definition of insanity again?

Despite that it was made by a Tory spokesperson, my favourite quote on this latest defection is thus:
"[Reform UK is] fast becoming the party of has-been politicians looking for their next gravy train".
Sums it up just about perfectly.

So who should I vote for? Cons under BJ et al were gash i agree but the dog goes where the walker takes him. I see a vote for Labour is the only other realistic option (other than tactical voting for idiots) but not with their performance so far. They need to change the leader and stop copying others imo. The current trial and error policy is making them look twats with all the weak u turns. I'm a gambler and think fuck it nowt to lose voting for Reform at this moment in time. Hoping for some encouragement not to but it looks a way off
Reform can't win really because if they have new faces they're inexperienced and if they import experience they're old school failures
