From now on whenever referring to him, the media need to use his full name, “Failed Reform candidate Matthew Goodwin”.
So obviously he’s a tosser but I also can’t believe how thick he is. He’s trying to appeal to the electorate in northern England, in Manchester, in 2026, and his go-to line is “Christian heritage”, now that might have worked well in the 1800s but I don’t know if he’s noticed but there’s been a bit of a cultural revolution since then, and we don’t really respond very positively to religious statements anymore. Then on top of all of that he put out that leaflet in an area that is 40% Muslim.
Talk about an inability to read the room.
