The unearthing of the videos could prove damaging to Farage, whose party is leading in the polls in the UK.

I would bet everything I own that there will be 0 consequences from this

Yep. The people voting for him either already agree with the statements or will convince themselves it’s not a problem.

Reform support has slowly but steadily been dropping for months now. Is it because their supporters are dying off, or because their supporters can’t tell the difference between Reform and Restore? Who can say? But Reform have peaked and are now fading. Don’t present them as inevitable

After five years in the UK, I’ve been noticing a lot of self-fulfilling prophecies. Is that normal, or?

Farage has been losing support recently for a few reasons, this is one more. whilst the core 30% of bastards won’t shift much, this will make it hard for reform to spread into the more nuanced demographics.

Turns out being a trump fanboy just isn’t much of a vote winner right now

Idk, his support might go up as consequence.

There are two types of reform voter. The first type of the racist bigots that would just vote for reform whatever (although reform are losing some of them to Rupert Lowe’s party) and the second type are the people that are fed up with the current establishment and just want some kind of anti-establishment party they can vote for. And they just put up with the racism.

The more and more videos that come out showing how much of an actual Nazi he is, the less those people can tolerate the racism and the fewer support him. I would be willing to bet that the majority of reforms support are these second group. The out and out bigots have always been an extremely vocal minority.

I really hope you’re right. If so the greens stand a pretty good chance

Reform voters want him to be like that. It reflects their own prejudices and fantasies of what it’d be like to express their own shitty id.
