The winds of reform are still blowing in the United Kingdom, as a new poll released this week shows that ‘outsider’ Nigel Farage is now as likely as Keir Starmer to become the new prime minister.
Daily Mail reported:
“The survey, by More in Common, reveals that the Reform UK leader is in joint poll position to make it to Downing Street in four years’ time. It comes ahead of local elections on May 1, at which Mr. Farage’s party is looking to make notable breakthroughs.”
Reform UK has pushed the decadent Conservatives into third place.
“Voters were asked who they thought would be the prime minister after the next election and 13 per cent of said Mr. Farage. This was the same as the percentage of people who think Sir Keir will still be prime minister in four years.”
40 percent of those polled had no idea who would be the country’s next leader.
“Luke Tryl, the executive director of More in Common UK told the Telegraph: ‘Only 13 per cent of Britons are confident Keir Starmer will remain in post after the next election, while a striking 41 per cent say they simply don’t know what the next elected government will look like. In fact, the public rate Nigel Farage’s chances of becoming prime minister as highly as those of the current PM, with Reform voters particularly convinced their man will be walking into Downing Street’.”
This new poll comes as all political parties kick off the local elections campaign.
“Speaking on whether he really believed he could turn ‘the Red Wall’ – the label given to Labour heartlands in the Midlands and North – into ‘the Reform Wall’, he said: ‘Yeah, you know what, I think voting has become much more transitory than it’s ever been before’.”
The May 1st local elections will elect 1,641 councilors in the first election for Reform after winning five parliamentary seats in last year’s election.
“Asked what a Reform-run council would look like, Mr. Farage said the party would introduce ‘a British equivalent of DOGE in every single council. We will look at the sums spent on DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion initiatives). A massive change of culture, that’s what we’re going to bring to these county councils’.”
