18.9% on here voting for Reform. Very small sample of people of course.
I hope that’s not a reflection of the whole country.

If people can’t see through Farage for what he is then Heaven help us all.

As previously said or implied CR this is not a truly random poll but more of a captured audience of mainly old men guessing most over 45. It is showing more support for reform than national polls.

This is the Republic Of South Yorkshire CR, where a Labradoodle would get in if it wore a Red Rosette. I suspect the country in general could have a higher % of Reform voters.

''Nigel Farage has said he is part of a “similar phenomenon” to the misogynist influencer Andrew Tate, as he claimed that there were forces in society trying to “stop young men from being young men”.

The Reform UK leader used the last day of campaigning before the general election to appear alongside Derek Chisora, the controversial boxer and Reform UK supporter, in a boxing gym in Clacton, where Farage is making his eighth bid to be elected as an MP.

Farage used the visit to speak about what he described as the feelings of “emasculation” among young men, saying: “Look at the football. You know, they’re told: Go to Germany. Please don’t drink more than two pints of beer. You what? Don’t chant at the football matches. You what? Oh, and don’t tell jokes that might offend the Germans. I mean, come on. We are trying to stop young men being young men.

I just want to say to any of the 18 that have nominated Reform that I'm here for you should you wish to talk about any such problems.

It's polling day and despite being a Lib Dem member and erstwhile councillor candidate for them I've switched my vote to Labour on a tactical basis so I can metaphorically return the middle finger that Andrea Jenkyns gave the British public.

It will be closer than you think, with a big tory area of the Isle of Axholme incorporated into the new constituency

I wonder if Keir Starmer voted Labour, or changed his mind?

With 14.3% of the vote so far it suggests the old men of the forum have performed well at 20%

If you look at the many constituencies where reform have polled second or third, you will see they have garnered around 20% of the vote for that area, in many cases. I actually think this forum was a fairly good straw poll.

Remember Reform didn't stand candidates in many places (eg Doncaster North).  That skews it.

And yet you compared the national vote with that of a fourth tier football team forum poll.
