Tuesday [17]

(1520) Visitor’s zipped off to do home duties, so we solved all the issues of the world first, natch, hanged the right people, incarcerated the others and here’s our joint statement:

What non-Uniparty Brits need to do

Firstly, Reform under that name is now a busted flush, due to Nige’s jihadi tendencies, plus Tice’s and Anderson’s behaviour … no way back, that’s a given.

So it needs a mass meeting in some hall, chaired by someone acceptable to most, someone not allied with Nigel or Rupert per se, someone at ground level and not only does it need a new party, new committee but even before that … who is still going to own the party? 50% Nigel & Tice, 50% Yusuf & Jihadis?

Thirdly, if the private ownership is a major sticking point, plus the jihadi factor is a major sticking point, then clearly there’s no point going on. Under the name “Reform” TM, whoever has 50% or 50% + one vote … has the controlling say.

Under those circumstances, there needs to be a second meeting with all interested people present … all those councillors, all those ground level workers, slight change to the name but the party controlled by existing Reform members plus anyone else thinking of joining. None of the good work done undone … everything still on a roll, Rupert still chief rottweiler in parliament, Dame Andrea still there if she wishes, any Kippers or Heritage or Homeland welcome, any defecting Labour or Tories.

Nigel, Tice, Anderson? Up to them … stay with the legacy jihadi Reform rump or join the new Britain party or whatever, platform drawn up … forward march.

  1. Until recently I had never considered the ownership of political parties, always assumed them to be a sort of mutual owned by the members. Can a party be a mutual? In fact, can a party be a charity, giving voice in the legislature to the starving, shivering hardworking folk of this land? Furthermore, why does a party need to be national? A coalition of local organisations, each in broad agreement on major national issues, under the umbrella and financing of a central office.

  2. Am so sick of getting some momentum and it all turning to s**t.

    I have been a big supporter of Nigel, but i think we need to start again, bring in all the big personalities and thinkers together and lock them in a hotel or conference hall for a weekend and see what they come up with… if it’s coherent, let’s do that next.

    Have to also look at myself… i see i have been wrong on a few fronts. Self reflection in progress.
