:::"So what that leaves England with (Scotland and Wales being somewhat different) is a rotting two and a half party system which does not allow any other broad based party to rise. The result is inevitable – a horrible beast like Reform which can attract '''disenchanted and low information voters and which doesn’t care if it lets them down.''' Reform itself is less a far right organisation than '''an open house for every grifter, crackpot and oddball''' have a go at getting themselves on the TV (this used to be the job of the Lib Dems). In some respects, England is lucky that it doesn’t have a ‘real’ far right party led by people who know what they are doing, as the situation would be ripe for one to grab control."
