Has anyone else noticed a similar trend to shy tories and secret pro-brexit voters in the public interviews - eviltoast

I’ve been watching several YouTube videos featuring interviews with people from various constituencies, and there’s a common theme among those voting for Reform. They often say, “I can’t vote Tory, and I won’t vote Labour, so I have no choice but to vote Reform.”

This sentiment gives me a strong sense of déjà vu, reminiscent of the confidence among Remainers before Brexit and the optimism of the left in 2015.

Is it possible we could be heading towards a dark timeline with a Tory-Reform coalition?

    There’s almost no chance of a Conservative-Reform coalition winning this election. If it did, the opinion polling industry would cease to exist.

    Reform won’t win enough seats anyway to be part of government because their vote share will be too spread out and that’s useless under FPTP.
