Because they want to get rid of FPTP and fix immigration, your main two important issues. But it seems like you’re adding extra steps now…
Anyways, reading your other comments here, you’ve confirmed what others already suspected - you don’t really want to fix the root issues of immigration, you’re just a xenophob.
I’m not adding extra steps at all. I want a party that will do something about immigration and voting. Reform seem the loudest in that space so they are likely to get my vote.
You are the one trying to convince me to vote libdem and I don’t see what they offer. The party has never interested me and I don’t see why I would vote for them. So if you can’t give me a reason to choose then over reform I don’t see why you would bring it up.
I don’t know if it’s your reading comprehension or you’re just confused, but I urge you to re-read my comments - I’m not trying to convince you of anything, you clearly made your decision and it doesn’t seem to be based on any empirical evidence.
You made some bold claims though and I’m here to challenge you on those.
You claim to be a “leftie”.
You voted remain.
You want to reform FPTP and immigration.
Apparently reform are the only ones to hit all the boxes.
So my answer is this… If you vote Reform, you’re not a leftie. If you vote Farage, you’re not a Remainer either.
There are other parties who want to reform voting and immigration with better track record, actual councillors and more humane policies.
Well what makes someone a leftie? Because it seems we have different views on what that is and I’m letting you lay down the groundwork on that. I don’t mean parties I mean as a concept. What cote views make someone left vs right?
Sure if you vote for a right party then I can see how that by definition can make you right. So if I vote right then yes I will be for the first time in my life right. (All other times I voted for a left party and I think my core right/left views are left. Just few exceptional views could override others and make me vote for a party that holds views I don’t agree with).
In the Brexit vote I voted remain. What more can i say?
I didn’t say reform hit all the boxes. You tried to convince me to vote for someone else and I asked why I should vote for them.
I voted for other left leaning parties in the past because of voting reform issues. As for immigration I think reform are talking about it more and the publicity on the issue is bigger. Therefore voting for reform does more for the immigration issue than any other.
I’m really struggling to understand what you don’t get.
