Before the referendum JR said leaving the EU was "more important than which party wins the next election”. Easy for him to say when he’s sat in one of the safest seats in UK. Will be interesting to see what he thinks in July.

He's dead right, Leaving the EU was more important than which part wins the GE.
Now we need everyone to vote for Reform uk then you won't believe your eyes at what Brexit can deliver.
Not much will happen if the political will isn't there, Just as it is now.
I just hope people this time, Will see how bad cons/Labour are and won't vote for them.
Sadly the elite's have done well over the decades making people think they can't talk about their vote, It's private and personal, But you can only vote cons/Labour.

Reform UK is holding a press conference today. Watch live from 11am via Reform's social media channels on YouTube, Facebook, or X.

2 Ashley … if Reform UK does really well on the 4th July, Brexit will be in safe hands. But if Starmer gets in No 10, and Starmer treats Brexit as a ‘damage limitation exercise’ for the next 4 years … it is likely that many people will get desponded with Brexit and Brexit will become a BRINO. Both Brexiteers and Rejoiners will start questioning (for different reasons) what the point of Brexit was … and Brexit will be at risk in the long-term. Farage allowed Boris to win with a large majority in 2019 by standing down all Reform UK candidates in conservative-held constituencies. That was a massive mistake by Farage. And it will be very difficult for Reform UK to repair the damage of this mistake if they don’t do well on the 4th July AND the Conservatives do very badly.
Nigel Farage can blame rejoiners for Brexit ‘underdelivering’ … but I think his own decision in 2019 to support Boris was short-sighted, naive and a huge mistake.

3 Jay … Nigel Farage said ‘it is not the right time now’!
We have an election in 6 weeks time and immigration has been soaring in the wake of Brexit because of Boris Johnson’s government … this could not be a better time for Nigel Farage to fix Brexit. More naivety and shortsightedness from Nigel Farage?

The Conservative party have betrayed all those who voted to leave the EU.
Large numbers of Conservative MPs were aghast at the result of the Referendum
and have done their level best not to diverge too much from the EU so that it would be
easy for a future Labour government to rejoin the EU.
I think there are many Remainer/Rejoiner Tory MPs who secretly want to lose the election
so that Labour can take us back into the EU by stealth.
We will rejoin by stealth - the Labour party will not risk having another Referendum in case
the Establishment lose it again.

The success of the Leave campaign and Farage was to make immigration the number 1 issue for the referendum (Reform are trying again). The latest net immigration is 2.5 times what it was in the years after Poland etc joined the EU. Brexit has failed.
.
For this election reality has set in with the Economy the number 1 issue and NHS number 2. Interesting analysis by SKY as to why the election has been called now. The analysis shows living standards have fallen for the first time over a parliamentary term since the 1950's (The parliamentary term that Got Brexit Done (but didnt!)).

I've no idea why commentators here are believing that Reform will 'save' Brexit.
Firstly, the likelihood of Reform getting any seats is astonishingly low - sure, they will take votes away from the Tories - all this will do is allow labour, libs & Greens to get in - when ordinarily they wouldn't.
Many Tories will just sit on their hands & not vote such is their loathing for Sunak et al.
The key thing to remember is that the FPTP voting system bequeaths a two party Con/Lab state an incredible voting advantage - sure, in 20, maybe 30 years Reform will be the New Tory or Centre Right party but not yet.
I've seen informed analysis that suggests that Reform will top out at c. 14-16% of the popular vote -That is still a lot of votes, possibly 3.5-4m -unfortunately Reform coming 2nd or even 3rd in over 100 seats won't get them seats or even near a whiff of power - A proportional representation system would help but the likes of Tice/Habib and Anderson are so polarising that even with PR you would be hard pushed to say what Reform stands for.
Reform does have some odd coves as candidates - given the lack of vetting of candidates (that Reform doesn't perform), it'll be interesting to see what oddities & quirks are 'outed' before the GE.
Voting Reform begets a labour/lib/green government ( sadly)- the Tories will necessarily get a massive kicking this time around but will be immeasurably stronger in 2-3 years following a disastrous Starmer Lab government.
The good news - the EU have already spiked Labour's guns & told them that accepting the judgement ECJ for access to the Single Market is too high a price & a very hard sell to the UK public.

No sparky. Sovereignty was the number one issue.
.
Failure to tackle immigration is a failure of government not a failure of Brexit.

Sparkless, as usual you have it all backwards, the number on issue was sovereignty and the ability of the UKGov to make decisions in the interests of the UK not 27 other countries, with the electorate to hold the government to account. we are now about to witness that accountability from the electorate.
,
So, the clearly the Brexit intention that politicians are held accountable is working and Brexit is working just fine
