The silent majority stay silent. That is the British way and the British downfall .
"It is like watching a nation busily engaged in heaping up its own funeral pyre.” 1968
Were I live it's been run by Labour forever, I'm 62 always been that way and why I don't know, they do nothing for the area I live in.
@@pam164same we’re I live no point voting 🗳 labour safe seat
NO VOTE NO CONSENT NO PROBLEM
And the Irish Way unfortunately.
i will be voting Reform for real change!!!
Me 2!!
Neither labour nor the tories is the answer. The UK needs more and better choices.
REFORM UK
The government is supposed to serve the people, not the other way around.
Trouble is - Labour will be more woke than the Conservatives. Starmer has already been to Canada courting Trudeau et al.
Jesus wept, it was the Tories that introduced a these woke laws, but you think Labour would be worse 😂 no wonder the government get away with it.
Only a revolution is going to work!
AND FRANCE.
Can't stand conservatives now don't trust them, certainly don't trust labour, they're even further out of touch, I will be voting reform
Both failing Governments, says it all.
Ann is the most straight talking MP ever she would have sent ALL boats back to France with 2 fingers
She is a good old-fashioned, brave woman.
Ann is a real Warrior & unfortunately the majority of people in experience as a former Warrior within a Cowardly Complaining Irish Culture, Warriors are not welcome when the Mob get together, they don't like being showed up and gather in opposition to feel safe. But Ann kicked ass before and I feel she will do it again.
She's a national treasure
If only the masses would vote for something other than the 2 main parties. I despair.
Then there's those who can't even be bothered to vote
And imported Labour voters don't help.
We will vote for something different if we are given the chance but that's NOT Reform
@@christhompson9819 Do you have a better idea?
@@GailPlatt yes Nigel Farage should come out of his self imposed retirement. ..formed a UKIP type party and disaffected MPs and disillusioned voters will flock to him
Love listening to Ann...the voice of common sense....yes the people have had ENOUGH....be voting REFORM
The majority are fed up. Vote Reform.
Very well said totally agree
Voting isn't getting us out of this!
@@rightray7463 I suggest you read my original comment again.
If Reform target Red Wall areas you could well see change. Many people in these areas are politically homeless and looking for change.
Can't, they have no presence in West Yorkshire
Take the lead off Ann, if she can change to another party so can we. She talks so much sense. Reform party for me
As always Ann says what many of us think and feel.
She is controlled opposition.
She knows how dire the situation is but never says it!
@@seansmith445 Absolutely correct. She worships the group behind our destruction. Self-obliteration is her mitzvot!
@@seansmith445Get your ears tested.
@@macdonaldmauricethis 'silly old biddy' has more intellect, passion, experience and energy than most people. In my opinion, is not only is she valid, a lot of people can learn a great deal from her.
NO VOTE NO CONSENT NO PROBLEM
I have been voting against the 2 main party's for a while now and will continue to do so.
The problem is everyone's frightened of being sued or losing their job for being normal.
Even now she is a very moderate voice when something far more radical is called for!
@seansmith445 yes it is.
Aye, exactly my friend!
Having that feeling of being afraid is exactly the response that they are relying on - pushing against government is never easy I woulda thunk 🤫
First time for us as it were. 🤭🕊️🌻
That's when you know you are not free. We have an authoritarian scheme run at organisational level and sanctioned by government and its creeping laws.
NO VOTE NO CONSENT NO PROBLEM
Vote Reform
Yes, but WE tell them what to do.
Anne you are quite right UK heading down a rabbit hole, just like usa
More like a toilet hole
Yup - & watch out for the ferrets waiting to ruin your day (life!)
The big difference. In the US people are armed.
@@golden.lights.twinkle2329
The rug is being pulled out from underneath us. Guns will make no difference.
@@golden.lights.twinkle2329 And I think the Powers that Shouldn't Be are mindful of that...
Out all mps signed up to WEF, disband WHO then go for Swabb, Faucci & sorros !
Makes you wonder why Reform aren’t already polling 40%.
Because they do absolutely nothing to promote themselves. A half-assed rant on some obscure news channel ever Sunday isn't gonna get the votes. They should have run for local elections, they should be in every town canvassing, they should be at the front of every picket line and anti immigration protest showing who's side they're on, they should have declared war on the BBC and got some media coverage, we should have got something to show us that they're serious but what do we get?
I've reached the conclusion that Tice is just controlled opposition.
Explain
You have to ask who is in charge of the polls, and are they rigged to make you vote a certain way. You see it all the time people say its not worth voting Reform so they will vote Tory to keep Labour out. I say go with your convictions and vote Reform and we might be surprised.
The polling is corrupt and false. They ask questions in a certain way to get the result they want. Propaganda!! Manipulation!!! Vote Reform everyone, let's help them get noticed.
NEED ANN AS THEIR LEADER THEN TGHE WILL BE
Ann is phenomenal ❤
What better endorsement can there be tban for Reform UK , than to have Anne Widdercombe join their party ?
I hope that her example will inspire everyone that there is a
credible alternative . ?
In Anne , we trust ......
God Bless our Ann,Love her to bits.The Prime Minister that should have been
Never had to make a hard decision and never will .Loves shouting from the sideline.
@@Kevin-lf4xxReally, what have you done, that's right SOD ALL.
If she became prime minister nowadays she'd get the Liz Truss treatment within days.
Ann Widdecombe for Pm or if not mp in 2024,if not we are all doomed, vote reform UK!
@@Kevin-lf4xxwell said Kev
Another wokie lefty liberal seeking attention talking crap….Ann puts herself on frontline and has done for a number of years…WTF have been doing my old mucker? 🤔
She fights for the British people and your right to live in a true Democratic country ✊🏻✊🏼✊🏿✊🏾…stand together and win…👍
It is weird how I laughed at this woman years ago when she was interviewed by LouisTheroux, now I consider her such a voice of reason.
I think we're from the same ilk !
You being brought down a rabbit hole perhaps?
@@New-ye2flTo join you ? Never, hate globalism with a fervour, hate Marxism ditto, aka Woke activism and elite lefties !
It's called "growing up". We all go through it. I felt the same about Farage. Till I actually started listening to him instead of the haters. You can't barrage the Farage 👍💖💪
NEVER cut Ann off mid-sentence!!!!
Well said, Anne! I hope people HAVE had enough.
They haven't, they want more.
FREEDOM! LET THE NATION CRY OUT!
Love your enemy, Do good to those who hate you. Do not pay back evil for evil. If someone ask for your coat give them your jacket as well,. If someone strikes you on the one side of your face turn the other cheek.If someone ask you to walk one mile with them, walk two. The parable he told about the good Samaritan implies that it is better to be good/ charitable to strangers (immigrants). Your neighbours are not only the ones who live close by, but those who live far and wide. Do not call anyone Raca. Judge not lest you should be judged by the same measure you judge.. Remove the post from your eye so you can see clearly to remove the straw from someone else's eye.
Out of faith hope and charity, charity is the greatest When you give, the right hand should not know what the left hand is doing. And it goes on. .
No chance! Voter's are dumb. Vote, whinge moan cry. Vote, whinge moan cry. Vote whinge moan cry. Repeat endlessly 😢
@@rowellwilkinsonwilkinson5235That's the biggest load of LAHOOZEEERRR Bollox ive EVER EVER READ!!! What a joke 😅😅😂😂😂😂😂
I can't believe how much our country has changed in such a short time. In fact things changed when sidiq khan became London mayor.
Immigrations gone up, Crime gone up,
He should be removed with a no confidence vote in my opinion.
He should be removed FULL STOP.
He's worse than you think, present chairman of c20 cities, Google it and read their eco plans
Couldn't agree with you more
Changed a lot more since they seen how much power and control they have over people during covid scares and the power grab they attained
Muslims have confidence in him.
Both Labour and Conservative and Libs are all the same.
The LibLabCon has been fooling the masses for decades.
Allister Heath has it 100 per cent right. As Ann says: Reform!
only if shes the leader
@@doreenbates She would be a great leader.
Britain must be the only country where people from non indigenous families can be in parliament let alone become Prime Minister. In Africa only indigenous people are allowed to run a country and their families have been Africa for generations.
Ann should be the leader of Reform , she has more clout and political experience, is a great speaker and straight down the middle . People recognise her, I’m sure more would vote for them if she was at the helm
I would vote Reform if Ann was Leader. I do not take to Tice at all.
I love Anne Widdecombe, she is a constant voice of reason in these increasingly turbulent times. I would vote Reform just for her. I always voted Conservative until the Brexit Party came into being.
Vote for a British nationalist part that put their own people first
British politics have changed and all its done is overcomplicated underminded. And underestimated the British prople we are fed up to the teeth 😬 we are being took for mugs !
Don't forget the Energy Bill which will allow forced entry to install smart meters and failure to allow this, and you could end up with a £15,000 fine one year in prison.
Communism by the back door!
Like a watermelon, green on the outside but red on the inside!
Fukushima boxes with added lens and speakers.
£15,000 and 1 year jail is for failing to change the boilers!
@@pamt7740 For Heat pumps that already has been removed in thousands as they don't work.
And one third of the UK has homes not designed to fit them?
what ever it's for, it should be illegal @@pamt7740
Love Ann. Always speaks her mind and speaks sense.
We need rid of "PARLIAMENT"and then look after ourselves
There is the old saying "if you do what you've always done, you'll get what you've always got". Only when people start to question why they are voting for the party/person they "always" vote for, will you get change. Will the Welsh continue to vote Labour after the 20 mph law, and the complete mess Labour have made of Wales ? One hopes so, but I'm not holding my breath on this one !
Vote Reform get rid of these dictators.
They're too small for that!
@@honeybunch6473 Every walk you take is beginning with ONE STEP!
How do you expect them to grow, if no one is willing to join in and make them grow????
You joining in = growth! Can you afford "sitting it out" with Labour or Tory?
And illegal MIGRANTS
Vote reform UK Party people.
Once again, hurrah for Widdy! Heath's assessment of the current situation is the best I have yet seen.
Parliamentary members need disolving. Un elected PM. I wouldnt trust tory or labour. Reform..
Reform are going to need more than 2 and 3%
Exactly Ann!
These party's need to join together that would show people that it's not just about the party line.
Do you want them to double up on the tyranny we already have?
Agreed, they're too small on their own and my fear it eill be a wasted vote.
@@honeybunch6473
But you don't fear voting Tory or Labour (to get the same *hit as today) will be a wasted vote?????
Tory and Labour are using all their time in Parliament squabbling and ABSOLUTELY NOTHING is being done FOR THE PEOPLE. Do you really think anything will be different, just by changing seats between those two parties???
You wait till the next lockdown they can stay locked up but I won't fall for it again.
VOTE REFORM UK PEOPLE 🇬🇧
Ask yourself how are your kids ever going to afford to buy a house or buy a electric car 🚗🙈
Never. They can buy a second-hand bike. That's all I had when I was a kid.
Not just the kids us as well. A spare 30k is going to be a problem for most of us unless you are prima Donna footballer carrying out a criminally overpaid hobby on 100k a week, time they contributed more to the running of this country!!!
Why buy an electric car if the government dream plan is to remove all cars from public ownership. When that plan was discussed last week it did not differentiate between electric and petrol engines.
Come on Ann stand for PM 👏👏
She is controlled opposition.
@@seansmith445Change the ridiculous record.
Absolutely spot on Ann !
Well said Ann 👏👏👏👏
It is quite comical to call the UK duopoly (Labour vs Conservative) political system a democratic people's government. Where it is infinitely difficult for other parties to gain a foothold. The democracies of other European countries consist of many different parties in fierce competition for the favor of the electorate. The UK is - in my opinion - in a severe democratic deficit.
in case you hadn't noticed there is no democracy in the UK anymore. Both main parties are engaged in a genocide operation against the people like most countries of the world. In any event democracy is a terrible way to govern a country or organise management of infrastructure. We just need rid of any government structures as all they do is legislate for problems and tyranny.
NO VOTE NO CONSENT NO PROBLEM
The parties in other European countries then join in coalitions which seem to be just as unrepresentative of the wishes of their populations as do the British parties.
the funny thing is, if more people voted for who they actually wanted there would be more coalition governments.
@@macdonaldmaurice I fully agree. What I was attempting to say is that there seems to be a widening difference between the desires and wellbeing of the electorate and the actions of politicians. Whether these politicians are members of single parties or in coalitions of different parties doesn't appear IMO to make much difference.
I do trust Ann Widdecombe .. I’d love to see her as PM for a term and save us before it’s too late 🤷🏼♂️🙏🏼 REFORM is essential .. please be brave citizens and choose wisely 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
I wonder how the corporates and the banks would react to that? They weren't slow off the mark to oust Truss.
I joined reform in March when they had 170,000 members and in July that figure was up to 300,000+ so it is growing and if people wake up b4 it is too late they have a chance in 2024,spread the word!!!
I will be voting Reform that's for certain.
@@robertrowell7271 👍🏼🙏🏼
@@jameshaydon8922 👍🏼🙏🏼
I'm voting Reform too
Yep. People whinging but not acting. My Socialist dad.
That opening statement sums up my absolute disenchantment, disgust and total anger at these politicians who disregard us totally and brand us as anything under the sun just because we don't cow tow to their Liberal elitist views
Is the house of commons and lords heated with a heatpump? Don't want our precious pensioners freezing to death while sleeping through the next dictates. 😂
🇦🇺 I said a couple of years ago, with covid the evil tasted dictatorship and liked it. Unfortunately the west is finished as is democracy
Our lords & masters BLACK ROCK // VAN GUARD rule the world
More money than God and still unable to make a profit.
I agree with Anne. Keep on voting for the same main party each time, even in fear of letting the other main party in, and you will keep on getting the same out of touch dictatorship. The people of this Country have voted for all these stupid laws and edicts. We must no longer vote for these people.
Have said it myself many times but you just can't get through to a lot of people.
Well said Anne ❤
Brilliant description by Allister Heath.
yes, but if we put Labour in we get more of the same but at a greater intensity, we need a new political system that works for the people and have NO POLITICAL PARTIES.
we want effective administration and stewardship, not the tyranny we are getting from all angles.
Vote Reform then.
Bring it on, if it kicks off they will shite themselves..
I am with you we need to get this lit of abhorrent dictators out in 2024.If not it will kick off cos the people have had enough, if anarchy and civil war occur sunak and his cronies have only got themselves to blame, bring it on can't wait!!
change - can be out of the frying pan into the fire - to change MUST BE TO VOTE FOR A REFORM PARTY WITH A CLEAR TRANSPARENT AGENDA FOR - that has to be clear?
reforms got my vote
We will keep their lives short and their minds weak while pretending to do the opposite.
Red or Blue… they don’t like you.
I for one am done with all ! Reform party for me with Richard Tice!!
The establishment laughs at us. We, the UK taxpayer, are a perfect example of turkey's voting for Christmas...
Canada has become unrecognizable from the country I grew up in, and in a very short period of time. Whether the liberals will dump Trudeau is questionable. Party affiliation is very strong in parts of the country.
They will hold onto him.
Praise God, People Are Getting It! That This Insanity Is Contrived! 🙏 🤲 ✝️
Vote Reform UK 🇬🇧
WE WANT OUR COUNTRY BACK.
Ann for PM
Reform, Reclaim and UKIP need to unite and provide an alternative party. Reform on its own is too small for any change. Votes from Tories will bring Labour in. Labour is WORSE than the Conservatives. Starmer is pro EU, an ex human rights lawyer and skready warming up to woke Canada by visiting Trudeau.
I’m a woman who is going to keep driving my petrol car
Until they turn off the petrol.
go for diesel then you can potentially make your own fuel!
@@jsc2606you need an old diesel with a Bosch mechanical injection pump. Something like a pre hdi Peugeot diesel works quite well.
Too right, stuff the conservatives!!
The country is desperate for a new party that's not diversified pc woke but Reform hardly fields many candidates.
They will have a candidate in every constituency next year this is what Richard tice has pledged to do. If nigel farage stands he will win with a landslide watch this space and vote reform UK.
I will never vote conservatives again! I've voted for them for 45 years, never again. I never voted for extremist net zero, or wokism, or the WEF or any thing other than good management of the budget, lower taxes and the right to move about as you wish.
Construct the gallows.
Love to help on that.
Witholding payment will be more painful to them.
Reform, Reform, Reform.
There should be, but too many brain washed sheeple I’m afraid!
Vote for Richard tice reclame party it's the last chance to reclame the rights of brittish people .
It's true.
There are still so many that I know who haven't even heard of U.K.Reform and the wonderful Richard Tice !!
Spread the word on every utube comments
REFORM! Tell your family and friends and everyone you know. We have been failed with contempt for years by the main parties.Don’t blame anyone else if you vote for them again,you are the problem! We have just had Battle of Britain day in the name of all who fought and died for our country we must now fight to justify their sacrifice.
Am already doing that and everybody else needs to jump on the reform train and win in 2024 or we are all doomed!! 🚂😭
Fortunately you can solve all this at the ballot box. You can vote for the woke globalist Labour party or you can vote for the woke globalist Tory party. Or of course, if you fancy a protest vote you can vote for the woke globalist Greens or woke globalist LibDems. What's the problem?
Be brave,vote Reform.
spot on Anne
I agree with Ann!!!! ❤
I MIGHT ONLY VOTE FOR ONE PERSON, ''MYSELF'' BECAUSE LOOKS LIKE PARLIAMENTS MIGHT BE BURNING FROM THE EVIL LOT INSIDE THEM...
NET ZERO IS IMPOSSIBLE AND I LAUGH AT YOU ALL, FOR ################### MANY THINGS UP AND MORE
She is so right
Ann should be reform leader !!!
What a great quote. The Sunday Mail journalist Andrew Alexander wrote an article about the political class in the1980s saying, "it's not that the mainstream parties pursue policies out of kilter with voters, but they pursue policies diametrically opposed to them".
Why do the videos keep cutting off?
We need PR so we don't just get blue or red.
Did Ann ever push for it when she was an MP?
It is true!
Nwo thats what am hearing
Absolutely !
I've never been so utterly disillusioned with politics. I truly believe the current crop of main party politicians we have right now are the poorest quality politicians there's ever been in this country. I would love to see some politicians from working class backgrounds break through. People that have actually experienced deprived areas and done an actual hard days work before. I'm sick to death of the elite club Eton types who are completely clueless about the real world, completely disconnected from real people and have never worked a real job in their life.
The want to do three years In a metal foundry scalding steam black moulding sand, white hot furnaces white hot castings, heat dust and noise .they wouldn't last an hour.
Wise words, as usual, from Ms. Widdico. She really deserves a much higher honour than the MBE. For whatever good it will do, I will be voting for Reform at the next general election. I won't be deterred by the thought it may be, for want of a better expression, "a wasted vote". Decades of voting Tory in a seat that has been in Labour hands all my life has also been "a wasted vote".
Not too long ago most of our politicians would have had their heads detached from their bodies for what they've done to this country. It may still come that !
I agree with Anne, I have zero trust for the politicians currently in place. There actions alone speak of politicians who are not going to change things in this country for the better. I’ve had enough of them and am willing to take that initial step into the unknown and vote reform, my thinking on this , ‘ better the devil you know, than the devil you don’t’ no longer serves the British public. Time to try something new, for me.
Ann is strong and brilliant so much wisdom and common sense spot on on
Voting? What a laugh.
The next PM and government has probably already been chosen for us; we never have any say!
Well I had enough; as many of us have, if Reform Uk are not in my area, I am definitely spoiling my vote.....
People might say spoiling your vote is a waste of time, but if enough people do it, it's not, in anycase what other choice is there? So your going to vote for Labour just to get rid of the Cons? How many times has that happened over the years? Every time one of these two parties get in, they balls things up..
No more, that cycle has to come to an end.....
