Political Parties At War

It’s ok and standard for political parties to disagree and bicker. But during the last 2 years, we seem to have found that the level of intensity has risen. Current Commons seats;
403 Labour 116 Conservative 72 Liberal Democrat 13 Independent 9 SNP 8 Reform 7 Sinn Féin 5 DUP 5 Green Party 4 Plaid Cymru 8 Others
It’s obvious Labour can do some bullying with that number of MPs to call on. We have squabbling between parties, too. Keir Stamer loves throwing insults and stats at Reform, but do you know why?

They are the up-and-coming party in the polls, so anything that’s a threat to him has to be belittled. He uses words like right wing to describe reform because they threaten to put right what he cannot. Smash the gangs now, that’s the joke of 2025.

With Keir Starmer being elected to power in 2024, he seems to be clutching at a rattle like a baby keeping power as the PM. The Labour Left fails to realise the Labour Party is maybe more right than they think. Labour currently has 403 seats, which dominates the House of Commons.

But the problem is the PM uses anything to knock and call Reform. Even insinuating that Reform is far right. He uses PMQs and his own political party conference to call Reform. This is a 403-seat MP party against an 8-seat MP party. Keir Starmer is an ex-barrister and cannot tell. He wastes people’s time by not answering questions and promising things he cannot keep. Have a think, everyone, what has he done for you?

We then come to the Conservatives, who lost 253 seats in 2024, and are now left with 116 MPs. The problem is the UK pubic realise what damage they did and how much worse off they were. These days, their leader, Kemi Badenoch, is trying to rescue a party that’s hated. She seems to be doing a good job and has leadership qualities, but people remember austerity. The odd comment about reform, but not often.

She is so confident about her policies, which is good. She can be a little sharp-tempered sometimes. But taking a chance of another Conservative government may not be worth it. Does Kemi beat Angela Rainer? Absolutely, maybe Kemi should move to Labour and fill the boots of Keir Starmer when he goes soon.

With 8 MP’s, Reform are a small new party, and the leader is Nigel Farage. They have a few elected MP’s and a couple of defectors. They have been spreading their policies out for a while now, and most of them are about all the things the Prime Minister will not address. As we are not going into policies, Reform believes that too much money is wasted and can put money back in the UK’s pocket. Its immigration policies are also strong. All other parties call Reform far right, but perhaps they want a lesson in what far right means.

Reform these days is firing back and making comments about the other parties. You cannot blame them. Why shouldn’t they? But it’s sad when they asked a perfectly important question in PMQs and were not given an answer by the PM. Labour is worried about Reform because it is at the top of the polls. An 8 MP party worries a 403-seated party, and it shows they are a threat.

Sir Ed Davey and the Lib Dems have 72 MPs in their party. This party in the past sold out to the conservatives, and at the next election, Nick Clegg paid the price. This is another party, like Labour, that uses any prime time to call for reform. Have they no good policies to chat about? Or are they here just to bicker with other parties? We do not have much to say, but watch at PMQs and the news on how he uses his important time, and maybe diverting from the rotten policies they have.

The Greens are another party to call Reform. This party wants to allow all illegal immigrants to come to the UK. So, guess what? You will be paying for them; crime will go up, so think before you vote for the Greens.

It’s sad how 1 party with 8 MPs must endure comments and the party calling on a daily basis. No one believes Labour with their right-wing shouts. The conservatives are having to look electable, and the Lib Dems just tag onto other parties’ pledges. Only if these parties worked together, how good would that be for the UK?
