Reform UK "argue" with broadcasters to get their advert on the screen

“The fact that this would have been past around mates, talked about in the pub that’s an incredibly powerful effect”.
Reform UK reveal their five minutes of static party political broadcast as a "finger in the eye to the Westminster establishment" says Mark Lucas former director of presentation for Tony Blair and Gordon Brown.

Local councils that will do their bidding, with the house of parliament unable to counter or resist any of their decisions ! This is why Labour has been busily taking over local councils and placing people faithful to their cause !

When taxes have been raised in other countries, the governments actually took in much less taxes, as people just sat on their money and didn't sell - it was a disaster.

[@txl420]

You're absolutely right, and they seem to be the only party that understand this. Cutting taxes, especially for the working class could be massively stimulating. Giving people a leg up, potentially enabling them to afford further education or put some money away to get on the property ladder is huge. This sort of boost to the economy is exactly what we need, It would create opportunity for so many people. Plus, the positive mental affect this will have on the every day working person is massive.

100% voting reform. I wont be changing my mind. Bye bye main parties, you're done.

[@shanustheanus]

Well. No. This mentality is what got us in this mess in the first place. What people say and do matters, it's the single most important point of voting. I'll be voting reform unless someone says or does something important enough to sway my vote. Its very unlikely to happen, but I'm never going to commit to vote for anybody no matter what, that's crazy.

[@stevenknill2179]

@stevenknill2179 not true. Check the latest polls. Reform is polling higher than Conservative. Labour are still miles ahead, but Reform is in second at the polls.

You don't see the political broadcast if you don't have a TV licence this is why reform needs to abolish the TV licence

[@CrazyInWeston]

I would argue you cant see the debates either by any party as it was on the BBC (the 7 way) but luckily ITV did one as well and you can see that one on catch up. (both debates were practically the same) however this was reaching those that still do pay and watch live TV. Albiet I understand that this was shown on Ch4. Prob the only broadcaster that will show it.

[@whysa4]

Yes REFORM already have a long standing pledge to abolish the TV licence

[@Geffo555]

@@whysa4 Is it just a cunning way of getting rid of Lineker?

[@JoannaHammond]

From my point of view all political debates, adverts, etc should be an exemption in the license. Haven't had a TV license in 15+ years as I don't watch live TV. Luckily some channels have been covering the debates and talking over them so can be watched on youtube. Even ITV published their debates on youtube after the broadcast, nothing from the BBC though (iPlayer only.)

They went for the 4 40 length to impact as much ppl as possible. There are those who had not changed channels yet to reach, those watching to reach and those just tuning in for the next programme to reach. It was 4 mins 40 long for maximum effect, it was a no brainer.
