let her become the tory leader and kill the party once and for all.
the only problem is that it lets farages new British Union of fascists party take their place.

General Discussion for politics in the UK.
Please don't post to both !uk_politics@feddit.uk and !unitedkingdom@feddit.uk .
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric politics, and should be either a link to a reputable news source for news, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread. (These things should be publicly discussed)
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.
!ukpolitics@lemm.ee appears to have vanished! We can still see cached content from this link, but goodbye I guess! :'(

MODERATORS
Fairly sure that's going to happen regardless. They will either chase the right-wing idiot vote and essentially become the same party. Or reform will eat their votershare.
It's a no-win situation for them really. It's 100% their fault for flirting with the hard right to begin with, if they'd not done that they wouldn't be losing voters now. The problem is a lot of their voters have always been extremists, and have never had a party outlet for those views until now.
