Saturday, 10 May 2025 — The Planning Motive
By choosing the heading REFORM IS A RACIST PARTY it immediately brands the person receiving this leaflet and who is thinking of voting for Reform, as a racist. It is antagonistic not educative. The likely response will be to throw away the leaflet before reading it. There are many reasons people will vote for Reform. Some of it will be due to their conviction that migrants are stealing jobs, homes, and services, others not. Many more will be voting for Reform because they have been betrayed by both the Tory Party and the Labour Party, both of whom have made their lives worse and harder. Without these betrayals Reform would be a fringe party as can be seen from a poll taken after the local elections a few days ago, when Reform’s share of the vote shot up. Standard of living issues dominated the poll, not migrancy.
