Suspension and recall petition will be interesting. Does he get in again at a by election with the whole media focussed on him never going to clacton, rarely being in parliament and having been bought by a crypto tycoon?
I think thats down to restore, the only good thing about restore is that hopefully it splits the hard right vote. If they stick up candidate maybe it opens a pathway for a candidate who isnt reform/restore. If they were not to contest then i think he might.
Long term I think we will see a real chnage to 2 or 3 party politics, hung parliaments much more often and a lot more upheaval, governments collapsing and I think we're in an age where we do see a PM lasting a couple of years before the knives come out
You only have to look at a YouTube video of his exchanges yesterday on a more sympathetic right wing platform, for example the Julia Hartley Brewer confrontation to see that his supporters care not one jot about this. In fact going by all the comments it only makes them like him more; they really don't care that he trousers £5M when they're probably on £300 a week. It's a very Trumpian syndrome. The only hope is that the media do finally chase him so much that he gets fed up and sods off, taking his merry band of supporters with. My hunch is we are getting closer to a return to two main parties, the Tories are ever so slowly starting to sort themselves out.

Does it matter? His supporters dont care about corruption.
They just care about kicking out anyone whos skin tone is mot the same as theirs. They have no idea abour what his other policies will mean but he likes a fag and a pint and he says stop the boats alot and that's enough for them
Obviously I despise Far*ge and Ref*rm and all they stand for, but I think it's counter-productive to insist that ALL of his or Ref*rm's supporters are set in stone, immutable racists.
Logically there are some in the continuum who are borderline and influencable, and who might be persuaded to turn away from the dark side.
You have to keep trying, I think, as unpalatable as that can seem at times.
Good work by Philogene...... GREAT WORK BY PHILOGENE!!!

I would agree that we must try and reach thst kind of demographic and i accept that not all of those voters are cars carrying Nazis but I also belive that as long as he continues to preach stop the boats his base really doesnt care about much else that he does
