so who else came to BBC channel just for the comments on this vid?
-
At the first glance at the new title, I mistook MP for PM... 😂😂😂
-
Is this the guy who called me a sussy chungus?
-
They arent laughing now
-
Even though I'm centre left, I don't resent Nigel winning a seat. Reform should have a voice given the votes they got nationally.
-
The liar has been let loose again .... sadly so ... he likes to create division and lies whenever he speaks
-
Loved his smile when the votes came in for him ! ❤❤❤❤
-
now as you promised, compaign to scrap license fee!
-
Is it weird that I miss Lord Buckethead and his wisdom?
-
You made a mistake BBC, shoulda stayed neutral and stuck to factual news 😁
-
Time for a referendum on first past the post.
-
I'd be intrigued to know the actual numbers of votes. I have a feeling that if the resistant Tory voters had joined Reform then Nigel would be PM not just MP
-
Reform had 14℅ of the votes but only 5 seats... What the hell is going on there.
-
Congratulations, Nigel!
-
I never knew that sign language could be so expressive!
-
Make this your talking point for the next 5 years: Labour got 63% of the seats with only 33% of the votes. Reform got 0.8% of the seats with 14% of the votes. The system needs: REFORM. 33% = coalition government, not thumping majority
-
Guess there will be a lot more work for actors.
-
BBC news on youtube with the comment section open, very strange.
-
Well done Nigel! The peoples MP 🤩
-
'... coming after Labour'. 😂😂😂Reform doesn't even have as many seats as independent candidates.
