"The Reform Party will contest every single seat at the next general election."
Are they really? Have they told the DUP this news yet?
Because if Reform were to get any votes of any of the established political parties from NI, it would almost certainly come form the traditional DUP bloc and while they would at best get no more than a few hundred votes in any constituency in NI, it could be enough to potentially unseat a few DUP MPs if there was enough tactical voting, along with the general temperament of a section of the electorate fed up with the DUP currently holding Stormont to ransom right now. If Reform were to stand in Lagan Valley and get enough votes to cost (DUP leader) Jeffery Donaldson his seat and have Alliance gain it instead, it would be the chefs kiss in terms of Brexiteer fuckwittery (although costing Sammy Wilson his East Antrim seat would be just as hilarious).
Not to mention that it would be interesting to watch whatever poor soul (likely parachuted in from England after being randomly "gifted" a chance by Farage & Tice) Reform would choose to stand & canvas for in West Belfast.
