Contributing sentiments towards policy:

52% : Reducing civil service headcount and the welfare bill are two staple points of conventional right-wing thinking and both turn out to be foundational to Reform's economics.
52% : Farage is speaking to the disgruntled petite-bourgeoise, and for them, especially on welfare.
46% : Rachel Reeves is blaming Brexit for Britain's economic stagnation and so its high priest now blames successive governments for failing to seize its opportunities for deregulation.
42% : Save for the reversal of new inheritance levies on farmers, Reform will not cut taxes before it reduces spending.
41% : Accusations of cant and hypocrisy are Reform's stock in trade, but Farage is making a virtue of breaking his own promise of £90 billion in unfunded tax cuts.
