Our best hope then is that the rightwing out-bastard each other into oblivion. Lovely.
Competing on how many/who’d they’d deport, who loses their rights, who doesn’t deserve welfare, who isn’t disabled, who they hate…
Yes. May it all blow up in their bigoted, ugly faces before they do more harm.

Staggering that 24% of voters in this advanced country continue to believe in a bunch of entitled bigots with unworkable policies, whose very ideas put us in the abject chaos we are in. Truly God awful idiots, and I make no apology for saying that.

Bannon, Epstein, Farage and Johnson and the Plot to 'Topple' Theresa May The far-right former Trump adviser told Jeffrey Epstein that "we are overthrowing May right now" as he worked with Boris Johnson to remove the then Conservative Prime Minister from office

The messages between the far-right former Trump adviser Steve Bannon and the late convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein reveal how Bannon worked with Boris Johnson and Farage to β€œoverthrow” Theresa May at the height of the 2018 Brexit crisis in the UK

Churchwarden linked to foreign-born billionaire is behind Β£200k Reform gift The man whose firm made the donations will not discuss where the money came from, nor his ties to wealthy Farage allies who may not hold citizenship

This is what’s known as dodgy as fuck…

Farage is in hock to murky foreign billionaires, taking their money to prioritise their interests if they buy him power. He’s exploiting people’s racism and anger to pretend he’s on their side. But he’s already sold them out.

I know I keep writing about this,but the level of delusion is staggering. How do so many people think Reform will 'save the country' when it’s led by defected Tories from the worst cabinet in UK history?It’s not change, just same failures,new logo,and people cheering like it’s a revival,not a rerun.

Farage is building a care home for failed Tories. It's the weirdest political project ever.

Official word is that Russia would use the info against the UK. I find it mind-blowing that no official conclusion of interference re Brexit reached, yet
"Russian Twitter accounts posted almost 45,000 messages about Brexit in the 48 hours around last year's referendum", the Times newspaper reported

They did. Johnson's govt delayed publication of Russia report for 9 mths. "Summary" was finally published, as original doc too sensitive to release. Barely registered in public consciousness, though. Didn't get media coverage of Rayner's stamp duty, strangely..

London Muslim’s mayoral candidate for Reform UK, Cunningham, declares an all-out war on crime - but not white-collar crime. Three of her firms were forcibly struck off for missing paperwork. Yet Farage calls her a β€˜successful entrepreneur.’” #ukpolitics

Where are the poppy patriots? Why are they completely silent on this grotesque insult to our armed forces and specifically the 2,000 UK service and civilian personnel who were injured and the 457 who died in Afghanistan?

Nigel Farage apologises for 17 breaches of MPs’ code of conduct Reform UK leader, who failed to declare Β£380,000 on time, says he is computer-illiterate β€˜oddball’

No MP should be earning Β£380,000 on top of their parliamentary salary.

Farage manages it because he's turned "politainment" into a viable career. Like his US counterparts he's discovered that being a disruptor can make you very wealthy indeed.

Nigel Farage accused of peddling 'National Front-style' discrimination The Reform UK leader sparked outrage when he doubled down on his desire to tear up decades-old protections, claiming it was 'ludicrous' employers could not prioritise British nationals

The man is a racist. Of course he’ll peddle National Front-style discrimination.

As well as scrapping the Employment Rights Act and weakening workers’ rights, Farage would get rid of protection against race discrimination too.

His prejudice ruining your life.

The CURRENT sitting MP for Clacton earns Β£511,000 as a presenter for GB News and took Β£281,000 as a brand ambassador for Direct Bullion.

So maybe sit this one out, you rancid herring.

School pupils are to be taught how to tackle conspiracy theories, spot 'fake news' & root out misinformation. The Daily Mail, ajudged by Wikipedia to be an unreliable new source, is furious. You don't have to be Sherlock Holmes to work out why.

Brits want Nigel Farage to step away from the Brexit shredder Polling commissioned by POLITICO shows wide public support for Labour’s EU reset.

Brexit shitshow latest:

β€œThe poll adds to the mounting pile of evidence that….dogma about regulatory alignment has always been more of an elite obsession”

People want lower bills and less hassle and don’t care about Farage’s ego or agreeing with EU rules. Who knew?

I’m so sick of seeing Farage and co on TV all the bloody time. They now know that if thy hold a press conference on any day ending in a β€˜y’, they will be given endless coverage and broadcasting hours. All this for a party that could fit all of its MPs into a hatchback car.
