Reform are opening the dialogue for racists to abuse others, and their racism has been there for years but previously hidden beneath a veneer of social ‘normality’.
Come on Keir, give your real views!
Why ‘fears’. No surprise at all if he moved across.
Absolute morons!
Love that one
Anything for a vote
They are still frothing at the mouth about Labour’s victory!
Agree, they need better comms.
There has been a media pile on for the Labour government since about day 3 of their tenure, with flag waving support for the far right running alongside this. There are daily headlines in the majority of the media expressing outrage at Labour, latest being Angela Rayner.
I know, I was being ironic.
Thank goodness we have these guys to protect our women and children.
I think no matter how many times this is repeated, it doesn’t penetrate certain skulls, or people choose not to hear.
At first sight these views are ridiculous and almost laughable, but thinking of the traumatic experiences women and girls go through, usually from partners/people they know, these views are downright dangerous. Those words are designed to whip up increasing tensions.
I’d complained to the BBC recently about their reporting (concentrating on farage etc) but was told that they aren’t breaking editorial guidelines. 🤷♀️
Hopefully, a one hit wonder.
Since farage talked about sending refugees to Afghanistan, not sure how returning women and children there (risk of death) protects ‘our women and children’. I guess he only means white women and children and, just to remind him, women don’t belong to any bloke.
Says everything there is to say about reform.
Where is Starmers response, hopefully coming soon.
They’ve forgotten to wear their black shirts.
Didn’t hear any cross examination from ‘journalists’.
Says it all about the quality of journalists.
A good look for farage, colleagues with the taliban.
Nice guy, emboldening the racists.
Did any journalist ask farage why numbers of people arriving by boats has risen exponentially since brexit?
Every day, msm cheerleads the far right ‘politician’, including the BBC, the national broadcaster.
Totally right. I’ve never understood why they don’t do that on TV political debates. I’ve seen it at hustings.
Journalists should do a lot more cross examination of farage, including asking him about the impact of Brexit on small boat crossings. No doubt he will drone on about leaving ECHR etc etc
Farage supporters are like turkeys running towards Xmas.
Car mania (and the commonly expressed ‘rights of drivers’) still exists in many places, including where I live in Birmingham, UK
Reforms conventions are going to be busy hosting political prisoners!
I think they need a new comms team.
Total morons.
She will be the guest of (dis)honour at the deform conventions.
Thanks Brexiteers.
She said she was guilty, but now says that was everyone else’s fault!
Clegg, the master of student debt, whilst chasing the millions for himself.
Connolly said ‘set fire to all the fucking hotels full of the bastards for all I care, while you’re at it take the treacherous government and politicians with them’. I guess she might feel differently if someone threatened her or her family in the same way. No, not a political prisoner.
‘Farage vows mass deportations to tackle small boats’. (BBC news 23 August). He says there is a ‘massive crisis which threatens public security and it could lead to public disorder. I was thinking about who is encouraging ‘peaceful protests’ this year whilst knowing how these escalate.
Lowe’s nationally important ‘news’ about guns.
Heard nothing but deform since July 24.
Still got 4 years to the next election😄
That’s right, and then some mega companies ‘can’t afford’ to pay their workers more than minimum pay.
Hi Rupert, most people are extremely concerned about the plight of Gaza’s children. A small number of people (including you) are dismissive and abusive. Your comments illustrate your lack of compassion and your ignorance.
Lowe sounds like a broken record with one topic he drones on about day after day.
Those 2 ‘parties’ never give up being absurd and ignorant.
Deform will sort it out then (not).
Haha, the right wing rags never give up..
Get the fact checker ready.
That’s the tory contribution to the chaos their regimes caused.
Seeing comments online, just don’t vote reform if you want speed limits and safer communities.
Your ex was part of the problem Sarah. As are right wing rags such as the daily fail.
It feels like an invasion of middle aged men across England. Mind you, a sizeable number of locals must’ve voted them in (🤔).
Says it all really
‘Trump administration accuses UK of failing to uphold human rights’ The Guardian, 13 August 25. It cited safe access zones around abortion clinics, regulation on online hate speech, intervention after Southport attacks and so on. Strange coming from the US considering ICE etc etc
Come on Keir, tell us what Labour is doing and the differences the public will see, rather than trying to sound like deform.
Of course!
These blokes are just awful. Older blokes harking back to the 50s, talking about keeping women safe! They should look at some domestic abuse/homicide reviews and see who the perpetrators really are.
Liz needs a lie down, but seriously - sprouts rubbish at every opportunity.
This guy’s brain is literally frazzled.
Funny that, considering anyone who disagreed with or challenged tory rhetoric would be told that they are ‘woke’ or ‘far left’!
This rhetoric consumes increasing numbers of ‘journalists’ and right wing ‘politicians’ and it continues to gain traction with many people. It is a poison being spread deliberately by those seeking power and control, mixing racist views with misogyny and aggression. Government must address it.
Tory party isn’t far right enough for them.
I watched a piece by Jeremy Bowen on BBC news yesterday talking about the plight of the Gazans- starving, neighbourhoods destroyed, actions of settlers, injury and death. This was followed by reporting of 500 arrests at Palestine support demo. Madness.
Top Tories should worry about ‘their’ daughters being assaulted by family members and family ‘friends’, instead of spouting this trash.
Daily Excess - of course they ‘think’ that..
Anyone want public services?
Blame the oldies, not the super rich, giant corporations and wealthy tax dodgers.
If you want to see Michelle Mone kicked out of the House of Lords and arrested until she pays the £232,000,000 she owes give this a RT. If you want Rishi Sunak's involvement in the £14,900,000,000 PPE Fraud he covered up investigated, LIKE.
Mr Austerity, no thanks, not interested.
Badenoch has a severe case of amnesia.
Two in five arrested for last summer’s UK riots had been reported for domestic abuse (The Guardian 26 July) Surprise, surprise.
Nothing like far right politicians (aka businessmen) inciting violence.
Why would a cabinet member defend aggressive racists?
The Guardian article today doesn’t mention far right ‘politicians’ stoking the fires of racism and misinformation.
Inflamed by certain right wing media
Send in DOGE
Just a play on farage’s own words.
Remember #farage riots? He should be locked up immediately …
‘Deliberate obstruction’ sounds like the tory bull**** about ‘woke civil servants’. I agree that Kuenssberg forgot how to be a journalist and challenge his rambling opinions.
Nationalise and go after shareholders who have milked the system.
Kuenssberg is a flag waver for farage.
Parroting the idiot in the US.
Farage on Kuenssberg again, showing BBC continue to flag wave and promote him and his ‘party’ (business).
Brain free woman.
Rupert wants them sent back to certain death.
I don’t think so Nige. There are too many older white men setting standards and rules which fail future generations.
No thought for future generations.
Asap
If the only way you'll ever hear someone call out Nigel Farage's destructive, divisive politics on the BBC is for me to do it, then so be it.
Turncoats know the tories are an irrelevance.
Reeves in The Guardian today talking about ‘trickle down’ and ‘pounds in pockets for working people’. This in relation to deregulation of the city. Not sure if Labour listened to Gove and his ‘trickle down’ mantra - which never happened.
Says the man with an EU passport. Farage is a giant hypocrite.
Listening to ITV news about Starmer and Macrons agreement about ‘the boats’. Guess who ITV cuts to for his opinion - farage. The msm continues to cheerlead this person.
I always think it strange that Farage has ensured that he and family have EU passports.
Views from Isle of Mull. Peace and tranquility.
Sadly, these headlines about ‘bosses’ pay, seem so familiar.
I made a complaint to the BBC about their promoting Reform and was told ‘we are not breaking editorial guidelines’.
People can be gullible/thick or both.
Interesting read.
Labour needs a new comms team
