‘So Jo White, why are you 15 points behind Reform?’.. ‘so Sian Berry, why are the Greens not connecting?’ .. BECAUSE you the broadcasters are massively over platforming Reform. No one else can get a word in edgeways. Keep signing &pass on folks. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/71...
Really it’s not even all four, it’s Tice and Farage. I know they have the cave man Anderson, I couldn’t tell you who the fourth member is
Worth just considering - *considering* - that the Green and LibDem people are less interesting and their messages less forcefully projected than the Führage rants. Obviously him getting on telly helps his polling, but that's coz he knows how to rile people and create front pages. Learn, don't moan.
We elect parties. Broadcasters have a responsibility to show how they’re representing us however they communicate. And the libs have had plenty of charismatic leaders. None got the coverage Farage gets. He’s no Kennedy or Ashdown. Also there’s 76 libs/greens. Plenty to choose from, some v impressive
All that is of course true. But it ignores the fact that F's abhorrent racist messaging, delivered with passion to his target audience, hits the spot. Trump likewise. I don't hear any of 'our' people able to ignite grassroots passion in the same way. MMM isn't interested in well-meaning beige.
I've said this before, Keir Starmer is not just a knight of the realm but a true princess. All that cushioning, and what keeps him awake at night is a few wizened reform peas shoved in 'uncomfortably' at the bottom of the pile!
Even Victoria Derbyshire clearly has been told to toe the line. Very disappointing.
Pity Sian didn’t feel able to challenge directly.
This happened here. It doesn't bode well.
