If rampant nativism and the self-immolating Labour party do somehow conspire to put Farage's brownshirts in Number 10, this substanceless dross should become a case study in how the fourth estate comprehensively failed us all. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

The real 'two tier' divide in British politics is between the wife of a Conservative councillor calling for refugees to be burnt alive, being treated as a brave 'political prisoner', and the protestors calling for the end of mass starvation and genocide, being treated as domestic terrorists

How disinformation infects debate: 72% of Britons who want immigrants to leave, and 47% of all Britons, think there are "much more" or "somewhat more" illegal immigrants in Britain vs legal. Numbers? Legal: 10.7m (2022 UK Census) Est. illegal: 750,000 (Oxford Mirrem Project) So, legal 14x higher

obsessed with this vague notice from the government of Nova Scotia. Like it’s definitely about the new fire restrictions, but it also looks like a poster you’d find yellowed and curled on the bulletin board of a diner in a town where locals won’t talk about their missing kids

So this is how democracies drift into dictatorship. The organs of state nod along. The satirists crack jokes and do no more. The press and other appeasers simply turn a blind eye. The people... for the most part... just groan & let it happen. And very soon the future is no more.

There must be absolutely no place for racism in Scotland. Anas Sarwar is a political rival of mine but he shouldn’t be subjected to race-baiting attacks. Farage has done more than anyone else to demonise minorities and inflame tensions. It must stop.
