Tommy Robinson attracted approx. 100,000. 100,000 too many for sure.

Pride attracts 1.5 million. We are 15x gayer than we are racist.

Sorry Tommy.

So.... who's going to be the first to use the word "antisemitism"?

On tonight's Question Time the BBC mention the "reform surge" but feature no Green or Lib Dem representatives (both with significant Holyrood presence) but do give a platform to Thomas Kerr from Reform who was actually elected as a conservative.

Proof positive that there are lunatics and then there are people who are just batshit mental. One of the former on current US dictator:
Marjorie Taylor Greene:
“There would no bombs falling on the people of Israel if Netanyahu had not dropped bombs on Iran first. Israel is a nuclear armed nation.”

Apparently “Israel has a right to self-defence”, but it's OK to attack a neighbouring country whilst seeking a "diplomatic solution" & obviously not using UK arms.
Yeah, right.

If anyone ever wonders how one of the least successful Westminster candidates in history has a political career, consider this from the Beeb. Even Spurs fans don't think that 3rd out of three makes you a big winner. Honestly, media folks - enough.
