Tell me again how this BBC editorialising is just my cognitive bias... This isn't a quote from anywhere. It's just the BBC's description of this disgraced, divisive politician.

Johnson culled the Tory Party of all but its grimmest dregs & now the grimmest of the grimmest dregs are defecting to Reform. It would be funny if it didn't alllow them, along with Farage, to pretend that they're not responsible for the state of the nation.

Seems that Nigel Farage's first cabinet - should the old fraud succeed - will mainly comprise failures from the Tories and UKIP. Not a cheering prospect.

Nigel Farage, has proposed a mass deportation plan called "Operation Restoring Justice," which includes creating a "UK Deportation Command" modelled on the U.S. ICE.

Best traitors on any #thetraitors ever.
Well done to Stephen and Rachel. They truly deserved the win!
I loved that they actually stayed true to each other until the end.
I also appreciated the fact they found the gameplay difficult and weren’t “gleeful” about all the lying to their pals.

7. Immigrants, asylum seekers, Muslims, women, transgender people, disabled people, students, protesters: anyone and everyone must be blamed for our dysfunctions, except those causing them. Ever more extreme “culture wars” (a euphemism for divide-and-rule) must be waged.

This has to be one of the worst things that the ignorant twat has said :
“We’ve never needed them. They’ll say they sent some troops to Afghanistan … and they did, they stayed a little back, a little off the frontlines.”
Incidentally talking of twats, where is Farage ?
