Gary Lineker: "This is the mistake the BBC makes. The BBC tries to appease the people that hate the BBC, rather than worrying about the people that love the BBC."

Can someone ask Farage or Zia Yusuf why, if they're so concerned about incitement to violence, they had Lucy Connolly as a guest star at their conference?

This very good Sun editorial of 2014 - saying it is not racist to be worried about the high levels of immigration, but it is racist to be prejudiced against all Romanians, because they are Romanian, was about Nigel Farage making an overtly prejudiced argument ("you know the difference")

First Farage platformed notorious UK anti-vaxxer, Aseem Malhotra, who insinuated that Covid vaccines caused the Royal Family’s recent cancers.
Now he’s openly trashing scientific method & evidence, pretending neither can be trusted & facts are a free for all.
This is deeply dangerous populism.

Farage asked on @lbc.co.uk whether he agreed with on the unproven link between paracetamol and autism
“I have no idea... We were told thalidomide was a v safe drug and it isn’t. who knows. I don’t know, you don’t know…when it comes to science I don’t side with anybody. It’s never settled.”

Nigel Farage just repeatedly denied – under oath! – to @raskin.house.gov
ever banning journalists he doesn’t like from his party’s conventions.
This happened to me *literally today*.

Nigel Farage is about to give evidence to the US Congress on threats to free speech in the UK.
So here's one for him: Reform UK has just banned me (and @thenewworldmag.bsky.social) from attending its party conference this weekend. www.thenewworld.co.uk/james-ball-w...

Chicken Farage bans The New World
It claims to be the party of free speech, but this last-minute decision to stop me attending tells a very different story

Tensions between the various organs of the State are a feature and not a bug of any modern political system.
Constitutions and constitutional law exist to regulate and resolve those tensions. That is their purpose.
But when those tensions harden into contradictions then you have a serious problem.
