Ridiculous comment.

1. Tickets weren't "3 times" the going rate at all.
2. Thanks to the FA scrapping replays, smaller clubs have just one chance to make the most of days like that.

They are certainly capturing disaffected voters. What is disturbing is that you've identified exactly what they are and are still standing in support with them.

On today of all days, VE Day, that is a deeply depressing thing to see.

Reform are the very definition of the establishment.

Funded by billionaires, ran by the elites bred in the public school system and fixated on hammering institutions there to help the people most need (openly calling for privatisation of the NHS)

They have conned you.
May 8, 2025 at 11:55 AM
And this is where we diverge.

I have described what actually happened (Farage perpetuating a lie that directly led to the riots) & you're claiming that reality isn't real.

At this point you're moving into "flat earther" levels of denial.

Farage (and Tate) were directly responsible for the riots.

Another day, another casebof Farage warping reality to suit his own rhetoric.

Of course, what he forgets to mention is that without the Brexit he fought for this trade deal wouldn't have even been a factor.

Once again, he heckles from the sidelines & takes no responsibility for his actions
May 8, 2025 at 10:06 AM
No.

One lie was told. That the killer was an asylum seekers when he was born & raised in Cardiff to a Christian family.

That lie led directly to the riots and Farage (along with Andrew Tate) were directly responsible.

That's not an opinion, that's just what happened.

...the rich, has such littlemregard for the working class of this country that he lied about the Southport killer KNOWING what would happen, spends his free time galavanting with fox hunts and is bankrolled by billionaires.

He is not a "man of the people" & couldn't care less about the UK
May 8, 2025 at 6:58 AM
Mate, you're engaging in an exercise of "splitting hairs" and missing the point.

The man is not the "working class hero" he is pretending to be.

He talks openly about wanting privatise the NHS, laudednTruss' disastrous budget as "the finest tory budget" he'd ever seen (full of tax breaks for...
May 8, 2025 at 6:56 AM
And Farage is of the same ilk.

Privately educated former hedge fund manager bankrolled by Billionaires.

This idea that he's some kind of "working class hero" is the ultimate grift.

He wouldn't piss on either of us if we were on fire.
May 7, 2025 at 6:17 PM
So your issue is nothing to do with "leftist tropes" nor that he's a "blairite"...

....It's that he's following the model of the most elitist, right wing version of the Tories we've ever seen.

Now we're getting somewhere.
May 7, 2025 at 4:22 PM
Except for the fact that Blair's work was wiped out by 14 years of the Tories.

Education - Decimated
NHS - gone from the highest satisfaction scores to the lowest
Economy - Trashed
Public Services - Trashed
Armed Forces - Stretched to breaking point

So no, the 25 years of Blair point holds 0 water

...directly to Starmer's deal with India.
* MORE red tape for couriers, logistic companies & importers/exporters & increased costs.
* More difficult for Brits to live & study abroad (and vice versa).
* Increase in non EU immigration & foreign aid as a result of our neednfor new trade deals.
May 7, 2025 at 12:31 PM
We've already covered this.

But, if you're honestly pretending not to understand the impact of Brexit:

* Economic downturn with a permanent hit of 4% to GDP
* Tearing up the Dublin agreement leading to the increased dinghy crossings
* The need for brand new trade agreements leading....
May 7, 2025 at 12:29 PM
You haven't asked a question.
May 7, 2025 at 9:31 AM
What challenge?

You haven't challenged me on any level.

All you've done is demonstrate your own ignorance, misunderstanding of political ideologies and chucked around a few petty, playground insults.

In short, this isntngoing as well for you as you think it is son.
May 7, 2025 at 7:57 AM
"Blairite" and "leftist" are two very different things.

If you don't understand even the most basic elements of political ideologies how do you expect to be taken seriously?

Regardless, the fact remains that Farage has done nothing of note to improve this country. Not. One. Thing.
May 7, 2025 at 7:17 AM
EU membership is (and always was) a very centrist position. This is exactly why the likes of Corbyn and Galloway were just as opposed to the EU as Farage and Co (albeit for different reasons).

So, your "leftist trope" line shows just how little you understand about the subject.
May 7, 2025 at 6:44 AM
The point is the same either way.
May 6, 2025 at 7:58 PM
And, predictably, when presented with reality you resort to petulance.

The fact is that your boy Farage is a grifter, a con artist and a liar.

And you have naively fallen for it.

Yet, somehow, you're angry at the people pointing that out to you.

I actually feel sorry for you.
May 6, 2025 at 7:07 PM
That is literal fascism and indoctrination
May 6, 2025 at 3:09 PM
Once again, look at the impact of Brexit.
