How can the government possibly deal with the threat from Reform? I dunno, have you heard of A DRACONIAN CRACKDOWN? Imagine Farage was a vegetarian Marxist and just do whatever you would do to that guy.

It's simple, if you throw paint on a plane then you get proscribed and any 80 year olds defending you get arrested.
If you ask people to burn down hotels, and they try, you get an interview in the Telegraph and positive coverage in the BBC.
That's sensible, proportionate policing.

New etymology image: "gun" is short for "Gunilda"
"Lady Gunilda" was a Middle English nickname for large siege weapons.
This was shortened to "gonnilde", and then to "gunne".
"Gunne" ultimately evolved into the modern English word "gun".

The Prosecco Stormfront moniker has always been the best description of the UK TERF movement, both on Mumsnet and off of it.

Heads up, the Jeremy Vine show are sniffing around trying to get a trans woman on their show to "debate" if the UK was right to try and take away our rights etc.
Don't say yes if invited. It's a gotcha. They're aiming to set up a panel with multiple anti trans voices platformed as authoratative.
