Where is the moral panic?

Where are @lisanandy and @Keir_Starmer?

Or are we saying Rod Liddle can use his national platform to call for state violence and it’s fine

But if Bob Vylan chants about actual state violence it’s “incitement”?

At least try to be consistent.

Britain *is* broken.

Brexit broke Britain.

And Nigel Farage is benefitting from the wreckage.

This was always my greatest fear with Brexit - that it would bring about stagnant conditions that favour extreme populism.

Much like drug addiction causes crashes that make the drug more seductive.

Nigel Farage "Maybe we are nearing the end of time for the democratic process, I want to be Prime Minister to 'change' things."

That's as obvious a shout of "I'm a fascist and I want to be dictator." As you are ever going to get,

"We are very sorry about your cancer diagnosis, but you should have thought of that 20 years ago, when you decided to marry a Danish man."
This really is not getting the attention it should. The Tories' latest proposal is to exclude *any household that includes any foreign national from any benefit*.

And when asked about it, they keep citing small boat crossings - a minute fraction of migration - to justify it. ~AA

“When you want to say something rightwing but actually looking at who is eligible to claim benefits is too much like hard work” - this policy is the most Badenoch era policy we’ve yet seen.

In New York, ICE detained a busload of farmworkers that were actively involved in a union drive.

In Washington state, ICE dragged a farmworkers’ rights activist and leader out of his car to detain him.

Be warned: attacking unions is a hallmark of fascism.

Never vote Reform!
Nigel Farage has told ITV News the first thing he would do as prime minister if he won a general election would be to remove the UK from the European Convention on Human Rights

That alone is good reason never to vote for Reform UK.

THIS IS WHY
