[shamelessly both promoting Dorian's point and adding my own]
Farage has always been very good at doing sort of golf club racism. He has an instinctive grasp on what codes to use and how much he can say before people recoil that his heirs and imitators lack. (...more)

It's revealing about taboos around racism that the visceral bullying racism of schoolboy Farage cuts through while the much more consequential thinly veiled racism of adult Farage doesn't.

The discussion on this point on the Today programme just now did not make for a calm start to the day.
