Looks like a lot of people think that not only is Farage racist, so are Reform and most of those who support the party too.
Hard to disagree really.
Plenty of evidence has emerged that Farage was a virulent racist at school. Leopards just about never change their spots.

Just listening to @libdemdaisy.bsky.social on the news pushing hard for raising billions from a digital services tax.
Yes we could indeed do this - and then suffer increased tariffs from Donald Trump.
Therefore, like it though I do, I just can't see it working in practice.

Lots of comment on the lifting of the 2 child benefit cap.
We all benefit from fewer children living in poverty. Kids don't choose their families and they shouldn't be penalised for their parents circumstances.
We also need families to have more kids - otherwise it's more migrants down the road.

The beautiful thing about TWENTY of his classmates saying Farage was a huge racist at school, means that he'll lose any libel case he tries.
Civil cases are won on "balance of probability".
i.e. You just have to prove that it's more likely than not.
And it's already 20 to 1!

Farage is who he is, not the patriotic politician that he always pretends to be.
Maya Angelou so wisely said, "When someone shows you who they are, believe them the first time".
Britain must confront the issue of why 'ordinary' people want his divisive, hateful, racist xenophobic lies to succeed.

When I hear Farage talking about rounding up and deporting hundreds of thousands of human beings, and threatening those with leave to remain or settled status, I cannot help but think of the schoolboy sidling up to me and telling me that “Hitler was right”

Just listening to Ella Whelan tell us that the solution to our economic problems is to cut our spending on working towards net zero targets.
Our economy needs to transition away from fossil fuels and ducking the investment needed is as sure a way to failure as any.
Such illiterate nonsense !

Private Equity Curse.

£256m profit in three England regions, £45m in dividends, £33.6m paid in interest mostly to affiliates in tax havens.
Less spent on care. Yet govts handing NHS to PE.
