Hopefully it’s the start of a strategy to further soften up the public for a future policy to more closely align (if not to join this parliament) with the SM/CU. The more the govt pushes this Farrage narrative the more that traitor has to defend himself and his actions.

Their raison d’etre needs to be removed. Safe routes established and an orderly immigration framework put in place. Hopefully then a rejection of racist ideology at the ballot box in 2029. Time, at least is on the govts side.

Don’t know which is worse. Being a racist or leaning into racism to further your own ends politically.

I wonder if there’s any evidence, anecdotal or factual, as to whether polls influence people’s voting intentions? I mean do parties who consistently lead in polls become a self-fulfilling prophecy and win a GE? 🤔
Sadly msm appear more cut-and-paste these days rather than investigative.

It’s all about a “marquee” announcement with him and how great he is (to himself). I’m a bit more sceptical that all this might turn to dust before the weekend’s out and he’ll need someone to blame. For all the many reasons I loathe him, giving distressed people hope just for his appearance sake.. 🤬

The Tories have ruined this country once this century (twice if you count the austerity years) so they never deserve to have a third shot.. ever! 😠

Worry is that this yawning void in British politics between the Tory party & Reform and the centre isn’t being filled with anything other than far right extremism. It’s like a creeping cancer and unless someone fills that void with normal centre right politics I fear our democracy is doomed.

From the swivel-eyed loons of the Tory party of the 90s right back to.. the swivel-eyed loons of today’s Tories. Obsessed by Europe, Cameron bowed to their pressure of a referendum in order to protect Tory seats from UKIP. And so this is what they’ve gestated and given birth to. Reform 😤

Don’t waste your time and energy, some people are beyond reason.

Jeff Scroggie @jeffscroggie.bsky.social · 6d

You’d think so wouldn’t you? And any sane Tory would think so. But they’re not sane and they don’t realise the further like reform they try to be, the more likely they’ll bring about their own extinction.

And most of the big cities in England voted to remain including the UK capital. Anyway all thanks to David Cameron and the Conservatives who put us in this mess and, apparently Kemi’s the one who’s going to get us out of it. Don’t fckin make me laugh! 😠

And do bears sh*t in the woods?
And some people accuse him of being a traitor to his country. I don’t know how many people feel he’s a traitor, all I know is some people feel he’s a traitor.
On an unrelated note do any of Farage’s friends take money from Russia?

I’d like to be hearing more practical measures about the government’s work with our European counterparts in “smashing the gangs”. They promised to do this but it’s largely gone silent on that score.

I guess she’ll say anything and take any position just to remain relevant. I’m sure that she’ll be defenestrated by next summer after the Tories get mullered in the locals in May. And then they’ll get Jenrick..dear me 🙂‍↔️

Maybe at last something’s building here (hope springs eternal!) with both Labour and LibDems in all out attack on Fagash and Reform 🤞Laying the blame for Brexit and its consequences on immigration issue directly at his door is the way forward now. And lob in the Russian connection too. Good start!

Fagash is just a disrupter, being on the sidelines (although a front and centre media darling of course) is all he wants and all that he’s capable of. And seems like he has a thin a skin as his hero Trump. Keep on him, he’ll crack!

And also Fagash’s links to Aaron Banks and his links.. careful what I type here but you get my drift? It’s not right that the voting public know exactly where the money’s coming from.
