Have been thinking about “immigration has been tearing this country apart.” Surely I’m not the only person to think that it isn’t true, but inflamed rhetoric about immigration by politicians is what is tearing this country apart and so statements like that only makes it worse.

Some of the people in this article have shared their recollections with me before - but on condition of anonymity. Coming forward now is an act of patriotism. Farage’s claim that it never happened is the opposite.

I know this is obvious when you think about it but we don’t think about it enough: fascists have to cow & persecute decent journalists to prevent them from reporting exactly what they, the fascists, are doing. Fascist-adjacent ‘journalists’ help by insisting that we shouldn’t call fascists facsists.

The greatest threat to our democracy, freedom, and human rights is not Farage. It is the overwhelming majority of the British news media.
They promote Farage, and they protect Farage.

Sky News and the BBC repeatedly mention the "migrant crisis" in doing so they are normalising and legitimising far right talking points. There is no "migrant crisis", there is only migrant hysteria, which the British media is feeding into instead of countering.

Farage is applying for a job.
That job is Prime Minister.
The only thing on his CV is Brexit.
He campaigned for it for 27 years.
So his only real track record is making everyone poorer & damaging the NHS.
If you hire Nigel & Reform, you must want this company (UK) to fail.
