I'm not entirely sure that evidence of historic racism is going to put off the people who support Farage for his current racism, if we are looking at how this affects his polling.

I mean how much “bad luck” must you have to find your MEP aides shovelling russian propaganda into other MEP’s pigeon holes? To find your fellow MEP and colleague has taken bribes to say much the same thing as you have been saying for years in support of Russia

I wonder what HMRC has to say about those gains?

Extraordinary bad luck the way Farage always seems to attract wrong ‘uns yet he never seems to know the bad stuff that they are up to.

Please don't lose focus of what's on the ground: russia's targeted attacks continue to plunge Ukrainians into severe power outages, aiming to freeze us this winter. Here's what I experience today.

The Int'l Criminal Court called russian attacks on Ukraine's energy grid a crime against humanity.

On why Farage doesn’t apologise for his schoolboy racism:
“if he apologised, he would be turning to his own support base and saying, ‘You’re all guilty too.’ ”
Exactly.
He is racist. So are his voters. He can’t be pissing them off by saying sorry.

Sangita Myska said the position of people of colour in public life in Britain was “becoming harder by the day”, in part due to an “unbelievably toxic environment in which anything goes” normalised during the #Brexit campaign in 2016.

This is the case for a majority of people in New Zealand due to the response in 2020 and 2021 which could explain why our excess mortality continue to be lower than other countries. Lockdown gets proven to be the right decision (at the time).

I've been saying this for a year now: the Democrats have missed a gigantic political opportunity--and, at this point, have failed in an ethical obligation--to create a shadow-government health department that dispenses medically accurate information, guidance, and advice.

Monday's meeting of Starmer, Macron and Merz could turn out to be even more important because of the US national security strategy. They need to decide whether to say in public what they are thinking in private: that the threat is no longer just Putin, it's also Trump

It's also: you don't know who is going to become what. A society more confident in itself would believe a little bit more in its ability to make anyone thrive and give back.
My dad abhors any negative comments about immigrants. Asked him recently why he’s so strong on it: ‘Because we’re always happy to take the rich and clever ones. Which means it’s not about disliking immigrants. It’s about disliking the poor and vulnerable. And that’s a bad human instinct.’
This is so disgusting.

Labour are committed to getting some money back. But I want to see measures put in place to stop corruption in our future Governments. Tax Payers should be protected from incompetence and wilful theft from people in power.

What this shows is how obviously weak their arguments are once they are confronted with any question. Doesn’t even need to be a well developed counterargument, just „but what exactly do you mean by that?“ or „what does that entail?“ This stuff can only survive in its own bubble.
