Farage is a lazy, lowlife grifter. He exists to spread his hate. He is an absolute disgrace.

Reform politicians double down on their racism because they’re proudly racist.
Farage won’t apologise for his or his party’s racism because he needs his racist voters on side.
Reform is racist. Farage is racist.
Don’t call for apologies. Call them what they are.

Farage always complains he is silenced in Parliament but yesterday he was given the opportunity to speak as he requested and he couldn’t be bothered to turn up. What an utter hypocrite.

Finally, Labour is finding its nerve and getting Britain’s bad Brexit deal undone | Polly Toynbee
Rejoining Erasmus should just be a first step – as the economic evidence piles up, the need for closer ties with Europe could not be clearer, says Guardian columnist Polly Toynbee

Reform tried to dismiss questions on Farage’s racism, saying they should be asked about the ‘substance’ of their policies instead.
Unsurprisingly, their policies are shit too.

It’s exactly this kind of dismal, prejudiced bollox from the Daily Mail that’s got us into the ruinous Brexit mess we’re in. What a moronic response to us rejoining Erasmus and all the benefits that brings. If they’re really worried about cost, they should push to cancel Brexit altogether.

So, Trump sues the BBC for $5Bn and puts the technology deal with the UK on hold until the US gets more concessions.
Anyone still deluding themselves about that “special relationship”? No. Just the tedious parade of simpering MAGA dickheads - led, of course, by the traitorous Farage.
