Off Topic The Politics Thread

free internet woohoo

 

Farage and Reform receive yet another apology from the BBC today for its lack of impartiality. Farage was quoting Poland PM Donald Tusk on immigration who said recently:

“These are not refugees, there are less and less migrants. In eighty cases out of a hundred, we are dealing with organized groups of very aggressive young men between the ages of 18 and 30.”

By quoting Tusk, Farage was accused by a BAME BBC presenter of using "his customary inflammatory language." Hence BBC grovelling.

 

Farage, the seven-times election failure who was given a Question Time season ticket by the biased BBC.

Farage, the man whose racist and inflammatory Brexit propaganda was instrumental in persuading the British public to inflict economic sanctions on itself.

Farage, the man who thinks that freeing himself up for some kind of bootlicking job with the neo-fascist Republican candidate in the US is more important than standing once more for election in this country.

**** Farage.

 

No further action to be taken by Greater Manchester Police over the Angela Rayner allegations made by the Tories.

Surprise, surprise.

 

You'll give yourself a hernia. Farage is the most influential politician in the modern era.

 

Enoch Powell was influential, but he was still a racist rabble-rouser. Farage was undoubtedly influential in the Brexit vote because he appealed to the racists. Yet he can't quite get anyone to elect him to parliament. Funny, that.

 

Enoch Powell gave a warning that no one wanted to hear, so his influence was minimal. On this occasion, Farage was only quoting Tusk. Why don't you have a pop at him? Is it because he was a cheerleader for the EU during Brexit? He's changing his spots now...

 

You’re very hatey for an octogenarian

 

Dianne Abbott handed back the Labour whip. Tories will be hoping we hear lots from her before July 4

 

Says the man who’s Twitter algorithm throws up such charmers as the white supremacist President Elect Jay @ourcountrysgone

You’ve gone full Goldhawk.

 

I don’t even know what you just said.

 

Have a look at the profile of the bloke whose tweet you shared with us.

 

I can’t say I’m a massive fan of jihadis or socialism either.

 

Good, the algorithm works to reinforce your worldview. Elon will be delighted.

Angela Rayner’s neighbours of both her houses are outraged by police decision. I wonder whether such police reports are available for Freedom of Information requests

 

Shows he believes in something instead of sitting on the fence and refusing to vote

 

Sunak’s decision to remove Micky Mouse degrees from government loan scheme in order to fund apprenticeships is welcome, but why didn’t the Tories do this before?

 

At a guess I’d say it’s because they haven’t given a **** about anything but themselves for 14 years and will just pump out any old headline now that might salvage a few votes in full knowledge they won’t be the ones doing this or not doing this anyway.

 

Yes, there's some truth in that
