I may have found a Reform supporter on FB last night, on a post from Derbyshire Fire and Rescue asking people to stop being racist or various phonics when they make posts about diversity
I may have found a Reform supporter on FB last night,
I found a gnat in the woods the other day 😉
Did you continue the convo? You could point him this way perhaps? He'd find the thread really quite enlightening, I'm sure.
****s like that are ten a penny. String him along for a bit then block the moron.
*logs into Facebook for a look
Bah, comments not visible

I replied with "You OK hun?" and then the thread got blocked

Probably thought ‘hun’ was a reference to him being a Nazi or something… 🤷🏼♂️
TBH I was reading a fb post on the sentry gun used in aliens and blam there’s a whole load of comments on how it’s needed in Kent.
Theses people(or is it bots) seem to do nothing but think about immigration 247 and insert it into every possible post.

It saves them having to confront the real reasons why their lives haven't panned out the way they would have liked. Assuming they're not just bots, obvs.
If she really cares about abuse of woman maybe get involved and support victims of female abuse
She's set up a charity that does exactly that - the Volant Charitable Trust, in 2000. It's estimated she's donated over $200 million to charitable causes.

A LOT of people these days get ALL of their 'news/information' from social media and the algorithms feed them a constant stream of things they will/should find engaging in order to keep them online. Immigration will literally be the only topic being presented to large numbers of people so it's hardly surprising that it's all some people talk about and blame for all the problems in the world
Andrea Jenkins had a press conference this morning with the intention of broadening the Reform vote, as all their voters are male (and white and of a certain age).
She did this by describing herself and similar types as ‘Farages Fillies’
🤢 🤮

Farages **** Buddies?
According to Newsthump, Farage has been sharing a pic of newly arrived illegals which a search has shown was taken in the Aegean back in 2015.
A serving MP really can't be allowed to keep getting away with this shit
I was talking about that post last night - to be able to share false things without recourse or rebuke now he's an 'actual MP' seems somewhat short sighted.
Done in summer recess too so far from Parliament. Wonder if anyone has reported it to the police?

There needs to be a 3 strikes and you’re out rule for politicians sharing falsehoods online, they have massive influence so they shouldn’t get away with it
Wow, Nigel Farage really is serious about becoming UK Prime Minister, he is now performing huge Starmer-style U-turns !
And lest we forget Sir Keir Starmer's handbrake-turn on the House of Lords
Did anyone hear Nige's speech on the echoey aircraft hangar on the radio evening news earlier? Without the visuals, the sound quality and content really reminded me of Hitler addressing a crowd on the Zeppelin fields.

I heard it, it’s been the most talked about news item today, utterly ****ing sick of hearing his voice so can we please move forward to placing him in a bunker with a Luger and letting him blow his ****ing brains out
Every bloody word of this. But Starmer hasn't got the balls and Morgan "Don't upset the Gammons" McSweeney won't let him...
https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2025/aug/27/nigel-farage-keir-starmer-brexit-truth
Is Farage proposing a new elected upper house? Or just replacing it with NOTHING, as part of his plans to remove all checks on executive power if he manages to take control of the country?
Morgan "Don't upset the Gammons" McSweeney won't let him...
I am more inclined to think that McSweeney is very much ideologically aligned with the nationalists and racists rather than not wanting to upset them.
I also wonder if there is ever an investigation into the political financing of this period in our history, where that would lead.

”Cough” political shenanigans “Cough”
Farage: 'Drill, baby, drill!'
Reform led council: 'Er, ackshully...'

Farage has had to row back on his pledge for mass deportations and leaving the ECHR - Looks like because he was told that this would breach the good friday agreement and the scotland act ( dunno about wales) as the ECHR is enshrined in both Scots and NI law. the only way to change it for Scotland would be to abolish the scottish parliament
Probably doesn't matter - people will have heard it and believed it and not listened to any of his nonsense afterwards. They will only be the people who are already Reform voters though I guess.
It’d blow up the trading relationship with the EU too, though god knows he’s done enough damage on that front already.
Any independent analysis of the nonsense he spouted the other day has concluded that all of it is laughably unachievable.
Farage knows this full well, but he’s working on the basis that there are enough unquestioning morons who’ll ignore the experts (we’ve had enough of those, after all) and vote his way.
Hey, it worked for him in 2016
Yeah, have already seen post on FB from people that lean his way demanding that the UK closes its borders. Not sure how they plan to do this or what it will acheive.
Can we please ask how any faragists we encounter plan to protect their pensions once he is in.
Explain how truss ****ed it up and he will be worse.
What would happen to reform if the fag stained, man frog keeled over? Would they lose their popularity straight away or would someone else be able to fill the void? He does seem to be uniquely gifted with "the common touch", something that can't be said for Tice et al.

I expect someone eg Johnson, would be dusted off to replace him.
Ultimately the "common touch" seems heavily dependent on journalists playing along with it eg how his "speaks it as he sees it" is badly undermined by how he simply refuses to answer any question he doesnt fancy and instead of chasing him on it the journalists nod along.
Living in a country with PR I love this rose-tinted view that it would solve Everything. At a very minimum it means getting rid of a constituent MP - and like FPTP or not, having a "local" MP is definitely a strong point about UK politics. Without it you have some kind of party list: vote for Labour, and you'll get the MPs Labour decides are good for you. With no personal accountability.
Not nessacarily - the scottish system you still have constituency MSPs and a few regional list MSPs. It works well. Its not fully proportional but its close and it has a high threshold but its the best system I know of.
Finally Reform have identified a candidate for a mayoral election that is pretty well guaranteed to not post something horrific in future and bring the party into disrepute

Fingers crossed regarding the ECHR - it was bad enough when they cheered us leaving the EU - to do the same with our actual rights is fascism of the highest order.

A solicitor is probably unwrapping a manuscript with a note on it "only publish posthumously as its too controversial".

As the tories found out when they suggested it and as per my post above. Its possible for England but for NI, Scotland and I assume Wales it much more complex. Basically for NI its in the agreements ( Belfast agreement?) similarly for Scotland and I assume Wales its in the legislation setting up the parliament. for Scotland unless holyrood agrees the only way to disapply the ECHR would be to totally close down holyrood. The Scotland act can only be altered with the approval of both parliaments. I cannot see Holyrood ever agreeing this. Westminster does have to power to end the Holyrood parliament but I suspect that would lead to more than a little trouble 🙂
As the JRM thread is now closed cos he's dead irrelevant - not sure if this belongs here or somewhere else.
But it's good to see the career oppurtunities afforded to ex MPs

There's a gag going round social media - If you could have dinner with anyone dead or alive, who would it be?
Nigel Farage. Dead.
That JRM bollocks is beyond belief. Parody, satire, etc. are truly dead, buried, and decomposed.
Somebody was on 5live this morning talking about how the Government wanted to use his hotel to house asylum seekers, or illegal immigrants in his words. Didn't take him long to talk about my mate Nigel and become a mouthpiece for Reform. Do the BBC not do any research before they get people on? Turns out he is John Mappin, Q Anon type, Turning Point UK funder and Trump supporter.

My wife booked us into his hotel - I think he talking shite to be honest.
The hotel is wild - the wait staff (all female, wearing 1950s esque maid outfits) conspiracy theory booklets in each room talking about lizards & stealing children's blood. And... the art.
A chap called Ted Stourton who paints the shitest paintings I have ever seen that are on sale for ridiculous sums of money & are not in keeping with the olde worlde feel of the hotel at all.
Just look at him, the sniveling little toady. Stood there sucking up to a wannabe dictator while, without a hint of irony, talking utter nonsense about Britain becoming an authoritarian state.
It absolutely baffles to me why anyone gives this self-serving shyster the time of day.
As usual it looks like photo ops in the US takes priority over the day job of apparently being an MP

100%
Every now than something will pop up in facebook feed. Someone will point out that what he has said is unworkable, or just plain stupid and you then see a barrage of comments along the lines of "our next PM!!!!!! suk it up snowflakes" and then a load of flags. There are people out there totally into it and him.

It does say a lot he spent the summer doing all his press conferences to gain attention but then as soon as parliament opened he sodded off.
I dont think the hearing went quite how he wanted it to as the democrats didnt hold back. It would be nice if our journalists took some notes since it gives a far clearer view of someone who really isnt open and honest when put under a minor bit of pressure but just blusters in a slightly different way from the normal politician deflection.
Apparently we are becoming North Korea so I assume he will be staying in exile in the USA. I mean if I believed that and knew that the leader knew about me I would be in exile since I have an aversion to being tortured to death.
I feel he may regret the "Britain has become North Korea" statement, after all we all know what happens to politicians who stand out/mess up in North Korea, they get invited out the back of the building and .........BANG
