Desperately sad that the media won't highlight the shite Farage has put out, focus on that sickening smirk or point out - again - the consequences of his words
is there any point? The media that supports him won’t and his acolytes are daft enough to believe that any difficult questioning by the rest of the media is lefty woke whiners who are deliberately trying to make him look bad by lying

Which, tbf, he’s managing to do just fine on his own; however, having a bunch of idiotic, corrupt cronies making a total mess of things isn’t hurting either.
Amazing how fastidious Farage is in some aspects isn't it?

Amazing good fastidious Farage is in some aspects isn't it?
To be fair he is always careful choosing his words whilst sipping a nice red wine so when he utters them with a pint in his hand there is enough deniability available. So I am sure it is upsetting to him when someone doesnt follow his script exactly.
It will help his victimhood complex as well despite how heavily he is catered to. Best not mention that five million or how the investigation into his phone hacking is going.
(Just corrected my predictive error.)
Agree with all of above diss.
Lovely little polite chat with voters in Makerfield on Radio4 right now… one of those looking to vote Reform described the current PM as a traitor to his race. Just mainstream chat now…
…Farage has been working to create a BNP with plausible deniability for decades now, with multiple party names, and while “not a politician” when he was sorting out his income… he’s doing a great job… and could well have the chance to take us somewhere very dark with the support he’s built up.
One of his and Tommy’s heroes charged in Southampton and pleading guilty - ashamed apparently, but has 25 convictions for 55 offences so likely a slow learner.
This is grim, and is going to feed some votes into Restore/Reform. And possibly some severe social disturbance/rioting in the area.
*Before opening the link, the main image is maybe something you don't want to see even though it's too blurry to really make anything out. You might also find uncensored stuff being shared on social media.
The BBC describes it as a knife attack, the Belfast Telegraph as an attempted beheading by a Sudanese (some report Somalian) man.

Incidents like this happen constantly, it’s all part of the cultural enrichment.
love that our resident racist's user name is based on an aboriginal word

Constantly? Knife crime in NI has been falling for years now. It's a safe place. Feel free to visit. Plenty there to enrich you culturally, especially in Belfast.

Straight in, well done. Slow claps....

How about this?

I was there last week. I went to the Titanic museum to wait for my flight.
I should ask for a refund coz the Titanic wasn't there! Madness!
The NI politicians have been quick to try and get ahead of Farage on this.
Not seen anything from Farage about the Manchester school stabbings. Maybe it's not about protecting our kids after all.
Put a hundred people in a room and at a rough guess 98 of them would be enraged about an illegal immigrant trying to cut an innocent person's head off, the other two would be angry about something Nigel Farage had done.
That's the real world. I think most of you lot live in some parallel universe because I don't come across many of you in real life, ever. And I meet a lot of people
It is possible to be outraged about an immigrant trying to cut someone's head off and also outraged by someone using the incident to stir up trouble targeted at whole sections of our society that are equally outraged. They aren't mutually exclusive.
Farage is deliberately stirring up racism. The result is racist attacks on innocent folk as in the peice I posted above.

But no one is ever outraged by it on here. Every atrocity that happens either isn't even mentioned, or if it is, it's used as a tool to moan about 'the far right'
Well Artist, I think you mix with a different group of people to me. Most of the people that I know recognise that an attack like that is horrific but also recognise that Farage, Lowe and our local Tommy Ten names wannabee James Holmes, do not care about the people involved in all this. All they care about is sewing hate and division to help their grifting mates that plan on making money from the misery of others.
Most of my acquaintances recognise that the colour and ethnicity of a perpetrator mostly doesn’t have any bearing on their crime, as the perceived ethnicity of an emergency worker doesn’t have any bearing on their efficiency!
I am. It's dreadful. But burning down a random Middle Eastern supermarket in retaliation is not the answer.
That's not 'moaning about the far right' in my book.

No, it's not the answer and is (almost) as abhorrent.
The fact still remains that more of you on here seem more bothered about point scoring and back slapping about Farage than what actually happened.
If that's not the case then I'll stand corrected, but that's how you seem to come across
immigrants commit less crimes than indigenous.
Give it a rest Jeremy. The amount of violent crime committed by people that shouldn't even be allowed to be here is rising daily. Don't try and mask over that with white people are bad too
Was chatting to a neighbour today about the stabbing and then she mentioned the sikh guy that was convicted recently for murder.
Her: "I don't think it's right that Muslims should be allowed to carry knives."
Me: *Inward sigh...*
Her 'news' comes from FB predominantly. Shocker.
are you as outraged over these violent attacks?

etc etc etc
there are far more violent attacks by racists on immigrants
.The fact still remains that more of you on here seem more bothered about point scoring and back slapping about Farage than what actually happened
Yes it's bizarre that in a thread about farage people discus their thoughts on farage in relation to current events. If you want to discuss a horrific crime without the intrusion of politics maybe start a thread on it rather than blathering faux indignation here. I don't really feel the need to comment, grieve or vent on every vile and horrific crime I read about but ymmv

that is just racist twaddle. You do not even seem to realise how you are being manipulated by Farage and his cohorts of racist agitators.
"shouldn't be here"
" rising daily"
both just nonsense unless you actually have some evidence to support them
btw I don't believe you are racist inherently but you have been manipulated jnto believing a false narrative
The amount of violent crime committed by people that shouldn't even be allowed to be here is rising daily.
Is it?
Or are you adding up 2+2 to make a million?
Farage’s work over the last 10 years has really paid off. There was a time when he was laughed at for pointing at empty beaches in Kent, but he’s changed the narrative sure. It is a narrative though, not facts. But it is a very popular narrative (your 98% may be inflated, but I’ll give you that A LOT of people agree with his calls for rage and hate rather than call out his opportunism when it comes to his responses to horrific crimes where the perpetrator is non-white and/or born abroad).

this makes me wonder where you get your news from?
it seems to have you living in fear of something that isnt true
violent crime has decreased over the last few years
this is why the likes of farage, gbnews, robinson and now Lowe amplified by Musk whipping up fear and hatred is so dangerous
That's the real world. I think most of you lot live in some parallel universe because I don't come across many of you in real life, ever. And I meet a lot of people
Thank **** for that 😉 , probably just as well as I'd pollute your brain with my lefty sensibilities and nature…..or just give you a hug and tell you that everything is ok
violent crime has decreased over the last few years
Not to play down knife crime, but it's crazy to think just how prevalent it was in Glasgow in the late 90s to mid 00s.
Just as well there wasn't riots every time someone got stabbed back then. You'd be rioting at least three times a day.
I am. It's dreadful. But burning down a random Middle Eastern supermarket in retaliation is not the answer.
No, it's not the answer and is (almost) as abhorrent.

I can see how it comes across that way.
Maybe its becayse if a perpetrator is black and male, Farage et al kick off and give us something to have a go at. I'm still awaiting his outrage at the Manchester school stabbings yesterday, or the white guy who used a sword to kill a black kid a couple of months ago.
But no one is ever outraged by it on here.
I am not outraged by any murder, it is pretty much a fact of life that people kill other people. Not great and doesn't exactly make me happy but I am not outraged at it as I guess I have come to terms with it.
However, there are literally hundreds of murders every year in the UK by all sorts of people, why are you outraged by this (attempted) one in particular?
Nigel wasn’t that bothered he went to Grangemouth yesterday to get a photo opportunity rather than rushing to Belfast!
ironically despite making vague claims that he would save Grangemouth - he actually cost them productivity as some sicophant decided that he was basically royalty and disrupted a bunch of people doing their jobs for the morning so he could wander around in his overalls getting pictures taken. Presumably nobody took him to show him the ageing plant that management have not invested in for years or discussed the other underlying issues whilst he was seemingly implying that under a Reform government he would prop up failing businesses when the billionaire owners got more interested in sports business than long term investments in energy and chemicals!
immigrants commit less crimes than indigenous.
This sort of broad brush rhetoric is just as reducto absurdum as the competing claim that immigrant crime is increasing daily.
The stats the govt do publish show that 'foreign nationals*' commit crime at about the same rate as indigenous folks once you adjust for demographics. It's a fact that asylum-seekers commit more crime, but that's largely because many are young men and poor with poor mental health, and they are statistically more likely to commit crime anyway as they are the same indicators for all crime committed by young men, and once you correct for demographics, it evens out - there's a report by the Migration Observatory about this that's very interesting if you're bothered about it, but it points out that high quality figures about who commits crime are hard to come by reliably.
The govt does not record immigration status in crime stats, as such there's no way (outside of very very granular studies** that shouldn't be extrapolated to a national level about 'overall' crime) that you claim either way that immigrants are either less or more likely to commit crime, or indeed do commit more or less crime
Overall crime is reducing year on year - but again the way they are reported is influential in this, and it was revealed a few years back that GMP were recording violent crime incorrectly, so there's a spike as that's been corrected, but also violent sexual crime is on the rise, and that most likely to be commited by white men - again no stats are recorded about the immigration status of these criminals
*that's everyone not born in the UK
** There's a very widely shared study that shows that Afghan nationals commit crime at a higher rate than British nationals, BUT the study doesn't account for demographics and was published after an increase overall in immigration of large numbers of Afghan nationals
Horrific crime surge in Belfast last night. People burnt out of their homes. No idea how many of the perpetrators were immigrants to the UK. I’ll guess at very few.
The fact still remains that more of you on here seem more bothered about point scoring and back slapping about Farage than what actually happened.
Farage causes immeasurably more damage to the social fabric, peace and safety of this land than any random asylum seeker with a mental health problem and a kitchen knife. It's a crying shame that people like this perpetrator don't direct their violent urges towards the likes of Farage, Lowe and Yaxley-Lennon. That plane crash has a lot to answer for.
No, it's not the answer and is (almost) as abhorrent.
Oh piss off. We all know you're secretly quite excited about it despite your protestations. The irony is that if the immigrant community returned the violence and hatred they experience and directed it at tinpot little racists like yourself you'd be pissing your pants. If you're so determined on fighting this so called culture war maybe get out in the real world and do it instead of doing it on here where no one is interested?
No idea how many of the perpetrators were immigrants to the UK. I’ll guess at very few.
But they're all immigrants to Ireland though 😉
i meet a lot of people and far more are concerned about Farage and his racist shite and almost no one who moans about immigration.

Okay but I think you must operate in a bubble because there is rising anti-immigration sentiment in Scotland, same as in the rest of the country.

Yup, I suspect many are the usual trouble makers from England popping over there to cause trouble.

I would be surprised. Its not like NI is short on headbangers who like an occasional riot.
True.
Not short of their own rage baiting MPs either.

No doubt, and I'd happily place a bet that states the majority of them voted for Brexit and are loyalist supporters.
Brexit lifted the stone that they previously hid under and they now have tribal leaders to rally around, it's like a social club for them.....a flat roofed social club 😉
(oh no........he said Brexit......will you just get over it....we've left....stop talking about it.......it was the will of the people...etc....etc...)
