I’m not exaggerating when I say, this is exactly how my grandfather sounded three months before we had to put him in a nursing home

Britain lost the ability to treat its sewage the moment we left the EU and it became profitable to dump it (no fines). Fines were approximately £100-200m while we were in the EU. They would be £5bn a year now, they only make £3bn profit.

I don't even think he knows what he said.
If your Grandpa started talking like this,... wouldn't you at least take away the car keys until you could get it checked out?

Replying to @Eyeswideopen69
Farage would like this erased from history. Incitement? x.com/i/status/1819473846845…

Nigel Farage promised us violent disorder this weekend. And he delivered.

What an absolute weasel. Police dealing with a horrific murder and he thinks their prime role should be to make sure coked up fascists get the facts to prevent them from rioting. 1. Police have to be very careful about what they say. 2. Complicated by age of offender. 3. He knew exactly what he was doing but it has gone a bit too far so he is going into his nice Nigel reasonable on the radio mode. We talk about @Nigel_Farage “I don’t know … I’m only asking questions” shtick on @RestIsPolitics tomorrow.
🚨 NEW: Nigel Farage says he was misled by Andrew Tate and 'other folk with big followings' into incorrectly suggesting that the man charged with the Southport killings 'was known to security services'

The mask drops and he admits he'd support riots against immigrants... And some in the Tory Party want him as their Leader.
Nigel Farage, "We have to address issues like uncontrolled mass immigration, division of our communities" Tom Swarbrick, "I don't know what any of that has got to do with Southport" NF, "I'm looking for a long term solution" TS, "I don't know what any of that has got to do with Southport" NF, "Don't you?" TS, "No" NF, "You know what?" TS, "The man charged was born in Cardiff" NF, "Do you know what, you want to get out more" TS, "Thank you" NF, "You want to get out more" TS, "The man charged was born in Cardiff" NF, "Why didn't they tell people that? Maybe the riots would not have been that bad" TS, "You jumped to conclusions" NF, "They did not tell people" TS, "You came to conclusions based on looking at Andrew Tate's twitter feed of what happened" NF, "They did not tell people before those riots sparked, who he was and where they came from. If they had done that this would have been far less serious" TS, "You could have said in those circumstances: we dont know yet who this person is so lets not jump to conclusions, let's wait and see and condemn how awful the attack was" NF, "Or I could have said tell us the truth and maybe this will calm down, which is what I did"

This is extraordinary. According to Farage “The far right are a reaction to fear, to discomfort, to unease…”. Farage has gone full far-right apologist. Like his justification of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, his mask has slipped & the public are starting to see who he is.

Donald Trump says that Melania struggles to talk about the assassination attempt against him: “She can’t really even talk about it, which is okay, because that means she likes me, or she loves me…that’s nice”

This is what we mean when we say Trump is going to take away our freedom.
Holy shit! Trump just laid out his plans to be a dictator. Where the hell is the media?? “You have to get out and vote. You won’t have to do it anymore. Four years, it will be fixed, it will be fine…In four years, you won’t have to vote again.”

It is extraordinary that the USA gets treated to a dismantling of the Tory party orders of magnitude better than the tame efforts anyone dares attempt here. (And no, it's not the swearing that makes the difference - it's the accuracy of the attacks.)
