Farage bullied a Jewish pupil at school "Hitler was right" and he was regarded as a Nazis. There are picture(s) of him in his teens supporting the National Front and later other organisations of a similar ilk.

He has dedicated most of his life to promoting and trying to validate his own prejudices. I don't care if he might be classified as having some psychological condition. He is trying to harm other human beings because they have some different characteristics about which he has deep rooted, even pathological enmity.

And therein lies the core of the issue. It is all about him and his character and values. Nothing else matters. No consiglieri or intimate is safe from his wrath or discharge from his court if they contradict him or endanger his preeminence.

I repeat yet again here that 'there can be no act of violence without an act of detachment'.

Farage and Yaxley-Lemon (because he is yellow and bitter) are two side of the same bigoted coin. Counterfeit currency that demeans and damages the nation and the humans who inhabit it.

Don't forget in 2017 our 'average Farage next door' stated he would be picking up a rifle if Brexit didn't get delivered. Very peaceful indeed

Thank you for making me laugh out loud twice. 1. Calling Starmer racist was like paying a hitman and 2. Its not a few rotten apples, it’s the whole cider press. Great stuff.

Thanks for this post. Interesting how Reform is also resisting scrutiny of actions ( or inaction) in local authorities. Good to see challenge in Nottingham area. It is very scary to think how much power they now have in various areas

Winner of “one man and his dog whistle” for several consecutive years. The question is why so many hear and respond to that whistle and what can be done about it?😢
