You're on a righteous mission with Farridge, Bear, and I am fucking here for it!
We've seen an attempt at Trumpism here before. Boris Johnson did a cuddlier, more smiley version of it and it went down like a cup of cold sick. I think (hope), that Reform's nastier version will end similarly. Especially as he keeps taking in more and more of Johnson's wingnut cheerleaders. Turquoise Tories (love it, by the way) is spot on, and any party comms officer with half a brain at Labour, Lib Dems and the Greens should be shouting that from the fucking rooftops.
Whilst watching the faux outrage of Duck Defender Jenkyns , I was reminded how much I miss Thangham Debbonaire in the HoC . Great sense , great conviction & a sense of humour . We are worse off without her .
She had no problem in displaying her utter contempt for Mad Andrea & her hysteria .
Excellent work 👏Let's hope Deform keeps tripping over its own shoelaces to the extent that the MSM finally wakes up to the fact that it's a clown show that shouldn't be given the oxygen of publicity.
Farage and co really are just a cheap, slightly Anglified version of Trump's MAGA. Anything Trumps lot do, Farage and co will come up with a cheap copy of. Just as mad, unfounded and potentially destructive. Just as corrupt. And they are appealing to just the same kind of prejudices.
All credit to Ed Davey for taking Farage and Reform on. But we still need a positive vision for the country and plans to deliver it to get people back onside.
One of the problems with Farage is that he is a good orator, albeit not an entirely truthful one. He is playing on people fears, small boats less than 0.1% of the country, are destroying the UK. Ethnic minorities are all criminals and deserve not to have settled status.Covid jabs cause cancer.
We really need Labour and other political parties to step up and call out this complete rubbish. We do have a problem with mainstream media, but the complete hogwash spewed out on social media platforms such as YouTube and X is far more of a problem.
Thank you Bear for speaking sense. Next can we have a small expose on Advance UK,Ben Habib, Tommy Robinson and the other racist idiots they are drawing in?
Excellent! They are awful, just hideously awful. Mad as a box of frogs the lot of them! It’s actually very comforting watching them making absolute fools of themselves with the paracetamol, swans, carp nonsense. As you say Bear, the British public are not daft, the majority of us anyway. Hopefully the minority will start to see them for what they really are.
A Spanish girl I work with lives with a British man, he was all for Reform until their latest immigrant announcement. The penny finally dropped with him, hopefully it drops for many more.
Blimey, if this is what you churn out while half-asleep on a bus that smells like radiator fluid, I’d be terrified to see the damage you’d do after a lie-in and a decent coffee. Great piece, sharp, funny, and somehow even better with the rogue commas. Thanks for keeping us sane through the madness.
If I encounter the swan eating thing on the doorstep next week, and I bet I will, I’ll just laugh in their faces. They deserve no more. They wouldn’t vote for me anyway.
I thought the only ones allowed to eat swans were the British royalty. It is presumably a delicacy for them but considered utterly disgraceful if eaten by non royalty, especially if they are migrants. ???
That deranged orange-utang frequently says "They say" or "They tell me"
The "They" is never defined, but the fear is sown., the kernel of doubt implanted.
It's what we're seeing here, just with slightly more words and the merest hint of "evidence".
So, Mr. Bear, and all of us, your sleuth of 'cubs', we must continue to shine a very bright light on the absurdity of it all. We have to continue in our efforts to educate the "ovis aries" flock who are persuaded by a catchy soundbite.
Nutty Nige is just completely off his trolley, I'm wondering if taco put something in his drink at one of their many meetings.
What else can you say about a person who shoots and hunts wildlife for fun, but even if there was the smallest iota of truth (which I know there isn't) in swans being eaten, it would be because someone was starving!
Dear Bear, as one of those pesky foreigners who has lived in the UK for 50 yrs, married a British man & is on ILR, I agree heartily with all you said. In my case, I came to the UK for what was meant to be 8 months & met a young man, which changed the course of my life. I did not originally intend to settle in the UK & there are many EU citizens in the same situation as me. So, thank you for speaking up for all of us. When I did my nurse training, I came across an English girl who was finishing her nursing course in the UK, but she had met a young French man & was planning to move to France & marry him, which she did. Does the Reform party realize that chucking out most of us ILR foreigners will very likely lead to a reciprocal response from other EU countries who will force very pissed off British people to return to the UK? They will be extremely unlikely to vote for Reform!!!

When I comment, I do try / prefer to
a) put a thought through view and
b) aim for a “Change” related aspect (if that’s sensible/possible) (as Change is what I write about).
But today my comment is simply “they are all “**ckwits”.
(I think that’s well thought through 😂)

Reform are the political equivalent of that moron in your class at school who copied his homework off the most stupid kid in your year.
They’re a bunch of dimwitted poshos spreading US nonsense from the Orange Oaf like manure.

Yes, good for Ed., and Starmer needs to start doing it too.
Farage will keep doing it because that is where his money is coming from. He has to keep echoing what MAGA say

I sincerely hope that Deform UK goes down with all hands, when the good ship Trump finally hits the rocks.

It's all so "Trumplethinskinesq".

I recently saved a frog from the mouth of a cat and can assure anyone in doubt that that frog had more sense than any member of reform ever exhibited.
It certainly does!
