Some people will say that it doesn't matter if Nigel Farage was antisemitic at school or that there's no proof of it.
To them I say, here's Farage openly pushing Great Replacement antisemitism on Fox News in 2019.

Bloomberg has audio files of Trump envoy Steve Witkoff coaching the Russians how to pitch their extreme Ukraine demands to Trump as a peace plan.

Should rule him out of holding public office ever again. This entire exercise is thoroughly compromised.

Stefan Benarroch, two years below Farage at school, has told the Guardian that Ettedgui "was such a gentle soul and Farage – Farage made his life a fucking nightmare." He has also alleged Farage would hang outside where a Jewish service was held to identify and taunt other Jewish boys.

Good point

Though this is nothing new - the BBC are simply treading a well-trodden and age-old path

In the UK Adultification is a well-established and deeply concerning phenomenon that disproportionately harms marginalised and racialised children

the bbc coining the phrase "teenage trans woman" in their coverage of the linehan case is driving me insane. it's so subtly revealing

I wrote this piece about Trudi Warner and why juries are an important part of our constitution in April last year. I think particularly worth reading today.

It looks like every Irish outlet (that I've seen so far) has just transcribed a wire services report about the Linehan trial that is *dripping* with anti trans bias, misgendering the victim, calling the teenage victim an "activist" but not Linehan, and eliding the fact that the victim was a child

It feels worth mentioning that Graham Linehan’s harassment literally continued in the courtroom, as he repeatedly misgendered Sophia, and referred to her as “Tarquin”, a fictional deadname he made up for her as part of his harassment campaign. The judge was complicit in this harassment happening.
I wonder if I spent all day, every day, for years, calling Graham Linehan - or the judge - a nonce and then, when I saw him in the street screamed it in his face and smashed his phone, would a judge find I had done no harassing?

And that's not even factoring in the age of his victim

On US TV shows and podcasts from 2009-18, Farage discussed supposed plots by bankers to create a global government, citing Goldman Sachs, the Bilderberg group and George Soros as threats to democracy. Included six guest slots with the disgraced far-right US conspiracy theorist Alex Jones.

A lot of things have happened over the last decade and one of the biggest is how many 'progressives' have revealed themselves to be perfectly fine with racism and transphobia.
All the supposedly progressive people saying 'Nigel Farage's racism doesn't matter. His fans love it'.

It matters whether the leader of the party leading all the opinion polls is an outright racist. It matters if he called black people 'wogs' and said 'gas them' to Jews. Not everything is a game

This sentence was taken out of a lecture they commissioned, reviewed through the full editorial process, and recorded four weeks ago in front of 500 people in the BBC Radio Theatre.

I was told the decision came from the highest levels within the BBC. /2

I wish I didn’t have to share this. But the BBC has decided to censor my first Reith Lecture.

They deleted the line in which I describe Donald Trump as “the most openly corrupt president in American history.” /1

Strong yes. All too often the law is used as a tool by dark money funded right wing activists to silence those who push back. We employed our defamation lawyer to try and level the playing field.

Can’t think why a trans person wouldn’t come forward to the British Transport Police and report that they’d been assaulted.

Twitter had to turn off its location feature within hours because thousands of prominent and "verified" MAGA accounts turned out to be foreign and I think it's hilarious that Elon was the one who exposed them all

The irony of these people complaining about the invented dangers of immigrants and then welcoming brain pollution from overseas hustlers.
Twitter pays people based on engagement (views, retweets, comments, etc). It appears that many MAGA accounts are based abroad and they use AI technology to generate low-effort rage bait.

My guess is that this will get worse as AI tech improves. For instance, fake videos of minorities doing crime.

Leading anti-trans writer Kathleen Stock (whom Rowling is “proud” to call her friend), now comes out with this gem on abortion. Who could have foreseen that TERFs would attack bodily autonomy? All of us did. All of us.

Transphobia rots your brain.
Kathleen Stock has written an article against "abortion permissiveness". She claims abortion requires "justification" saying the state should limit "unacceptable decision-making" by women about their own bodies.

This is who anti-trans activists proclaim as the feminist thought leaders of our time.

Trans people have exhaustively detailed the links between the anti-trans and anti-abortion movements, we warned that transphobia was a wedge issue for the religious right to roll back women's rights, only for us to be ignored, and of course UK TERFs are setting their sights on abortion.
