Farage says leaving the ECHR is the “unfinished business" of Brexit and that the UK is "not sovereign” while we are in it.

But Farage lies. And Brexit is a shitshow. So, “finishing” it should fill us all with dread.

Sovereignty without rights is dictatorship.

Incredibly, people still take this bloke seriously when he tells them he'll be terraforming Mars by easter. He's an inveterate liar, a child.

Farage is winning because politics has been reduced to clickbait.

It’s a shallow spectacle that favours clowns and con-artists.

As @jemmaforte.bsky.social says here - politics has been “repackaged into junk food.”

But there are ways for the left to fight back 👇🏻

Andrew Tate has been charged with rape, human trafficking, controlling prostitution and actual bodily harm. Nigel Farage described him as "an important voice for young men". That tells you all you need to know about Farage's moral compass.

Nigel Farage says this summer’s Raise the Colours movement was led by ‘ordinary people’ expressing their patriotism. Our reporters in five cities had a look and that’s not what we found.

Not once have I heard them back measures to protect women’s safety

In fact, they voted against them...
