In 2022, Donald Trump sued me and others associated with the Clinton campaign for RICO. We did not cave. We fought. First, we won in a Florida trial court. Today, we won in the 11th Circuit.

If multiple people can remember someone being horribly racist, even by the appalling low bar of the racist 1970s, that is entirely noteworthy.
As an adult Farage fanboyed Enoch Powell - the most infamous racist of the 1960s - and long cited him as his political hero.
And that's noteworthy too.

I endured an English public school. But that’s not the only reason I’m unsurprised about the Farage allegations |
Let’s put aside the schooldays accusations and look, instead, at the Reform leader’s path since then. I think a pretty clear picture of the man emerges, says author and podcaster Musa Okwonga

One of the most nauseating parts of right-wing discourse over the past few years has been their insistence that lockdowns a scam.
The Covid inquiry says that 23k people died because we locked down one week too late. God knows how many more would’ve died if the herd immunity crowd had got their way

Why does X routinely defend the racist abuse that it has a legal duty to remove?
A binary choice: must we tolerate the use of "paki" as a racist slur in the Britain of 2025 - or will government act to Make Twitter Lawful Again?

The last sentence is an interesting moment in the English language. Of course it's true that these articles hinder the removal of asylum seekers, much like making murder illegal hinders people who want to kill people.
There is no difference in practice between removing rights of individuals and leaving the ECHR. The end outcome is still the same, people lose rights. If human rights are an obstacle to your policy it is not the rights which are the issue, it is your policy. Labour going full Reform at this stage.
