Well I didn’t detect your sarcasm true. Thats because without context it wasn’t really good sarcasm, it was stating exactly word for word what so many Farage supporters have been saying. Without knowing you personally how are we supposed to detect sarcasm as opposed to it being your actual opinion?

I’m cool!

Try writing something sarcastic? One word isn’t really that

Bernard Manning is a different person to Nigel Farage. Allow me to Let you into a secret though. Manning was never running for political office. You had a choice whether to engage with him and huge numbers of people in North Manchester thought he was a gross sexist and racist man too.

In my RC grammar boys school with lots of sons of Ukrainian, polish and other Eastern Europe refugees, any admiration for Nazism would have been dealt with robustly without much intervention from staff. However I never witnessed any such behaviour. We didn’t all do it. I am the same age as Farage

Such clear moral thinking!

He has denied it not admitted it and sent out his mates to deny it too

You’re right he won’t but the allegations must still be made as he hopefully will be held to

Is there a nice simple guide to the bond market? I don’t even understand how you make money on them

Good plan although a better choice of sweet would be lions midget gems

Every neighbourhood has a Ned Flanders

The question I would ask is would his presence have improved decision making? I really think he had absolutely no nothing to offer as a PM and was best kept away. Unfortunately the authority resided in the office he held
November 23, 2025 at 1:01 PM
I wonder if he had anyone particular in mind?

Is pushing gilts down good or bad? I’ve never understood bond markets

Fair enough, you may know his biography much better than I do. I still think that with Trump as with Franco they aligned themselves with the ‘conservative’ option that didn’t challenge the church. But it is always about ‘the church’.
November 14, 2025 at 5:26 PM
Oh they would always vote conservatively and Trump was what was on offer. They would ALWAYS vote for the anti-abortion candidate as that issue seems to override all others. I’m in the UK I recall my very conservative father voting once for a Labour candidate who happened to be pro-life.

Escriva never set out to cause harm to others. He wasn’t a sociopathic abusive narcissist, to compare him to Trump is unfair. Trump is a thoroughly abhorrent man, Opus Dei is intolerant, with a reactionary approach to people lives but I wouldn’t say it was maliciously ambitious
November 14, 2025 at 4:47 PM
Well growing up I knew a lot about Opus Dei. My father was a member. It was full of weird, intense and obsessively religious people with a cultist approach to Escriva but they were generally sincere and humble. They genuinely felt that good came from their approach, it wasn’t ambition
November 14, 2025 at 4:41 PM
As someone who really really dislikes many aspects of Opus dei I still think that’s unfair.

Will there now be a thorough search of the Albert Hall?
November 13, 2025 at 7:51 AM
Well I’m not from the USA but I am 100% sure that all that will happen is money will be siphoned upwards. Trump has zero interest in the needs of ordinary Americans, he regards them as useful idiots
