Not for the first time, I’m being told that attacking Farage for his boyhood racism is futile. The opposite is the case, as you can see from how rattled he is by it.
And no, it’s not about persuading Farage fans anything, it’s about mobilising the non-voters and encouraging tactical voting.

The thing about listening to @alexpodyssey.bsky.social is that you begin to see parallels between Greek myths and modern life everywhere. I can't listen to the news now without thinking of Cassandra, or Aesop, or Midas, or golden apples. Oh that I had been taught classics this way at school.

Not the first to make this point. But there is a tyrant in charge of another country who is accused of being heavily linked to a paedophile sex ring - and supposed ‘patriots’ in this country are passionately willing him to take down our national broadcaster. Madness.

Every time I hear a politician say that an issue is “dividing” this country they always then come down on the side of the right wing view of it. Just once I’d love to hear someone say “this issue is divisive, which is why I’m making the argument that kindness and compassion is important”
