It’s why the far right in Reform and the Tory party, and their enablers in this Labour government are now pushing deportation - “there’s already too many forriners here” - in order to maintain the process of stirring up bigotry and hatred.

And we add £7bilion to the deficit for every 100,000 drop

To appease economically illiterate racists and xenophobes

Don’t worry. Reform will miraculously find a former schoolmate to deny all the allegations
A former schoolmate who recently - entirely coincidentally- came into a load of money.

Cf. Grooming enquiry.

Me too but they tend to react badly to air travel.

Racists get so upset when they are identified as racists.

Which is why media descriptions of bigotry as ‘legitimate concerns’ are so poisonous, making what everyone -even racists - know is disgraceful become somehow acceptable.

Farage works for Putin.

It really is that simple.

To be fair opinions differ: some people think Farage is a corrupt racist liar while others think he’s a fraudulent dishonest bigot.

Oh dear oh dear.

You brought up the ‘fact’ of 120 years ago. No one else .

And curiously while you were pontificating selectively on Russian history you were omitting the facts of that saga which literally price the exact opposite of your ‘point’.

Confronting and shaming is not harassment

Oh dear.

You literally used the communist revolution as an example in your frankly bizarre attempt to argue against a strategy of protest of the kind adopted by the Suffragettes.
November 18, 2025 at 11:15 AM
Sigh.

You used the example of efforts to change the Tsarist Russian regime (a despotic undemocratic regime) to support your ‘argument’.

Your definition of harassment is awry to put it generously.

And this government has attacked and savaged this ‘best protected’ right to protest.

Exactly.

Labour are finished. No one with a shred of moral integrity can support them.
