@mrjamesob.bsky.social FARAGE FLIGHT. Our educated young people are greener, left leaning more & pro EU.
Reform are absolutely everything they hate. The old people who vote for Farage have ripped our young people out of Europe & promise them a fossil fuel future of austerity & slavery to the 1%.

Who knows what anyone's breaking point is? The rhetoric, betrayal, these abductions & assaults on people by masked thugs, the sight of uniformed & armed guards on every street might be particularly triggering & disenchanting for some individuals. IF this isn't a ruse to further this admin's agenda.

The thought of possibly losing asylum, especially for someone who was a member of Afghanistan's analogue of the Vietnam era Phoenix program, could be destabilizing.
No idea why an Afghan refugee shot National Guard soldiers within walking distance of the White House, but this new USCIS directive was revealed on Monday. Worth noting.
The folks at @afghanevac.bsky.social have in hand a new USCIS directive which largely targets Afghan refugees who fled the Taliban in the wake of the U.S. withdrawal in 2021.
In case you needed a reminder that the most loathsome people in the world work for DHS.

Yes, govt bent to pressure from MPs over the benefit cap.
That's how parliamentary democracy works - and why it's a good thing.
It means a leader has to carry a wider movement with them. There's a counter-pressure to the strategists in No. 10.
It matters that we elect a Parliament, not just a PM.

I see Farage now hates emigration as well as immigration. The trouble is, he’s a big part of why people are emigrating. Brexit has made the U.K. a less attractive place for everyone.

Serious howls of outrage in the media this morning at what is a relatively modest Budget from Labour that does nothing more than fiddle around the margins.
It does highlight the missed opportunity. If you’re going to get this reaction anyway, why not at least get it for attempting a big swing?

Why would they, they cheerlead everything we despise and despise everything we love. #fuckthetimes #fuckreform
Quick analysis of The Times today:
Wall to wall negative coverage of Labour’s budget. An editorial that tuts about lack of growth but takes no responsibility. And a double page ad to join Farage/Reform.
Absolutely no analysis on how rightwing ideology - including Brexit - has been utterly ruinous.

He really is a racist piece of shit
December 2014 and Nigel Farage defends dropped UKIP candidate Kerry Smith. He defends the racist slur "chinky", the homophobic slur "poofter" and suggests it is what people who live in council houses say (which is class based bigotry). Even Nick Ferrari is less than impressed.
