Yinka Bankole was 12 when Farage spotted him in the playground:

“He towered over me. ‘Where are you from?’ he asked. Within seconds of offering my rather confused and sputtering answers, he had a clear response: ‘That’s the way back to Africa,’.”

Former Dulwich pupil says Farage told him: ‘That’s the way back to Africa’
Exclusive: Yinka Bankole says he felt compelled to speak out after Reform leader’s attempts to ‘dismiss’ hurt of alleged targets

I'm old enough to remember when Reform member and Russian bribe taker Nathan Gill was in the news...
Given how much the China spy case has dominated headlines, it really does beg the question: why is our political-media class so uninterested in Nathan Gill, his Russian bribes, his once close associate Nigel Farage, and Reform UK?

I'm not sure that I'd invest in #Plato's 'legacy ERP'-boosting system (what that?), given that the founders don't know a) how to set up a usable football table, nor b) apparently comply with fire exit safety regs? Seen in UK #Wired Winter 2025

From a throat mic vocoder-vibe of 1970s BBC drama 'Gangsters' (ok, a niche ref), to #Brighton-based Quatermass III's' self-defined 'Open University synths' - plus a bit of glam -- and perhaps a few of the underrated 'Pre New's' riffs -- what's not to like about #QuatermassIII's #Lucky7?

Disappointed by second #RutgerBregman #BBC #ReithLecture - a bit vague and 'hand-wavy' about 'what one should do' to fight the good fight ('2. How to Start a Moral Revolution') , imho; hopefully third will regain traction and focus of the excellent first talk. www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

How about doing a bit of real journalism #BBC #ChrisMason? Others can manage it on tiny budgets why can't you? And why does the BBC have a geography graduate as its chief polittical reporter? bsky.app/profile/otto...
#BBC #PoliticalEditor #ChrisMason has run out of steam re Chancellor's budget, perhaps he can apply some of his efforts and our licence fee towards asking #Farage about Nigel's multiply corroborated alleged neo-Nazi politics, and his finances? If #GMB can do it, why not BBC? youtu.be/wQfCIyqqhbk?...

It's all bad but hadn't seen the bit where Farage says:

"The European Union is the prototype for the New World Order."

That is a seriously, deeply problematic term that taps into Illuminati and antisemitic conspiracy theories.

How the fuck did this man direct the course of our politics?
We kept the receipts. These comments, taken together, paint a picture of the man he is today.

I hope someone draws this wonderful story about Tom Stoppard's Arcadia and the power of the arts to help us see things differently, to the attention of our Education Secretary. Do read it, it will lift your spirits.
