Farage mastered the art of fluffy racism at an early age and was so subtle that 100% of his victims never realised that he wasn’t being a nasty, toxic little racist fascist sh*t
That he was actually being a really nice, fun racist❗️🙄🙄

Nigel Farage describes schoolboy racism claims as ‘banter in a playground’
The Reform UK leader was accused of making racist and antisemitic comments to classmates while at Dulwich College but said he never did so ‘with intent’

The news that a national lockdown could have been avoided is shattering. Kemi Badenoch should apologise on behalf of the Conservatives.
People will never forgive them for partying while they left the country vulnerable and grieving.

Farage has a long history of racism.
Chris Mason will be along later to explain that “this is why Starmer must resign”.

It's not a coincidence that the four most damaging politicians of the last two decades (Cameron, Osborne, Johnson and Farage) are all the products of English public schools.

Trump's prosecutions of Comey and Letitia James fell apart precisely because he ousted career prosecutors who insisted on following facts and law. His installation of a pliant stooge is what blew up in his face.

Remember that Farage was one of the laziest MEPs.
He rarely turned up for a vote.
I wonder what was so special about this one?😉

This is exactly what the recent Trump-BBC 'scandal' was designed to achieve. The BBC is now self-censoring criticisms of Trump in the name of "impartiality"
I wish I didn’t have to share this. But the BBC has decided to censor my first Reith Lecture.
They deleted the line in which I describe Donald Trump as “the most openly corrupt president in American history.” /1

It really matters because Farage relies on both a veneer of public ‘respectability’ *and* an undercoat of racism to further his bid for power. He won’t get there without both. So, it’s very important that the ‘respectability’ element is justifiably stripped away.

The BBC censoring criticism of Trump from one of their Reith Lectures is seriously worrying.
The Liberal Democrats have written to the BBC Director General Tim Davie urging him to stand firm against Trump’s bullying and broadcast the lecture in full.

All the supposedly progressive people saying 'Nigel Farage's racism doesn't matter. His fans love it'.
It matters whether the leader of the party leading all the opinion polls is an outright racist. It matters if he called black people 'wogs' and said 'gas them' to Jews. Not everything is a game
