Nigel Farage, interviewed in 2014 about the contents of Chloe Deakin's 1981 letter setting out his racism and racist behaviour, offered this denial that he ever sang Hitler Youth songs. 20 people have now confirmed what Deakin wrote.

Please check out this ancient Egyptian painting, found in a tomb. It's small, but very beautiful. It doesn't feel like it is thousands of years old.

When people like Lucy White thunder the explicit racism of "there should not be a single person born in Pakistan in the UK House of Commons", ask them whether Boris Johnson, who was born in America, should have been permitted to be the Mayor of London, an MP, and the PM.

Nigel Farage asked about Reform MS Laura Anne Jones (who the Senedd Commissioner found had used a racist term in a staff WhatsApp chat in August 2023 while discussing TikTok writing: “No chinky spies for me.”)
"Well, she used a word that colloquially, probably was meant in a nice way 20 years ago."

That categorical denial of racism from Nigel Farage got watered down & caveated later: banter, 49 years ago, no intent, not directed at anyone, not in a hurtful way, it didn't happen, I don't remember, how do they remember, I was a teenager, it's political. The about turns makes one's head spin.

Initially, GB News presented Nigel Farage's full throated denial of any racial comments or harassment of fellow pupils at school. The allegations were called a smear, and Farage denied them "categorically".

You’ve been kidnapped. The characters from the last TV show you watched are trying to rescue you. Who’s coming to save you?

Lewisham Bluesky! The new Asian supermarket near the train station is worth checking out. Baked good, frozen food, spice mixes and sauces, and oodles of noodles. Thank you to @brianhaines.bsky.social for telling me about it!

Reminds me of the wine glasses which are traditional in Alsace.

Susan Hall RTs post suggesting only fleeing war warrants asylum, singling out Pakistanis. Asylum can be for many reasons. Minorities (Christians, Hindus, Shias) face persecution, women and LGBT people face "honour" violence in Pakistan. Simple unawareness or deliberate ignorance based on racism?

Susan Hall is sharing misinformation that Tesco has banned Christmas because they're selling a single tree in "evergreen tree" packaging. But why are several trees in a Christmas box? And why are other trees online clearly labelled as "Christmas" trees?

Susan Hall is on the London Assembly, so she would be in a position to know that asylum seekers do not get a Freedom Pass for free transport in London. So why is she sharing this demonstrably false story?

Birbalsingh QTs a post bemoaning the fact at their shop only non-white elves were available. The 3rd picture shows the company do make white elves. Not only does she use the US "DEI", but she seems to think there's something wrong with brown elves being available.

Liz Truss is now just a full on culture wars addict. BBC bashing is just her new jam. Until the next culture war comes up.
