Left wing media stitch up. The establishment don’t want Farage so have scraped the barrel finding people from 50 years ago to say he is a racist and anti semite. I’m no Farage fan but anyone with half a brain can see what’s happening here.

Are you saying he doesn’t hold those views & never did?
Or are you perfectly happy to have a potential PM with those views?
Have said before if these allegations were about Starmer you’d be outraged

You, and, seemingly, many like you, absolutely need (NEED) Farage to be a Nazi: cannot forgive him for the very popular and successful Brexit, cannot forgive him for successfully challenging traditional 2-party politics.

Re: The Official Politics Thread (enter at your own risk)
I see that the Guardian (fully supported by the BBC) are now doing a full-on Nazi/Goebbels on Farage.
The spite of the left when they can't get their own way (and then impose it on everybody else) knows no bounds.

This can't be true, this is the totally IMPARTIAL BBC we're talking about. An institution of such moral integrity and sense of fairness would never stoop to this kind of thing.
What cracks me up is not only was the audience loaded up, but so was the panel, as per which I find remarkable considering the serious heat on them for clear Politcial bias involving Trump. I'm almost impressed by their arrogance and superiority to just carry on doing it in plain sight after everything. Almost psychopathic.
Re: The Official Politics Thread (enter at your own risk)
I think that delving back into someone’s past especially when remarking on things said by an individual in their formative years is indicative of some kind of desperation.
In terms of what Farage has admitted to saying and doing back then it shows how someone who was prepared to to engage in anti semitic bullying has been able to transition to adulthood putting that sort of juvenile behaviour behind him.
It’s what we are like as adults that count and we should ultimately be judged by our grown up words and deeds. And in Farage’s case there is plenty to take him to task on so leave his young life out of things.

Re: The Official Politics Thread (enter at your own risk)
just heard that Question-Time on the BBC last night, allowed 'illegal migrants to have their say on QT's Immigration-Special. Apparently it was revealed that one of the migrants had an ear-piece in when answering questions. It was also muted that it was a rigged audience with hardly any dissenting voices but lots of rapturous applause for Zack Polanski who wants 'open' boarders... QT was held in Dover, not the most pro-immigration area.
in other news, looks like Lammy has forgot to shut the gate, re-Labour's plans for rejoining the EU via the back door.
what is it with the Establishment in this country?... smoke, mirrors & lies.

If Starmer doesn't cancel all future general elections, even if Reform won, they will try and tie Russian influence to it, like in Romania.
There really is no future in democracy for the far left, they want a global dictatorship.
All about the EU.

if we had a leader with the minerals like Maggie we'd be just fine , like we always have been throughout our history.

Re: The Official Politics Thread (enter at your own risk)
Rather than start a new thread, thought this one would be as good as any.
Does anyone else receive work messages around this time of year, a ‘gentle reminder’ to you all, to bear in mind others faiths, around Christmas blah, blah, blah
Can anyone explain to me how this isn’t discrimination in itself?
The people who send these messages would not dream to send the same to us all around Eid or Passover, as they realise this would be wrong and it would also create a shitstorm.
So how can the Christmas message not be outright discrimination?
If you’re lucky like me, you might also work with similar imbeciles, who will send this kind of message out, followed quickly by another one, encouraging colleagues to turn up in Christmas jumpers at the next meeting.
