Finally some correct use of the term "terrorism" and correct application of "anti-terrorist" by a UK #Police force.

I won't hold my breath waiting for the next logical step, holding the agitators to account.

Ah it was one of Nige's foot soldiers "protecting the country".

#NigelFarage's spin doctoring outdoes even the spin doctoring of the Tony Blair years.

#ReformUKLtd's failure is Someone Else's Fault, never its own.

The candidate being sexist and the campaign involving fakery like pretending that that 'I would vote for Jimmy Savile' RUKL councillor is a vox pop, are nothing to do with it, apparently.

But then that's RUKL, BP, UKIP, et al. all over. Blame someone else: foreigners, non-Christians, greens, …

@iandunt.bsky.social I'm sure that #ReformUKLtd think that there's a simple solution for that problem.

They're good at thinking of simple solutions.

Their actions always make more sense once one finds out that they are the pro-fossil-fuels party, and take the donations from the people with fossil fuels interests.

Hence why they always appear to be cancelling public transport, cycling, and pedestrian projects in favour of cars; under the guise their regressive and unsustainable policies somehow being 'common sense'.

Why is that the people "on the side of right" are so often afraid to show their faces when they turn up in public places to support that side?

Watch any decent documentary about the rise of Fascism in 1930s Europe and then show me where the differences are from what is happening now?

* A zealot who seems to be able to sway people with racist ideas is backed by financiers who think they can profit from his actions.

* These financiers own and control the mass media channels consumed by large portions of the population and seed then promote the idea that their candidate is a valid politician no matter how often they fail to actually convince voters.

* A small cult finally rises around a central figure and the reinforcement of their ideology goes into overdrive.

* Groups of people are de-humanised and constantly blamed for things they are not responsible for.

* The press and media back this up and in many cases amplify it. Portraying racism and reactionary lies as "an alternative view" to be balanced with actual facts.

* "Traditional" political groups and politicians start leaning into the hateful rhetoric in the mistaken belief it will benefit them.

* Tragic events involving "the right sort of people" committing crrimes are ignored but any transgression by a member of the de-humanised group(s) is declared a cause for "protest" and leads to violence.

* Despite openly causing the violence and unrest, the media and government take no action against the agitators.

...

* Kristalnacht, "legal" oppression, desensitisation to oppression and then mass recruitment...

It is already happening in the USA, it is close to happening in many other places, right now the UK is on the verge of a tipping point. Will people believe the reality yet? Will non-white business owners be targeted next? Will people believe the reality once their local take-away and convenience stores are burned out?

I am in a very deep state of despair and struggling very hard to understand how people can keep letting this happen.

By the way: If your luck is anything like mine, you have accidentally stumbled across the home of the 'chair' of the #ReformUKLtd 'group' (whatever that is) for #NewForestWest.

Who defected from the Libertarian Party (of England) some years ago.

I just had a related experience discovering why driving through the West Midlands is as it is.

Being coy about the party name is completely undone by that footnote. (-:

Anyone else wondering whether Russian hackers (many well known to be deniable Kremlin quasi-state actors) got access to Nigel Farago's 'phone cos he shared his password with his best mate, Vlad 'You're KGB for life' Putin?
