#LiberalDemocrats Jane Dodds didn't even scratch the surface of how stupid #NigelFarage is.

All of the #ReformUKLtd et al. rhetoric about Great Replacement and a middle eastern religion coming to the British Isles to set up its own law, can be *exactly* applied to the Christianization of Britain, canon law, and the introduction of Latin and 'Ænglisc', to speakers of Brittonic, by immigrants arriving in their small boats.

And the Blue Books.

The one thing even more shameful than that rentamouth gobshite #NigelFarage calling the #Welsh 'foreign speakers' for cash is the ignorant bigot who asked Farage to call them 'foreigners' on #Cameo for a wedding video.
