Adam Jacobs ๐บ๐ฆThose of you who have been following me for a while will know that I'm not #Starmer's greatest fan, but credit where it's due, his response to the #FrogFacedGrifter here is absolutely spot on.
If a left wing politician made a speech whipping up outrage about something, and then a bunch of left wing thugs went on a riot the same evening, injuring several police officers and causing considerable damage to property, I think the right wing media would be totally losing their shit about it.
And the politician who stirred it all up would probably be facing criminal charges for inciting violence.
But the #FrogFacedGrifter always gets a free pass on such things from our media, doesn't he?

Ah, I see we have more #FarageRiots.
The #FrogFacedGrifter must be very pleased with himself this morning. There is nothing he enjoys more than whipping up violent disorder.
If mental gymnastics were an Olympic sport, #NadhimZahawi would surely be a hot favourite for the gold medal.
Watching him interviewed on Sky News this morning trying to argue in the very same interview that the #FrogFacedGrifter absolutely needed ยฃ5 million to pay for his security because of this hostility that politicians face from the public, and that it's fine to offer to buy a pint for someone who swears aggressively at politicians, was really quite a show.
@Angelina He totally is. It's very hard to imagine what he would possibly be doing differently from what he's currently doing if his stated mission were to make sure that the #FrogFacedGrifter becomes PM after the next election.
@MacNaBracha I love the subtle differences in the way English is spoken north and south of the border. Down here in England, we refer to him as the #FrogFacedGrifter, but actually I think the Scottish version of that has a great ring to it.
@Nicovel0 @johnelalamo I really have no plans to ever leave the UK, but if the #FrogFacedGrifter wins the next election and things start to seriously go south, then I might have to rethink that.
Spain is definitely a country I would consider. Also France or Ireland. Maybe one or two others. Not sure really, my thoughts on this subject have been a bit hypothetical so far.
Dave RobinsonI believe the #FrogFacedGrifter (aka #FascistFarage) has offered to heat #Zahawi's stables by burning immigrants.
If I were in charge, any politician who was elected after breaking election law would immediately lose their seat and be required to pay back any salary they were paid since the election.
And then barred from standing for election for another 10 years.
And have to do 400 hours community service.
Maybe in the #FrogFacedGrifter's case cleaning the loos in an asylum hotel would be appropriate?
Oh look who's been breaking election rules.
It's always the ones you least suspect, isn't it?
Only allegations at this stage, nothing proven, but what really pisses me off is that even if proven you know that the only thing that's going to happen will be a token fine that will be pocket change for Reform's Russian backers.
There is no meaningful disincentive for any well-funded political party to break election law.
