I am sad, and fucking angry, at how my country is swerving to the right in support of racists and cowards.
The UK *needs* immigration. It doesn't need 'reform'.

@AlisonW It's like the whole nation is looking at what's going on in the USA and is saying "I'll have some of that".

@IcyBee @AlisonW About 1/3 from what I can see. The constant unchallenged barrage of bullshit from the ever present face of five jobs Farage is what makes me despair the most. Given 1/10 the scrutiny practically any politician on the left gets he’d be exposed for what he is.

The big problem is that the BBC powers that be just love him to bits. 😡

@AlisonW @IcyBee Johnson appointed arch brexiter Robbie Gibb to the BBC board. He threatened to tear it down unless they swung harder to the right. I know some folks at the BBC, they aren’t necessarily pleased with all the goings on.

@bjn @AlisonW Two thirds, not one. Don't give non-voters a free pass. They bear equal responsibility for the results.
