Reform is a cult that gives its members permission to be evil. #RefUKkers

Citizen of nowhere - now here in the UK. Academic but without a field (I‘m not a donkey) or a tribe (I‘m not a caveman). Also metal head! 💀🤘🏻
Hoping the latest Reform scandal will bring down Farage is forgetting one thing: Transgression is part of the far-right’s appeal. I’ve written about this: www.gerhardschnyder.com/brexit-impac... Far right feeds on people’s frustrations. Breaking the rules of an unfair society is the whole point!
"I want your children's lungs to be smaller and less functional" is a bold electoral strategy.
Err, um,cough,ahem, uh....why hasn't President Rapist sued Ted Lieu? Well, obviously.......👉👹👈
Our rapid disillusionment with political leaders is treated by much of the media as some kind of pathology. But what I see is these leaders backtracking on their promises, dashing people's hopes and serving the ultra-rich ahead of the rest of the population. Why wouldn't we be disillusioned?
George Monbiot@georgemonbiot.bsky.social · last mo.So the ultra-rich will continue to own our politics, and our country. Disappointing to say the least. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...
The depressing thing about the US isn't Trump really. He's just a grotesque. It's the complete failure of all the things liberals believe in: Congress, the judiciary, the press, voters themselves, all persistently unwilling or unable to stop him. It's the failure of an entire society.

Spending the summer at home in London with the occasional day trip to the sea- or countryside sounds like a super relaxing summer holiday. It is not. At least not when you decide to travel by train. Why does the British public put up with this? www.gerhardschnyder.com/blog/2026/8/...

What worries me most about this saga is what it tells us about how the Tories assess where the countries right-leaning electorate stands: You get more votes by doubling down on appearing like facist apologists than admitting a mistake and firmly condemning that ideology. I really hope they are wrong

"[Byline] revealed that Cottrell entered corporate finance under a false Swiss identity, hired by the same City network that produced Reform UK’s own treasurer, Mehrtash A’zami. "Byline Times has since confirmed that this identity was stolen from a real person – Cottrell’s old school friend."

Nigel Farage's approval ratings have now sunk even lower than Keir Starmer's before he resigned, yet we're still being encouraged to believe he has some kind of magic connection with the British public

Ian Wright saying we shouldn’t forget the way the Iranian team and the Somali referee were treated. Correct.
All it takes for Reform to fail is the shadow tanker fleet of the BBC, right wing press, and nervous media oligarchs, to turn away from their current course, and actually report some rather inconvenient truths about political corruption around crypto and money laundering

Fear, hate and racism whipped up by ugly politicians and irresponsible media. With Musk’s X spreading the word and organising their fascist foot soldiers. This is the rage that Farage called for. These are his people. This is his racist, hateful, angry Britain. app.independent.co.uk/2026/06/10/2...

Labour responds to reports Nigel Farage owes almost £10k for county court judgment after pocketing £5 million: “Farage’s finances just get murkier and murkier. If this is how he handles his own affairs, the public can have no faith in his ability to manage the public finances if Reform won power."
So, Labour tears itself apart to try to stop Farage being our next PM just as he finally faces scrutiny in a monumental corruption scandal which could… and really should…end his political career. I’d go hard on that rather than each other right now guys. giftarticle.ft.com/giftarticle/...
