Re:Politics Date Posted:2026-07-09 07:40:13Copy HTML Lord eh? The first man to start all of this crazy candidate stuff was screaming Lord Sutch and I think he’s promoting himself on the same lines as the original |

Re:Politics Date Posted:2026-07-10 08:06:20Copy HTML Ever since Farage entered politics, the establishment have been trying to remove him. He’s stiring up the peasants too much and giving them what they politically want and they are without doubt going to make sure he does not reach number 10. He has been deliberately targeted and what is going on now has nothing to do with ethics and more to do with making sure he never gets to number 10. Both the Tories and labour will work together on this because they don’t want their little cozy system of taking turns in government to end. Remember the debanking scandal where they closed Farage’s bank account for no reason whatsoever. This is fascist behaviour from a party that cries fascist if you profess admiration for Margaret Thatcher. The police are now part of this process employed to keep you in your place. The whole of the civil service is united in conspiring to keep Farage out. The whole of Parliament is mired in corruption and sleaze in a way it has never been before, it’s always been there but to this extent. The unholy alliance between the government the establishment and the police are working to keep Farage out and the rest of us completely under control. Why do you think there has been so many arrests for people expressing their opinion? There are numerous examples of Farage being hounded and having his life put in danger. He was in a pub, how did they know he was there? When suddenly around 50 people turned up to get him. How did those lefty lunatics know where he was? He made an escape out of the back and into his car on the way out they surrounded his car and beat it so badly it was a right off. How do we know this because Farage and his team have finally exposed it. The newspapers never said a word about it the TV world never say a word about it. Imagine if that had happened to Starmer when he wasn’t p.m.? There would be a national inquiry and the police would have gone to extreme lengths to get the people involved, just like they did to the people that rioted after the Southport child massacre. We live in politically dangerous times and if we want to make a start in reversing this pernicious socialist state there has to be a new government and I mean a new government. Farage himself is not doing himself any favours by slowly falling into the old political way of the rest of them. He got rid of Rupert Lowe because he thought his rhetoric too open too radical now Lowe has waltzed off with a quarter of his vote. They have to kiss and make up for the sake of the country before it’s too late to do anything about reversing the appalling censorship and state oppression we are watching right now |

Re:Politics Date Posted:2026-07-10 11:42:20Copy HTML As long as Reform don't mess things up with stupid comments, financial scandals etc the will of the people will prevail. But Reform, being new to this kind of thing, are prone to picking candidates with skeletons in the cupboard and of course the mainstream media/politicians will sniff them out. Personally I'll stick with the Tories, but won't be dismayed if Reform win. You're playing chess with Fate and Fate's winning.

Re:Politics Date Posted:2026-07-10 01:02:17Copy HTML France beat Morocco in the world cup and Moroccans in Paris run riot destroying cars, vans, breaking shop fronts and looting. England didn't beat them but they ran riot in London last night, causing damage and fear and the police sent around twenty coppers in hi-viz vests and nothing more. They had to run for their lives. Had those rioters been Brits, they would have deployed riot police in full armour with clubs and shields and armed with tear gas. |

Re:Politics Date Posted:2026-07-10 03:28:50Copy HTML Harry Markle's long-awaited family homecoming may be in jeopardy. Seems the re-union planned in early July may be postponed when the British government declined Mr. Markle's request for police protection outside of royal residences leaving him "distraught." |

Re:Politics Date Posted:2026-07-10 09:57:13Copy HTML If Harry had stayed as a working Royal, he would be as important as he thinks he is. Better said, as important as he could have been.

Re:Politics Date Posted:2026-07-11 11:42:47Copy HTML They have very different paths. Harry would be stellar as a working Royal with charities and fundraising. Indeed, he started off well in that direction. Somewhere along the line his life took a left turn at Albuquerque and he seems to have descended into paranoia and a self-inflated sense of importance. That's my take. It's a repetition of history, really. "It is forbidden to spit on cats in plague-time."

Re:Politics Date Posted:2026-07-12 05:20:31Copy HTML Meghan was never going to be a British Royal, I'm sure her intention from the start was to settle in the USA with the title and prestige it brings. You're playing chess with Fate and Fate's winning.

Re:Politics Date Posted:2026-07-14 08:56:20Copy HTML Ten years later, Brexit still roils UK politics. Britain considers restoring closer ties to EU, but its open-border policies are anathema to many voters. The EU sought to guarantee free movement of goods and services. That was OK, but it also applied to free movement of people, and that caused a growing immigration problem & that was not. The EU issue is not going away. It will continue to bedevil British politics for the foreseeable future.

Re:Politics Date Posted:2026-07-15 05:19:31Copy HTML Very little from the police yet, but it looks like he was a mad Leftie, you know one of those who preach tolerance, unless you disagree with them. A lot of fuss over announcing that he was a white man, if they hadn't the internet would have exploded with theories that he was a Muslim, so these days the police give out the ethnicity of a suspect or detainee to dampen speculation. You're playing chess with Fate and Fate's winning.

Source Bruce Anderson, commentator. The whole thing is an insoluble mess, I've said before we're too bound up with the EU to be fully out, no government, not even a Reform one, will sort this out satisfactorily. |

Re:Politics Date Posted:2026-07-15 11:31:45Copy HTML It now appears that when Starmer was head of public prosecution he issued around 13,000 warning letters to Pakistani rapists. The head of the Rotherham police, who was responsible for the hiding of it all is now the head of counter terrorism in Britain. The lengths to which the lefty's in this country go to cover up this epic scandal is a national disgrace. The whole establishment are up to their necks in this, which is why the refuse to give any protection to Nigel Farage, a party leader and possible next PM, if they don't assassinate him first. |
