Are people in Clacton really this stupid and gullible? If they think Farage will speak for them and represent them, I have a very nice bridge I wish to sell them.

I'm tired of being called a racist but I feel like a stranger in my own country. :rolleyes:


A short clip, but there's still too much to say about it. Just to note, that 'I'm not a racist but'' bloke with the beard used to be a BNP agitator in Barking. He has formerly been known to associate with Nick Griffin, Tommy Robinson, Nigel Farage and latterly Suella Braverman. He's been used as a political plant and can be seen (without the beard) in a number of BBC Question programmes when Farage or Braverman have been on the panel. Like this one in fact where he applauds the very wild Braverman lying to the public about the Brexit divorce bill.

I seem to recall a couple of posters getting very heated when I said Labour were catching up with the SNP.

Well, I've got some bad news for you...

Just a shame that many of my fellow Scots feel that Scotland's future is to continue being Westminster's bitch and the resultant failed policies which will achieve nothing. :sad:

I did like Swinney putting the boot into Labour and the Conservatives a couple of days ago. I hope he doesn't lose that zeal.

I wonder what went behind the scenes with Farage. Or was he just delaying his appearance in order to extend his TV show.
Or did agreements fall through or succeed?

It has to be worse for the cons even if we are still stuck with loads of deluded racist people. It is a puzzle where people like Mogg, Truss and Leadsom go, them not exactly being vote winners. I suppose Mogg could just retire though I suspect he still needs to be a politician to keep his TV contract.

Egos need massaging. I'd rather Mogg 'massaged his ego' in private; I've had enough of his faux intellectual masturbation.

He's an opportunist so probably just waiting to see where public opinion was and what was happening in the Tory party after the election was announced. I doubt he expects to win but if he has a good turn out it might be seen as pressure on the Tories to move more to the right. Nigel's so slippery it's hard to work out what his end game is in terms of where he personally ends up. Like Galloway, he's really not cut out to be an MP - all that constituency work! Visiting Clacton once a month?! - but like Galloway he talks a good game and likes the attention, so it could be as simple as that.

Here's an interesting thing.

The snap poll by YouGov suggests that Sunak "won" the debate 51% to 49%.
The snap poll by Savanta judged it as 39% for Sunak and 44% for Starmer and also that Starmer won every major point
The snap poll by JL Partners called it as 33% for Sunak and 53% for Starmer

Now, considering that these are supposed to be independent polling companies, do we think that there is any correlation between the results and the small detail that YouGov was founded by staunch right wing conservatives, Savanta by a Barrister and JL Parterns by and American political advisor and an academic behavioural specialist in research methods and referendum campaigns.

All three companies could be argued to have right wing founders, but Nadim Zahawi's YouGov maybe a bit more so. Also odd that YouGov didn't have anyone who was unsure. Slightly disappointing that the BBC led with YouGov's stats rather than the somewhat matching stats of the other two polling companies. Again, I am quite sure that it has nothing to do with the influence of the BBC Governor Tim Davie who is notoriously independent despite being deputy chairman of the Hammersmith and Fulham Conservative Association in the 1990s.

George Galloway MP. He's a creepily good MP. That is where MP means 'man pussy'.

Mogg has a TV show? That's got to be on GBeebies?

That Victorian melt must be so confused by the technology behind television.

I attempt to watch these things occasionally. Mogg, whilst having a pleasant demeanour follows his political line to the point of denial.
He would not be a vote asset to Reform. Farage is more watchable yet Farage is odious.

Even if he became an MP he will avoid attending parliament as much as he can. His opportunist EU stint was essentially easy money and zero attendance. His TV show would move to Clacton I guess. An easy pretence. The craving for power hopefully destroys the far right by watering it down.
