Don't be ridiculous. You sound like Trump. Next you'll be saying "They're eating the pets!"
Democrats will execute their plan to end democracy in America if they gain control

The Covid Inquiry Report, the ITV documentary on Reform, completely ignored by #bbclaurak All the focus today was on freedom of movement and how it’s a bad thing. I don’t think there’s ever been more compromised journalists at the BBC than Kuenssberg and Mason.

They are fucked. Completely fucked. For Reform momentum is everything. Once they lose that, it’s game over. They have no plan for when it happens either. This is the beginning of the end for them.

This probably hits hard if you failed history in high school. Hitler was a far-Right fascist whose party was named the National Socialist German Workers' Party to attract working-class voters. Then he banned the Social Democratic and Communist parties, and sent socialists and communists to concentration camps.
Hitler was a far left socialist. Literally in the name of his party!

As a former prime minister, Liz Truss is a significant political figure. But after branding the Financial Times part of the 'deep state' and describing the left as 'Islamo-communist', she has clearly degenerated into a full-on gibbering rightwing conspiracist whackjob.

Odd that Reform a year ago were the champions of free speech and a free press, yet now they are demanding the arrest of journalists who investigate them. Hypocritical, authoritarian and not going to boost their poll numbers.

Bad news: the BBC is set to scrap Radio 4 Extra. 📻 Losing this treasure trove of classic comedy, archive drama, and timeless storytelling would be a huge blow for millions of us. Sign the petition to help save it 👇 you.38degrees.org.uk/petitio… via @38degrees

Reform say they will be pursuing legal action against ITV. One wonders how you can charge an organisation with discovering & revealing the truth?

ITV footage shows racist, sexual, violent rhetoric among Reform members. These lunatics say “King Charles is a f***ing Muslim… " and want him to be beheaded. They want concentration camps for migrants, violence against minorities. Return of the Nazis. independent.co.uk/news/uk/po…

Black and brown people. Please exercise your right to vote whenever you can. Make sure Reform and Restore NEVER win in your area. As a white person, I find their views abhorrent. Never let them win.
This is a shocking watch. But it needs to be seen. This is what's going on inside Nigel Farage's party.

So Nigel Farage will prosecute news outlets for reporting things his party actually said? Who does that remind you of?

And it keeps coming ITV's undercover Reform exposé tonight: 🔹 Board member Gawain Towler and who has worked with Farage for 20yrs "I was racist every single day" at school 🔹 Farage jokes about the Dulwich schoolboy racism 🔹 A Reform councillor: he'd "quite happily" do "Sunday morning Rose Garden executions" on grooming gangs. 🔹 A Reform activist: wants migrants in "concentration camps" A few bad apples? Gawain Towler was racist EVERY SINGLE DAY at school, yet Farage put him on the board of Reform.

An important thing to remember regarding the ITV exposé: What we’ve seen, though horrific, probably isn’t even the worst. They won’t release the money shot before it’s aired. It is very likely that they have worse. Though I like the drip feed approach, very damaging.
