The rise of the far right

[theclaud]

Ok. Feel free. I was just questioning, with another poster, if a such a stereotypical working class ever existed.

when certain politicians invoke a mythical working-class voter (or an idea such as the 'Red Wall') they are not describing an objective reality

If you say so

Credit where it's due.

Iain Duncan Smith just used the phrase 'person of colour'. Will @shep be able to bear casting a vote for these exemplars of the Tofu-eating Wokerati?

Gonna be a tough one, done it in the past with the local though.

I'm pretty confident there exists a market for candles with the scent of Peterson's genitals. Especially if cast from life.

If you used the large hadron collider to smash together Elon Musk and Kanye West, in the presence of Russell Brand, you might end up with something resembling Jordan Peterson.

Which reminds me - I just cast my votes for the National Trust AGM.

Maybe it applies to the left too but thr far right motto seems to be 'hang first, don't even bother to ask questions later'.


Or is that chess?

Talking of chess.

When the Tories under Sunak are described as a 'centre left party' we're in deep doo-doo...

Will Farage really rise as the Phoenix of the far right for the next GE?


But then again, it seems the Tories themselves can't agree what kind of a party they are....

What a mess....

Cruddas was made a Lord by Johnson, against the express wishes of the House of Lords commissioners who deemed him unsuitable.

In short, he’s a complete arse and I enjoy seeing him rip the Tory party to pieces.

For me, there's two worrying things that stand out in the Observer poll today

1. The problem brexiters find with brexit is not that it was a stupid idea, the problem is that it wasn't done properly, so they'll vote for Farage to come and fix it

2. Despite everything else that's happening, the biggest problem facing the UK is immigration

Am waiting to hear what the concensus on Brexitdoneproperly actually is? Everyone seems to think it means different things apart from one overriding issue...and that's immigration. That's the very beating heart of the Brexiteer.
