AIBU to share this Reform exposé from C4?

Free speech doesn't mean you can say whatever you like, whenever you like and to whoever you like.

And my political affiliations are not your concern.

‘Being duplicitous” 😂 Lying is such a bad look.

@MrsBennetsPoorNervesAreBack But as a group, I would absolutely find a bunch of Reform supporters far more frightening than a bunch of asylum seekers.

So how would you know they were Reform supporters if you met them in the street ?

No free speech then.

What are your ties to Reform? Are you a member?

Or she can exercise it at a Party Political Conference - as had been a longstanding tradition throughout the history of British democracy.

I already have one. And the only reason I even know about it is all the Reform voters 'fuming' about it.
I can say with honesty, that I've barely seen the people themselves. Which I suppose is understandable given they have more reason to fear the aggressive locals we see hurling missiles at windows, committing arson and rioting in the streets than we do to fear them, given we outnumber then many times over.
If they are housed in more affluent areas it may actually be a good thing.
These areas tend to have lower levels of bin slingers than those of us in poorer areas tend to have amongst us, so there may be fewer instances of violent disorder.
These areas also tend to have better facilities with less pre existing strain on them than deprived areas, so have greater capacity to cope with additional demand.
I'm not particularly pro immigration BTW. I'm in favour of controls. I just don't feel the need to obsess about it as though it's the only issue that needs fixing.

What would be the point of that?,

Plenty of asylum seekers near me too. Never had any problems.

My dd has volunteered with asylum seekers locally where we live and she is currently volunteering with them where she is at uni. She has never encountered anyone who was anything but polite and respectful towards her. And she has never felt threatened by them in any way, despite being a young attractive woman.

There will be asylum seekers who behave inappropriately and/or commit crimes. Just as there are home grown British people who do likewise.

But as a group, I would absolutely find a bunch of Reform supporters far more frightening than a bunch of asylum seekers.

If she bought the ticket intending to disrupt proceedings she is being duplicitous and will be thrown out.

Even if she bought a ticket?

She can exercise that right in the carpark, not in a private ticketed event

Scary times

Well, we’ll have to agree to disagree on that one. In my opinion, the way he was sneering and laughing from the stage as a peaceful protestor was mauled by angry mob showed a disrespect for our democratic norms and was not befitting behaviour from a man with ambitions to be Prime Minister.

And I am confident many centre right voters who might’ve been thinking about holding their nose and voting Reform feel the same. Nigel Farage has looked increasingly shady over the past weeks and months - hence his plummeting in all the polls on personal popularity. This conference has made him look desperate and rattled as well.

I suspect it's an imaginary friend of Nigel's.

I live near a hotel and I think we have some HMO's as well, is it ok with you for me to comment?

In the video I saw it looked a lot like the male holding the stick hit her with it right at the beginning. Did anyone else see that the same way?

Well I do hope all the asylum seeker supporters get their wishes come true and a HMO of Somalis or Eritreans opens nearby.

What was it Burnham said?
‘An illegal immigrant in every postcode’ or something similar.

No, he could see it just fine and even commented on it.

Pretty sure he was too far away to see anything in detail.

I don’t know why anyone would take Farage’s claim about KC advice seriously. He lies. There was no police advice to delay the conference yesterday, just as there wasn’t any police advice telling him not to attending the Clacton results. It’s bullshit.

Farage was laughing at the assualt

Yes I wondered about that. Like people wanted chapter and verse from Angela Rayner.
Isn't there a public interest angle?
What JP is putting their name to advice he has done nothing wrong and is all ' pub talk' ?

Nigel Farage also acted appropriately.
As per a PP, people have been assaulted at the Labour conference for disrupting it.

It borders on sociopathic.

What I find most bizarre about Reform supporters is their ability to be calm and measured about any and all wrongdoing committed by the party and its representatives, while simultaneously flying off the deep end at everything else.

Literal video evidence of Farage being corrupt: “Well, let’s just wait until we have all the evidence before we make a judgement.”

A sniff of wrongdoing by Labour or the Greens = "This is a national disgrace! They should resign immediately and be locked up forever!"

One of their own having a conviction for VAWG = “He was young, the victim was lying about what happened , everyone deserves a second chance.”

A hint that a migrant might have committed a crime = "Deport them all! Take to the streets! Burn them out!"

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, the hypocrisy of the right knows no bounds.
