To think Nigel Farage should be locked up?

He was inciting violence with his “address to the nation” speech, calling for rage.

Meanwhile, he doesn’t care when women are actually murdered by the police

Surely enough is enough and they need to take action?

Nigel Farage MP (@Nigel_Farage) on X

We must not allow the tragic murder of a young woman turn into attacks on men and attacks on the police.

The right side of history. Bloody hell the arrogance is unreal. I see this tone in the ME conflict. Sorry to break it to you but your being on the right side of history is purely subjective.

As for the poster who seems to have taken an advanced interest in me, heaven forbid I respond to posts. Fuck me, it gets worse!

Bonkers reply. Not arrogance just fact. Siding with right wing fascists has never ended well. Maybe try reading a history book or two.

Are you harassing me? I've already had one unsolicited PM from somebody who didn't get an answer from me on their repetive posts to me.

Take it as a compliment. She finds your posts inspiring 😁

A different example and in another country, certainly. I was responding to a post, in the quote history:

Whammyammy · Today 13:34
Not that I agree with violent protests, but I can understand why these people have taken to protesting.
We as a nation are not listened to by our government, people are fed up with 2 tier policing, the way in which the police treated this young man in his final minutes.
What else are these, beer swigging, bin lighting...' people to do to get heard? What they have done has made headlines in global media and showed the world we operate a 2 tier justice system with limited free speech

However, your original post and reply to me talked about football - high emotions after winning. The recent riots in Paris were really not about football at all.

They got one word wrong.

And that word makes a difference to what he meant. Cold rage" (also known as cold anger) is a highly controlled, suppressed form of intense fury.Unlike classic "hot anger"—which is chaotic, explosive, and marked by immediate outbursts like yelling or slamming doors—cold rage is quiet, calculated, and deeply internalised. It represents a state where intense resentment or malice is stripped of explosive emotion, leaving the individual eerily calm on the surface while remaining fiercely focused beneath it.

So prison time for telling people to suppress their anger? Ok then

Oh change the bloody record. The uneducated claptrap has been done to death.

Some of the most educated and intelligent people I know are not afraid to say that they voted Reform in the last local elections. The reason for that Is that the two main parties have let the country down so badly in the past 16 years that it’s a protest vote to shake the country up. They are all six of them past traditional Tory or Labour voters.

Has Farage apologised for this yet?

What she actually said.."I don’t want to hear about Black Lives Matter. I don’t want to hear about White Lives Matter. Everyone matters. Henry Nowak matters."

Reform UK (@reformparty_uk) on X

Kemi Badenoch, just like Starmer, doesn’t care. Only Reform UK will openly say that white lives matter too.

I'm no Badenoch fan, but that Reform attack ad is a shameful attempt at twisting her words through selective quoting that is very clearly designed to be deliberately misleading. That kind of misrepresentation should not be allowed.

You called me a liar when I said that Starmer didn't know what a woman was and that he only changed his mind after the Supreme Court Hearing.

At least his mate David Lammy is on the ball....men can take hormones to grow a cervix 🤣🤣

Oh yes they are tying themselves in knots having to apologise to Nigel. I wonder if they had their fingers crossed behind their backs 🤣🤣

Good point

It wasn't for that police officer to brutally execute him whatever he'd done in the past. Did the police officer even know his record? We can't be excusing brutality.

The BBC jump from crisis to crisis. School boy errors abound and still never learn from it, much like Starmer.

It was pretty awful. Worth noting that the officer was not convicted of intentional murder (US terminology is odd), ie not an execution.

But I’m not here to defend either man. A pretty brutal police offer and a pretty brutal career criminal.

What I thought was tragic and absurd was the wanton destruction that followed with the nodding along of our political class. Somewhere between 19-25 people died in the protests in the week following, many neighbourhood (mostly poor ones) trashed and businesses destroyed, economic harm of $1bn-2bn. In Minneapolis alone in the year that followed the de-policing, murders doubled.

Now maybe this kind of mayhem happens sometimes.

But we had UK leaders kneeling in honour of this movement. wtf.

When there is any kind of race-related crime or outrage we get a preemptive lecture from our leaders about how bad elements are stirring up division and we should behave ourselves. Yet there they all were joining in when it was fashionable. It was shameful.

I’d be disgusted if our leaders cheerled and encouraged a white racial criminal backlash in this country. But this was a black one and American, so all fun and games.

Yes, Farage was obviously very marginalised in the House of Commons. Kemi has asked for calm and Keir has said "Henry deserves a legacy that goes beyond this awful tragedy, and I am committed to making that happen,"

Committed to making it happen? Farcical quote when he's full of hot air and zero substance.
