And ‘balanced’? Just the right amount of Nazi, not too much, not too little?

Why is ‘getting numbers down’ considered automatically virtuous? Because immigrants are a necessary evil at best?

And the last paragraph is, once again, "Nigel Farage is right" The complete and utter refutation of this racist narrative is required, but once again we won't see it because there's a broad political consensus in this country on the notion that everything is our fault

Exclusive: Do you remember the polling company Redfield and Wilton, which appeared from nowhere in early 2020, whose polls quickly appeared in lots of publications? The company’s director is a registered solicitor, prompting questions over where the polling expertise came from. Here’s the answer…

Yes, I did that for one grandmother

The time is now. The place is here.

I don't expect anyone to be interested in my quirky stuff. It's mine. It's of interest to me. I wouldn't want to foist it on my daughter, for example.

Bravo, that man. Thank you to all the people of Ukraine.

Pie instead of stew?

Feels as though Farage is on the ropes
