And now the investigation into the £5 million secretly-gifted by an ‘economic migrant’ recommences. If nothing else has been achieved with this daft by-election, the idea that Farage is some sort of master strategist has been put to bed. It’s easy to look good when you’re getting free passes galore.

All the candidates sharing a stage while the result is announced, including joke candidates, is a charming UK tradition. Incumbent PMs do it in good humor. And there's a real point about pluralism and egalitarianism to it. What a petulant little thin-skinned dork Farage is to skip and trash it.

A hugely embarrassing win for Farage in the Clacton by-election. Reform had been touting a 79% victory. Instead he got 63% against Count Binface who pulled in nearly 27%. Petulantly Farage didn’t turn up for the count to give a speech. The investigation into his finances begins again.

Really glad @polphilpod.bsky.social is making this argument at length at @liberalcurrents.com The fascists really do believe what they say. That’s part of what makes them so dangerous. www.liberalcurrents.com/fascists-rea...
Imagine you think-as Elon Musk clearly does-that all of human civilization is dependent on maintaining pure-blooded white people as a significant portion of the world's population, and keeping them in charge of, and the overwhelming majority within, its most powerful states. What political agenda would follow from that?
Well, if that were true, then a demographic purge of those states would be desirable. Ethnic cleansing of that scale
is not possible with our existing political systems, so those systems would need to be done away with.

There remains a conspiracy theory about how Trump would root out deep state sex trafficking. Of course, that did not exist. But it turns out you need a functioning administrative state to investigate and prosecute these crimes. Instead, the state is degraded, redirected to attack Trump's enemies.

So Trump and the White House lied about which plane Trump was on flying out of Turkey, setting up journalists who thought they were on the same plane as the president to possibly be the target of an Iranian attack while he secretly departed on a different one. Words fail.
