If only the British media held Nigel Farage to the same standards as they do Angela Rayner…

Absolutely. Even if their list contains names of people who have been or are admired it needs to be seen.

Starmer ravages Farage: "The honourable member for Clacton is not here... he's flown to America to badmouth and talkdown our country. And worse than that... he's gone there to lobby the Americans to impose sanctions. You cannot get more unpatriotic than that. It's a disgrace."

I think you exaggerate a bit there but as I absented myself from toxic Twitter I can’t be sure. He is not as bad as Reform.

From BBC - he is a “supporter of flags”. But he warns that they could be "devalued and belittled” if used for divisive means.

SharonO @sharonodysseos.bsky.social · 01/09/2025

No idea why but if you actually read the script of the interview it’s nowhere near as “damning” as people are trying to make out. He is walking a very fine line with every media outlet and certain loud mouthed critics waiting to pounce. Give the guy a chance !

Fair enough but I am a slow and steady wins the race person. Not saying there haven’t been missteps- there have - but isn’t well thought through governance better than the slapstick nonsense of the 14 years prior to Labour?

Anyway I am arranging a “peaceful” demonstration outside the local second hand car dealers on Saturday, free Stella Lager bring your England flags .. we only have legitimate concerns after all.

He’s also a bit concerned about pink and orange cars .. so I asked my neighbour and he said I was a bit crazy .. he reckons all cars are made the same and the colour of their metal coating is irrelevant. But I think he’s just woke !

I checked with my local Reform MP and he said it was true ! Also he said all red cars are IMPORTED and come over on boats !

SharonO @sharonodysseos.bsky.social · 01/09/2025

Someone told me red cars are more likely to explode ! This is terrible news, I have someone with a red car living near me. So dangerous think of the women and children. I checked with the Society of Motor Manufacturers and they said it was nonsense, but what do they know ? Had enough of experts !1

Can anyone point me to the media story about the largest ever warship export deal ever agreed by the UK that was announced this morning? It’s worth £10bn. It will protect 4000 jobs, provide growth for up to 400 small businesses. Where is our bloody media?

Etched into memory. Being in Cyprus and two hours ahead of UK heard on BFBS radio at 5am UK time. At that time she was still believed to be alive then very shortly after the death was announced. Cried heavily for her as it seemed she was finally getting the life she wanted.

SharonO @sharonodysseos.bsky.social · 31/08/2025

The only way to counter such strong basic feelings is to make people feel secure, safe, wanted. Is this what the RW are doing by promising that only they can protect the village ? Once such a primitive instinct is woken up how can it be put back to sleep? What other base instincts can be weaponised?

010

SharonO @sharonodysseos.bsky.social · 31/08/2025

The fear of “others” is of course a base and primitive reaction that had it place when humans lived in a less civilized society. After all is was the “others” who would raid your village, steal your food, rape your women. And that type of base instinct is impossible to fight with facts. 1/2

None directly but it seems clear that the system—rather than individual journalists -foster an environment where outrageous or polarizing figures like Farage thrive because they serve the algorithm and gain the “clicks”

SharonO @sharonodysseos.bsky.social · 29/08/2025

Competent doing a lot of heavy lifting there. They just know that Farage is marmite and adding his face and name to anything gets a reaction (like this) and that’s all that matters to most journalists these days ..

SharonO @sharonodysseos.bsky.social · 29/08/2025

It’s a vicious circle really isn’t it ? A poll shows some support for Reform resulting in publicity resulting in another poll etc etc etc. Farage will NEVER be PM he and his limited company don’t have it in them !

The fact that Reform were trying to run a person who had been dead for six months as their Croydon Mayoral candidate is proof if it were needed that they are not a serious party. It demonstrates abject incompetence and no vetting as well as utter contempt for the electorate.

SharonO @sharonodysseos.bsky.social · 29/08/2025

Can’t quite make this out but frankly any opinion polls that show any real strength of support for Reform can just get in the bin ! There are years before election for them to show their true colours and it sure ain’t light turquoise!
