Braverman's "performance" on #bbcqt last night was one of the most grotesque things I've seen @mrjamesob.bsky.social

Braverman is a vile, dishonest, ignorant, morally repugnant creature #bbcqt. Shame on the #bbc for platforming her. Complete contempt for the views of others.

I think, at best, I feel cautious optimism but we are all a little bit jaded too @mrjamesob.bsky.social. Best option; consult, negotiate in good faith and rejoin. De Gaulle learned the lessons of referendum the hard way.

"The one thing your viewers can know for sure is that we believe in controlling spending and reducing taxes, not increasing taxes," says Conservative Shadow Home Secretary Chris Philp, whose own government raised taxes to their highest level in more than 70 years, just two years ago.

Sure. Brexit meant we huffed out of our agreements on managing the flow of asylum seekers. The boats symbolise “taking back control” by going it alone. But it’s only a “crisis” because politicians and media choose to blame immigrants for their own failures. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

No amount of money can buy you popularity. For every person who likes Farage, there are 2 or 3 who really loathe him. The number against him might even go up, the richer he gets. He simply cannot make people like him. And we will not change our minds. We’ll do whatever we can to make him fail.

Piddington's independence ref is being presented as a quaint 'crumpets and muffins' comedy of plucky country folk. It's much darker and nastier than that and shows how deeply entrenched the bigoted 'fighting aged men on boats' narrative runs. Me for @noosphere.app www.noosphere.app/passport-to-...

Despite almost all of those 'fighting aged men' being Jews and political dissidents who had fled the Nazis under Defense Regulation 18B thousands were rounded up and put in camps - even that did not satisy the Mail (a paper which had supported Hitler in the 1930s) and they wanted more, more, more

Labour's leader in the Lords, Henry Snell, noted the Fascist intolerance of heckling - something we have seen again this week. He added that "If our British people were persuaded [by Fascism], then the uniform that would be appropriate for them would be not a black shirt but a strait jacket".
The modern Fascist considers himself entitled to maltreat anyone in an audience who shows distrust of Fascist omniscience by asking a question. Heckling is a very old and cherished liberty of English political life. … But these dismal Jew-baiters cannot be satisfied with what generations of Englishmen have found satisfactory.

90 years ago, Parliament responded to the rise of Oswald Mosley's Blackshirts by passing the Public Order Act, which banned political uniforms, private militias and the threat of force for political objects. The debates make very resonant reading today. Here's the Liberal Robert Bernays. (Short 🧵)
You cannot conduct a fair match when one side is playing with a ball and the other with bombs and, if democracy is to survive, it must be conducted according to definite and recognised rule. One of them is that no political party should resort to any weapon other than reason and argument. The introduction of private armies, as I see it, strikes at the root of democracy. I know it is contended that the Blackshirts are not armed and, therefore, are not an army, but I do not think that argument can be upheld. … Uniformed men in military formation suggest, and are meant to suggest, the idea of force. It is no argument to reply that at this or that demonstration no force is intended. It is an inescapable fact that a uniform in politics symbolises force, to be used either now or in the future.
