There’s only ‘mounting public anger & despair’ because the right wing media trash have manufactured outrage about immigrants. People are more than willing to believe that they pose some kind of existential threat to ‘traditional British values’.
-
So on the one hand the Daily Mail is spaffing itself over Nigel Farage and his back of a cigar packet policy, who is regularly pictured holding a pint and smoking a cigar
But how dare Angela Rayner smoke a vape screams the ex wife of a Tory minister
-
That's the saying
That's the one 👌🏼
-
Farage is a racist nobody but is given power by those too stupid or gullible to believe him. As for the Daily Fail there are no words.
-
The media ought to remember that we don't have a President. Farage cannot be elected PM by opinion poll or popular acclaim. In a GE, #ReformUK have to put up 600+ candidates. Past form suggests it'll be a parade of pub bores, and dodgy "businessmen", who quit when they realise it involves work.
-
They are gathering again and not just the ridiculous Right-wing rags this time. The media, including the BBC, has been taken over by the same rich bastards who want to divert attention from the real problem of inequality by appointing a scapegoat. Now it is boat people. Then it was Jews.
-
i am afraid the Mail remember it all too clearly, and chaff at having to change sides
-
Just seen a Labour minister on ITV Good Morning...IT'S PATHETIC. Right now, Labour needs to come out swinging. Do they still believe they can convince these sh!te-hawks to support them? Why the f@ck aren't they pushing the 'why are you supporting a person who would give money to the Taliban?!' line.

Always a reliable commentator

I reread that blackshirts article this morning after seeing today’s DM. It could have been written today, displeasure at the old style of politics, complaining about the majority achieved in the last election, cheering growing membership, the want to emulate strong leaders of other countries etc
-
I think a lot of these malefactors remember the past (or misremember) and want to repeat it.
-
These newspapers are giving Farage wings. Disgusting.
-
-
There are those who wilfully ignore the past because they want to repeat it.
-
Sarah vine on angela raynor, she has gone on a well-earned holiday you twisted sad bitter old biddy.
-
Thanks for that!! I feel a rather large tantrum coming on.
-
Has the Daily Mail only just noticed the existence of Farage?
-
.... to repeat it years later on BBC4?
-
I’m a smug tin eared liberal driving Britain into the ground. Pleased to make your acquaintance.
-
Human rights apply to everyone, even the odious Nigel Farage. He may not look human, but honestly, he is.
-
Ugh. Sarah Vile again🙄 It says “here’s a lady who reached the upper echelons of British politics from nowhere, without connections or university degree enjoying a paddle on a day off”.
-
To be fair to all the Viscounts Rothermere and their Daily Mail, they’ve been consistent in their cheerleading for the Far Right & fascism for almost a century
“Hurrah for the Faragzis” 🟥⚡️⚡️⬛️
🏴🇪🇺
-
The thing is Mail does remember the past and it still fucking loves it. NEVER STOPPED LOVING IT. NEVER!!!
-
Wouldn't use the daily fail to pick up dog shit, wouldn't want to embarrass the poor dog!
-
The last time the Daily Mail had this headline they were talking about Hitler right?! 🤔🤔🤔
-
Based on Farage’s proposals, UK would have sent Jews escaping Hitler back to Hitler.
-
It's time we put conservatives on notice.
-
What this same toilet paper said about, Thatcher, Cameron, Johnson and Truss. Nothing to see here.
-
The Daily Heil never changes! It's readers just get older & fewer!!
-
Talking of history repeating itself
"The Daily Mail, like the Blackshirts, appeal to people unaccustomed to thinking"
From The Spectator in 1934, under different management at the time

The Daily Mail are so desperate for readers of their dying paper they'll do anything to get attention. So it is with nasty yeast infections....they get worse before they finally die off, leaving the host recovering from the poisoning.
-
Can’t help but notice sarah Vine is being vile about Angela Rayner on holiday for no good reason whatsoever. She really is archetypal DM scum.
-
This fukin rag makes me sick ! How can people possibly buy into this absurd nonsense. FukFarage
-
-
Perhaps the Refukkers should rename themselves as the National Affront?
-
There isnt a socialist in power. Sarah vine couldn't distinguish a socialist from a nazi she's thick as fuck. Throwing in words to bait the illiterate infuriates me no end.
-
Like the S*n and their Hillsborough slurs, never let these scum forget
-
Or - in the case of the Daily Heil - Some who can remember the past are hoping to repeat it.
-
Not the socialists whipping up anti-immigration frenzy for political gain.
-
And some people think it's a great history and are actively working to recreate it.
None of what's happening today is because these people don't know history.
It's happening because they got the wrong lessons from history. But they definitely know their history.

With the BBC and most of the press cheer leading for faridge, with not scrutiny, whilst at the same time focusing on stupid non stories about Labour MP’s, the future’s bleak
-
It should say "Arsonist now sells fire insurance"
-
Can someone ask Lord Rothmere how this is affecting him in Monaco?
-
Those journalists should hang their heads in shame…..
-
“Those who can remember the past are doomed to watch those who cannot remember the past repeat it”.
-
What? Rayner not allowed a holiday now?
-
In the case of the Mail it's more like fond memories of the days when it could say "Hurrah for the Blackshirts"
-
😢
-
Hey! The Daily Mail has a long and proud tradition of backing fascist movements in the UK! Don't insult them by suggesting they are doing this out of ignorance.
-
🤢🤮this French-dwelling aristocrat still harping on the family’s love of Nazis
-
That front page is straight up high treason. No other word for it.
-
Europe and UK, sane freedom loving Americans are begging you to bury this Farange clown. Dispose of him in any way shape or form suitable. An exile to Moscow perhaps? These soft-jawed autocracy viruses are spreading across the world and if the world doesn’t vaccinate against it, we are doomed.
-
Oh, they know their past. They’re not remotely troubled by it & are looking forward to the next chapter. The idea that the masses should not have to fight for food money & shelter, not something they ever got comfortable with. Stripping away rights & H&S for workers will follow attacks on refugees
-
So, no mention of the cost of energy increasing this winter, which is obviously caused by desperate people in boats.
-
I could scream with frustration, I really could. All over FB I just see people championing Farage, ignoring he’s a con man who will harm us as a nation and as citizens with his desire to tamper with human rights.
-
@dailymail.co.uk is an insidious anti-British paper that has peddled its lies for 80 years.
It is also one of the most hypocritical, considering its support of a Tory government that ruined the country over a 14-year period.
-
'Finally' is about right. If Reform are the next government, it will be the end of the UK as a civilised nation.
-
They cannot even remember their own history, it seems...
-
Read by stupid people who think they are smart
-
In other news, the Daily Mail is to rebrand as Der Stürmer.
-
It is terrifying.
-
The usual disgraceful headlines from the usual suspects. Wait for it... the anti-Irish racism that is always simmering under the surface in 3... 2...
-
Sarah Vile once again completely ignoring the fact that this country was already in its knees thanks to 14 years of Tory grifting. Look over here at a socialist having a holiday. 🤦♀️🤦♀️
-
Those who can’t remember their last great hope …
-
It is time we faced the sad truth. The Fail is too old and can no longer look after itself. We need a vet.
-
Actually Rothermere withdrew support for the Blackshirts in 1936, finding their violence distasteful. But he remained a huge fan of Adolf Hitler and Mussolini right up until the start of the war.
Meanwhile and indeed well into 1940 his papers led the campaign against Jews & others fleeing Europe.
-
-
‘Finally a politician who gets our inherent racism, prejudice and bigotry’ is not the headline the Daily Fail thinks it is.
-
"Nigel Farage promises" ... and the idiot masses believe him. Truly terrifyng.
-
And as in the 30s Rothermere are in the vanguard.
Vile people
