    Let's remember that Hitler started off the same way as Farage. Getting thugs to scare minorities basically. Gradually you start to move the goalposts & you end up with Auschwitz.

    There maybe a large Labour majority in Parliament, but public opinion is easily mobilised on social media. These times are very worrying. I hope most of the younger generation can see through this. Our only hope.

    I think your analogy is correct. Countries sleepwalk into nastiness because its not spotted early enough. Its a slow drip feed and people don't notice till its too late. Labour (and Greens, SNP and Lib Dems) should be really vocal here.

    Throughout history, most if not all dictators have had their personal militia. Every fascist needs an iron fist.

    Thomas? Bob? Actually I did know someone called John Thomas once. His parents just didn't think.

    Funnily enough Tommy Moran was a Fascist and friend of Moseley and took part in the Battle of Cable Street where the Fash got a good deserved kicking.

    It goes without saying. It is public opinion that is the key point though, not just force in most cases. Not true of some dictators, like Stalin, who just got the the top of the machine. Whipping up hatred from fairly uneducated younger & elderly people is not that difficult. They have gripes & want a victim. Boat people & muslims is perfect for them They are not gonna think too much about the facts, just go & bang the drum for the far right, for which Farage & Yaxley-Lemon are at the forefront.

    Reminds me of "the Ballad of Johnny Longstaff" by the Young Un's. A great listen.

    I use the ability to get round the swear filters on here sparingly and reserve it for when it's appropriate.

    Nigel Farage is an irredeemable cunt.

    The Fash used to dish it out disgracefully as well, in Wimbledon's crazy gang days.

    This in buckets.
    Time to absolutely smash the rioters before it’s too late.
    Hopefully it does not rear its ugly head here in Scotland, but I’m not convinced we will escape the mayhem.
    It’s absolutely disgusting and I’m worried for all our futures because I doubt Starmer is man enough to stand up to them.

    You can already see the next narrative when we start sending these things to prison for their crimes while releasing several thousand prisoners early... Some of whom are no doubt from minorities
