The RNLI rescued Luftwaffe pilots in WW2 because the organisation is there to 'save life at sea' - it's something to be immensely proud of.

But as I've said many times before Farage and Co don't seem to have pride in Britain and its institutions beyond flags and crap Enoch Powell said 60 years ago.
This should be the moment people finally realise that Farage has turned them into fascists.
If you’re choosing this dangerous inhumanity over the rescue work of the RNLI, you’ve lost your minds to racism and hatred.

'Facism thrives when you let it.'

Portsmouth RNLI temporarily suspended services after volunteers received abuse following an anti-migration protest.

@mrjamesob.bsky.social says it's one of the most 'disgusting' stories he's heard throughout his career.

Just look at the glee on Nigel Farage’s face as he watches a Piddington resident cry about the overt racism she, her Caribbean heritage husband, and their two children have felt in the village during the referendum.

Time and again he’s showing us exactly who he is.

Anyone thinking that Piddington is a lovely little village story and what japes, needs to watch this.
Very nice to hear a sane voice from Piddington. Serious respect to this woman, who is apparently already being othered by more bigoted villagers.

I agree that Nige needs better state protection. Let's go all out on that, witness protection level: a new name; a secret location, ideally abroad; daylight curfew; no online presence. That ought to be the right level of safe, for him and us

I have spent weeks shadowing the RNLI and I can tell you, they do it out of nothing more than compassion.

Wrote about the heroes I've met over the years in this free-to-read post.

Wake up people!
Opinion | The list of things Nigel Farage will do for money is long, unedifying and, in the week that we learned of £72m being donated to his party by a couple of cryptocurrency billionaires, surely worth revisiting

Dan Thomas, the leader of Reform in Wales, has stepped down after being arrested for assault and coercive behaviour. This is very much in the noble tradition of leaders started by his predecessor, Nathan Gill, who had to step down as he couldn't do the job from prison.

I have my own criticism but the one thing Labour’s getting right is the NHS, waiting lists down, more appointments, better pay, no strikes.

Farage would sell the NHS.

He’s not a man of the people, he’s a privately educated city boy who laughed as the economy tanked after Brexit.

He is a traitor.

Any claims that Reform is a party for “ordinary people” are laughable when two billionaires have donated £72 million to the party within 24 hours - on top of the £33 million they had previously given.

Let’s call it what it is: elites looking to expand their wealth and power. [1/2]

“I have never seen a party with such a gap between those who own the party - the two crypto kings - and the people who vote for them.”


Can Reform really claim to be the anti-establishment party of the “little person” when its funding comes from just two people?
