Last ...You think Farage is bad? (And he is, very).<br /><br />Last night's Channel 4 <i>Dispatches</i>, fronted by aptly named Buerk, claimed the way to restore fair balance in the British economy is to "target visa" immigrants to locations outside London. <br /><br />The only difference between Farage and the dick head meff responsible for that pile of steaming turds is the shape and smell of the turds.<br /><br />But that's our extreme right wing media and their government for you.<br /><br />Now it seems "control of our borders" is limited to the M25. You couldn't make up this shit.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433144336299288135.post-79067656223257663032017-10-31T14:05:52.066+00:002017-10-31T14:05:52.066+00:00Yep, tend to agree with the comment above here. No...Yep, tend to agree with the comment above here. Not sure what point Farage was trying to make as I don't have the context but many moderate, reasonable voices have pointed out that the USA has often been less than even-handed in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict because of the well-funded and well-organised pro-Israel lobby in the US. Not all Jews support that lobby of course, but it does exist.<br /><br />Israel is a strange one for the right - obviously traditionally Jews were different so they didn't like them, but these days you'll see Israeli flags at EDL demos - presumably because Netanyahu's government does a nice line in Muslim-bashing, which pleases them. Given that Netanyahu is one of Trump's few friends on the international stage, it's not unreasonable to suspect Farage agrees.Breakfastnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433144336299288135.post-78408265809912500972017-10-31T13:42:25.253+00:002017-10-31T13:42:25.253+00:00Farage is a loathsome embarrassment to this countr...Farage is a loathsome embarrassment to this country. If he could be bothered to do the theory he’d probably be a fascist. He has a history as an anti-semite and very probably still is one. He is an opportunistic self-server who will say anything if it is to his advantage.<br />However, if he says that in the UK we drive on the left he is stating a fact, even if his motivation for saying it might be a desire to demonstrate British exceptionalism, our way is best, tradition, the buccaneering spirit of past ministers of transport or some other bollocks. To deny that we drive on the left just because Farage has claimed we do would make no sense.<br />To deny that there are strong national lobbies in the US is foolish. To deny that one of them is a pro-Israel lobby would be foolish. To deny that it is well-funded is foolish. To deny that it is influential is foolish. <br />Farage lies for sure, but there’s no point attacking his occasional facts for being facts. It what he tries to do with those facts that deserves our attention. Otherwise you end up trying to convince a Brexit voter concerned about immigration that there in fact has not been any immigration, after which he’s unlikely to listen to your arguments about the benefits or necessity of immigration. Isn’t that type of thing partly what got us where we are now?<br />Nigel's Mumnoreply@blogger.com
