😂 @JeremyClarkson has reduced Farage’s latest grand solution to one sentence:
“You can tell ‘send in the navy’ Nigel has never driven a boat.”
🤣 Jeremy Clarkson on Farage’s grandly named “Operation Fortress”:
“While he looks like a weekend sailor, what with the blazer and the cords and so on, there’s no evidence to suggest Nige has ever driven a boat.”
And then the serious bit:
“It is of course politically colourful to conjure up the image of sleek British warships defending the realm. This sort of thing appeals to the Tommy Robinsonites.”
That’s Farage politics nailed.
Give a complicated problem a Nelsonian name, wrap it in a Union Jack and sell the image before anyone asks whether the policy could actually work.
But there’s a serious point underneath the comedy.
In 2016 Farage told us leaving the EU was the answer to immigration. We left. Free movement ended. Westminster took control.
Now that hasn’t produced the promised result, there’s another three-word solution: send in the Navy.
Politics is easy when you never have to make your slogans work in the real world. Brexit should have taught us that by now.

Establishment types hate DEI since it “undermines meritocracy”. They’re less worried about the stitchup that benefits them. Kids from rich backgrounds dominate law, City, journalism (nepotism is rife). It’s an anti-meritocracy with a smug grin on its face

This is a Republican Congresswoman.
If she spoke like this about Jewish Americans, she would right be regarded as a loud-and-proud Nazi.
Islamophobia is spiralling out of control in the US.
Why can't you post without insults Mike? As for lanyards - it is lazy language - nurses wear lanyards, doctors, teachers, hospice staff do, many of the world's great companies have a lanyard policy (eg pharma, defence, AI, tech - have you been to Google? To Meta? ) and I think you will find many of our security services do. Out there, in the wide world, epithets like 'lanyard class' - meant as insults - just seem bizarre.

No matter how much Republicans try to cheat.
We’re going to lower costs, deliver affordable healthcare, and hold the crooks accountable.
I will never vote for a Republican again.
Todd Blanche released nude photos of teenage sexual trafficking and assault victims, and Republicans just voted to make this creep the head cop of America.
How can anyone ever vote Republican again?
Confirmation of what had previously been discussed, Farage resigned to force a by-election in Clacton because he believed it would end the Parliamentary investigation into his corruption.
Big mistake.
