Reposting yourself is such bad form, but efficient, I guess, if you are paid for clicks. The basic premise of your post is of course correct. The genuine far right will support the party whose policies comes closest to reflecting their objectives, and Restore’s policy of expelling those who do not contribute or integrate, or who commit crime, fits that bill. But it is disingenuous to insinuate that Lowe needs these few votes or that his refusal to engage on the topic implies some form of implicit acceptance of those extreme views. By referring you to Restore’s policy documents he is showing you he does not agree. His refusal to get drawn into the MSM’s distorting newsround shows consistency and integrity and sets him apart from other politicians
@SamCKx@PeterSweden7 Stupid comment. Did you skip over “things like”? There are plenty of other examples of the state’s desire to control the narrative, including a myriad during covid. All the OP was doing was highlighting this attitude with a “front of mind” example
It a fair tactic, yes. If you are convinced that the only reason MSM are talking to you is to try for a gotcha moment then it makes sense not to give them that opportunity. And there’s plenty to suggest that is indeed the collective MSM mindset, not least the despicable absence of any reporting whatsoever on the Restore rape gang report
@Queenshandbag1 Probably the worst of the veritable army of Reform pseudobots spreading absolute manure against Restore in the hope that some of it sticks. It won’t!
@unherd@felixpope_ While I get that Unherd will platform all sides in a debate I’m surprised to see blatant incendiary headlining like this. Please do better!
@WolfgangRichtEU Brussels beaurocrat bureaucrat and DEI councillor criticised she greatest creative talent in the world ever. It will be instructive to see who listens!
@doveyymargeauxx You’re conflating the real issue (the style, personality and policies of the leaders) with a non-issue (the inevitable initial concentration of control in the person setting up a new corporate entity)
@ThePosieParker I’ve given the thumbs up to pretty well every one of your posts until now. You are pretty sure footed generally. But you are wrong on this. Burnham is an irrelevance. The important thing is to recognise that Farage is now part of the Uniparty and Lowe is the only hope
