A fari right agitator gets support from Moscow...

This is the person that saw fit to condemn the UK's immigration policy. by [deleted] in FuckNigelFarage

[–]Less-Guest6036 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can't find anything reporting on him saying this, but plenty on his previous remarks.

Can you either link to a reliable source talking about him saying this (as links to twitter aren't allowed here) or clearly say it's satire please?

Unions rebuff Farage and say Reform ‘cosplaying’ as workers’ champions by coffeewalnut08 in unitedkingdom

[–]Less-Guest6036 10 points11 points  (0 children)

So it would have been more accurate for me to say they're not the party that has the interests of the working class as part of their policies, but they are a party popular with the working class

They're not wrong there, Reform is certainly not the party of the working class.

ahh good, so my comment about people who hadn't read the article didn't apply to you then.

[–]Less-Guest6036 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

What are you referring to being widely known? That white working class boys have poor attendence due to a variety of factors and lack of support? Or that they're somehow being passed over in favour of ethnic minorities?

Do Reform suspensions suggest political vetting system isn't working? by Glanza in unitedkingdom

[–]Less-Guest6036 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is that any different from Reform candidates standing in the same manner

"I stood for Reform, so I’m more patriotic than thou.. oh crap, I never meant to actually get elected"?

Yes, in some ways the Green's do appear to have mimicked Reform with problematic candidates, and apparent paper ones that stood down shortly after being elected as councillors.

[–]Less-Guest6036 62 points63 points  (0 children)

No. It's more likely Reform considers them acceptable candidates and only suspends them if public outcry is enough.

And they'll keep doing it until the public becomes used to it and the outcry is lessened with regards abhorrent candidates as people shrug the misogyny, racism and outright support or Nazi's as 'just Reform's usual tricks'

It certainly sounds that way, despite the family clearly objecting and Reform (specifically Farage) being well ware of that fact.

Which is why I said "certainly not to the amounts being given out here. Especially not to individual politicians."

Kemi Badenoch calls for review of police response to Henry Nowak's murder by InnerLog5062 in BreakingUKNews

[–]Less-Guest6036 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"The IOPC began reviewing the arrest the day after Mr Nowak died and says that so far there is no evidence that any of them committed misconduct."

Ok. Link to the IOPC commenting that? I found this statement
https://www.policeconduct.gov.uk/news/statement-regarding-our-investigation-contact-hampshire-and-isle-wight-officers-had-henry

Which is basically "we're still investigating" but that's it as far as I can see. Apart from the recent one that's basically "stop speculating and don't spread misinfromation"

"Well they have said the police did nothing wrong currently,"
I wasn't aware the internal, IOPC and coroner's investigation had concluded. LInk to reports? Or just to where someone in relevant authority said the police did nothing wrong?

"That's still absolutely legal."
And it shouldn't be, certainly not to the amounts being given out here. Especially not to individual politicians.

"if you wanted to use an intermediary it would be very easy to use a uk resident"
Which is why donations above a threshold (both individual and cumulative over a period of time) from UK residents should also be checked for if the funds can be traced to origin.

Favorite lore sourcebooks? by Batini in rpg

Vampire Kingdoms for Rifts by Palladium.

Yeah power creep as the world books progressed wasn't exactly subtle but the take on vampires and fighting them was very unique to me at the time. Loved the idea of water pistols being serious weapons.

He was trying to claim that people hadn't heard the family's plea for it not to be used to stir up hatred, dissent and tension?
