Nigel Farage’s Terrorist Sympathisers

Riding high in the opinion polls ahead of the European Parliament elections on the 23rd of this month, the Brexit Party, latest self-promotion vehicle of Nigel “Thirsty” Farage, has been given sympathetic, even fawning, coverage by our free and fearless press. But even those who scrabble around the dunghill that is Grubstreet have now noticed that the latest incarnation of the Farage fringe is playing host to some less than savoury characters.As Zelo Street pointed out recently, the Brexit Party is the new Nasty Party. And it has a problem not merely with policy on Ireland, and the Irish border problem, but the attitude of some of its candidates to terrorism. This puts Farage in one of those Very Difficult Positions: Mr Thirsty has made bashing Jeremy Corbyn over his connections to Republican politicians in Northern Ireland a staple part of his act.

In Defence Of Jess Phillips

Labour MP Jess Phillips is not universally admired within her own party. She frequently takes issue with the party leadership, and is free of restraint in doing so. But she does not deserve the frankly creepy attention being paid to her by Carl Benjamin, who styles himself Sargon of Akkad, who has been selected by Adolf von Batten’s New Model UKIP to be second on the party list for South West England at the upcoming European elections.
Benjamin, an exceptionally unpleasant creep of no known principle, has decreed that making “rape jokes” - that phrase is in quote marks as there are some subjects about which one does not make jokes - is fine.

Tommy Robinson - ANOTHER NO SHOW


The campaign by Stephen Yaxley Lennon, who styles himself Tommy Robinson, to become an independent member of the European Parliament continues to develop not necessarily to his advantage. Yesterday, The Great Man had a day off, and is believed to have gone to see Luton Town play in the afternoon. But today he was supposed to be back on the campaign trail. The problem for him was that he wasn’t.
