When you see base, unapologetic racism like this, you *never* have to go far into the timeline to find Nigel Farage. Funny that. twitter.com/SangitaMyska/s…

As the true depths of Donald Trump’s seditious depravity are finally confirmed, it’s amazing to remember how many U.K. pundits & politicians lionised & defended him. Most of them are simultaneously being proved catastrophically wrong about Brexit too. Don’t expect any apologies!

Millions of people were persuaded by xenophobic, stupid and/or dishonest public figures that they wanted Brexit, austerity & twelve years of Tory rule. Largely because it upset ‘Remainers’ & ‘Libs’. They have a long way to climb down but the process seems to have started at last.

Being too furiously stupid to understand how dangerous & damaging your furious stupidity has been is, I suppose, a blessing of sorts. twitter.com/NadineDorries/…

It’s hard to know what to say about this. But I can tell you that there’s absolutely no pleasure or sense of vindication in seeing the Telegraph admit that ‘Project Fear Was Right All Along’. Brexit’s senseless, entirely self-inflicted harms will hurt us all for years to come. twitter.com/Telegraph/stat…

The fundamental problem with post-Brexit politics is that Tory politicians now rely *entirely* on the support of angry people who don’t understand anything but believe the lie that they are somehow ‘winning’. It is obviously & eternally unsustainable. Hunt’s a mug for signing up.

Boris Johnson’s ‘honours’ list rewards stupid and/or dishonest people for helping to sell Brexit to the population. Even as its inevitable consequences continue to tear apart his party & our country.

Four years ago, Chapter 6 of this bestselling book, ‘Nanny States and Classic Liberals’, predicted, warned against & explained the events of the last four weeks with unerring precision. Chapters on Brexit, Trump, & more have proved similarly accurate… amzn.eu/d/6jv3sAP

If I’d been secretly funding the psychopathic imbeciles at @iealondon I’d be checking their refund policy right now. Literally days since they were boasting about having taken over Downing Street. Maybe other producers & presenters will finally stop booking them to spout bilge.

If committed Lib Dem Liz Truss had decided in her twenties to infiltrate the Conservative Party in order to become leader & screw it up from the inside, how exactly would she have behaved differently over the last month?

This is absolutely incredible. This @iealondon herbert seeks to defend the awful secrecy surrounding their funders by accusing @BylineTimes of being funded by a dead (but still identifiable) man. Good to see them so obviously rattled, though. More please. twitter.com/LBC/status/158…

It's ridiculous that she should be curtseying at all but curtseying so ridiculously somehow makes everything worse. twitter.com/chrisshipitv/s…
