I followed Nigel Farage on and off for 10 years.
When all's said and done about his standing in Clacton, milkshake incident etc, he remains at the end of the day one of the most repugnant shameless liars in UK history.
Some of his standout lesser-known lies I've compiled FTR 🧵
I cannot be the only one who thinks this -
look - we all saw the horror of Oct 7th - it gained global sympathy for Israel, who immediately took that currency and chucked it in the bin.
but you'd think right, in the never-ending effort to present as victims, there would be ONE bit of footage of Hamas or ANY Palestinian combatants actually fighting posted somewhere online?
I'm not kidding - and I have a large reach over most of the platforms - I haven't seen a single piece of footage that you could call combat.
sure, the IDF bowls-up to a 'Hamas base' and miraculously all the opposing fighters have gone. ''yeah it's a hospital a lot of the time but look at all this naughty stuff they left! ''
and yeah Iran sent a message of some ordnance they knew full well would fall on the Iron Dome.
but combat ? you know - this 'war' that is supposed to be happening - no one would benefit more than Israel to see some attackers and footage of being attacked. Right?
nothing would legitimise the cause of the IDF more than the world seeing them actually being assaulted. Perhaps some IDF casualties?
Anything?
I mean a cynic might think there is a gigantic fiction going on and that Hamas is literally a handful of pathetically ill-equipped men, many of whom already dead and/or captured last year, and are an almost non-existent enemy in a theatre of fake conflict that contains almost zero hazard for the dominant side.
Just so glad I'm not a cynic, or the very idea would be almost unbearable.
I mean, there is a word for mass murder based on a specific population with no defence capability or ability to flee, right?

@anon_opin A lot more guys are more concerned with grooming and appearance these days, so there is the demand for at least some of them. Most of the boys at my school look like extras from Love Island whereas back in my day you got a short back and sides and that was about it
5 years ago there was one gents barbers in my town, now there are 8 and all but one are cash only, there's no way these are all actually legitimate, viable businesses but the council don't give a shit as it means less empty shops on the high street.
@PolitlcsUK@thetimes Is the govt not becoming increasingly anxious about the extent to which they’ve failed the country and been exposed for being a bunch of corrupt, lying, racist crooks?
The Daily Mail has started a campaign to get books banned in schools.
If you would rather see The Daily Mail banned from the UK, give this a RT.
