Just imagine if Twitter was owned by Russians... Carl Benjamin is a great thinker and free speech activist and I guess the old school classical liberalism.... he's been absolutely smeared to death by the MSM as a rapist, homophobic, racist, xenophobic etc etc.... I've watched his output in recent yrs and he just comes across as normal but the MSM have their agenda so he has to be labelled far right, loves tommy robinson etc.... The globalist MSM scum are slowly getting found out 👍

I think that any age is capable , young people are particularly taken in through" university" I'm not sure university is the socialist breeding ground it is made out to be. For a start, at least half of the students are too pissed to be able to spell EU And the other half to illiterate

Just imagine if Twitter was owned by Russians... They were banned before announcing they were running the election weren't they? It's a bit like Charles Bronson announcing he's running in an election, then claiming that the establishment is locking him up for his political views. Did they think their Twitter ban would be lifted if they ran in an election?

Brexit Party rally in Blackpool Saturday 4th May at 2pm. Location: AFC Fylde Football Club. Admission £2.50. With Nigel Farage & Ann Widdecombe
I'll be attending this. Anyone else intending to go? I know there's several of us who live a relatively short drive away. You can buy tickets online following the links at thebrexitparty.org. I've got to say that I have never, ever been so impressed at the quality of candidates for a political party. Lawyers, teachers, business people, academics, journalists, charity workers, civil servants, doctors, dentists, trade unionists....the list goes on and on. Individuals who have in some cases had to sacrifice their jobs in order to stand. It is truly inspirational.

I can't make it unfortunately but I'm hoping another rally will be in my area so I can attend ! I agree over the candidates, they seem a very diverse spread of people with real desire to change and improve things ! Like the new avatar !

Fylde a quick blast up the M56(?) and M6 for you I would have thought. Thanks. British bulldog spirit and all that! I'll revert back to Sir Stan when we eventually leave. Until then the fight goes on. Never surrender!

Oh very good, the totally unbiased voice of James O'Brien ! Even some of his fellow presenters on LBC (not Farage) have had enough of his utterly biased rhetoric. Have you ever had the misfortune to listen to any of his interviews with callers or guests ? He doesn't allow them any opportunity to make a valid point before he's straight in talking them down and belittling every single thing they say if he doesn't agree with them. But as I say, at least he's totally unbiased

True but most people are usually prepared to at least give the other person the opportunity to make their point before jumping in and belittling them. O'Brien has made his immediate interruptions and arrogant attitude into a new art form. His complete lack of tolerance of anyone with an opposing viewpoint is very well known.

O'Brien has made his immediate interruptions and arrogant attitude into a new art form. His complete lack of tolerance of anyone with an opposing viewpoint is very well known. Not entirely true. JO'B usually listens to people make a point and then gets them to justify their position and doesn't let them wriggle out of it. Admittedly his manner is often short and uncompromising, (and I think he sometimes forgets the benefits of his own, above-average education) but he does listen (more?) to those willing to defend the issues they themselves raise. This may be why very few politicians appear on his show - the prisons minister Rory Stewart being a notable exception.

You're entitled to their point of view. Stage 1 is belligerent interruption. When that doesn't work, Stage 2 will see The R Card being played. They're as predictable as a Stoke attack.

This may be why very few politicians appear on his show - the prisons minister Rory Stewart being a notable exception. I have to disagree - whenever I've listened to him he's started off giving the caller or guest the opportunity to state their viewpoint, but as soon as he sees which way the conversation is going he always jumps in and interrupts and just generally talks over the other person. I don't find that he ever really gives them the opportunity to make their points unchallenged before he responds. I agree that very few politicians (Rory Stewart excepted, and I think he always speaks well, irrespective of whether you agree with his viewpoint or not) appear on his show and this is due in most parts to his over-domineering, impatient and intolerant attitude.

I see Chuka and Sourberry's mob of duplicitous, cowardly toe-rags are doing well ! How the hell can 10% of those people surveyed say they will vote for a party who's leading characters won't even honour their own constituents with a by-election after changing parties mid-Parliament, and who have so blatantly gone against everything they said directly after the referendum (I know that bit seems fairly commonplace for most M.P.'s) ?

Speaking personally, it's a shame Rory Stewart is a remainer. He's exceptionally well versed and experienced, and has achieved a great deal in his young life. Under normal circumstances I would like to see him as leader of the Conservative Party and perhaps as a future PM. Maybe one day when all this settles down. Who knows?

Exchange Brexit for to Remain and you've got the same argument.. And what makes it more ridiculous is that the decision had already been made and they lost the vote. This guy is as thick as pigshit, with the debating skills of Kevin the teenager and the same facial expressions as Sourbry.

And what would the question be ? The only short term things to discuss are contained in the transition arrangements . We have no idea yet what the long term relationship will be as the EU refuse to talk about it until we have left . The long term relationship is the one people should be discussing if indeed an indicative vote was offered not the short term transition deal which only runs until next year

"If we don't stay in, people who used to bomb the shit out of us, might start bombing the shit out of us, again"?

Say what you want about O'Brien (and I like his old stuff but recently he's become a bit too hysterical for me), but he called the nature of Farage's return back in 2016:
That's some pretty impressive foresight.
