This is the kind of crap that Eva Braun would have been ranting after a night on the schnapps with Hitler.

Farage operates by stealth, treading a very fine line, dog whistling thugs up when there’s a chance while looking the other way and admiring the weather. This monster fits in well at Stages 2 or 3, when Gauleiters are needed to crack local whips.

Time to get on the BBC and keep banging the drum. Mind you, you’d be lucky to get a slot with the Clacton Foghorn filling them up.

Not yet. I’ve ordered more pins for the doll.

It’s called Head up Own Arse Toryism. I met a lot of them at University in the 60s when rough diamonds like me from Yorkshire were rare. I pricked a few boils. Or boiled…..

Check what happened to Heydrich.

I’ve said this before on here, but here it is again: the USMC is widely respected in the world for its battle honours, like Normandy Landings, Sicily and Italy, the Pacific Islands, Iwo Jima to name a few. Don’t add Los Angeles or worse, USA to these. The stain would never go. Semper Fidelis.

Indeed. Bounced several times around the world, changing identities, names and currencies before floating down gently, white as snow, into waiting arms in the Cayman Islands.

Rhetorical! Meanwhile in other news, Nigel promises to turn water into beer when he is PM. Every home to have a beer tap.

Is the BBC reporting this?

The USMC is admired around the world. Their actions stand out. Normandy Landings, Sicily and Italy, the Pacific, Iwo Jima. And then……Los Angeles. It doesn’t fit, does it? Don’t do it you guys.

Imagine stuffing people into gas chambers to kill them, then bulldozing the piles of bodies out to be covered with gasoline and cremated. Saying it was necessary because they were vermin. That’s only a step further down the road taken by Trump.

The BBC long ago lost its grip on reality. Balanced reporting doesn’t mean equivalence necessarily. Interference with religious tolerance is just not on.

Well, erm, it’s not the way we would do it this side of the Atlantic. However, I’ve come across worse barbarism in Europe. Once in a bar in Spain I asked for a cup of tea. I got a tall glass full of boiling milk with a teabag floating belly up like a dead frog. The milk had curdled at the thought.

This is an interesting conversation. My wife was a hospital pharmacist, absolutely top end. For 6 weeks a year she lectured intern MDs but always was on hand at the ā€œhatchā€. People would ask her if they could talk to the pharmacist. The real one. The man. (He was a technician).

Why do they need an absolutely top scientist when a swig of bleach cures everything?

He needs to go back to clown school to learn how to put that makeup on.

ICE agents? Sounds more to me like the local paedo pick’nmix outing to molest children.

I’d like to see a LOT more daylight between us and Israel. My feelings have nothing to do with anti-Semitism and everything to do with genocide.

Old proverb comes to mind: Don’t feed the people of the village to the crocodile to appease him so he won’t eat you. You are just last on the menu.

He’s displaced Corporal Hitler in the rankings.
