Carl Benjamin: The problem with the British right...

The problem with the British right is that nobody is able to create a big tent which can encompass those who wish to push hard on certain issues alongside the wimpy types who can't help but be obsequious to the liberal opinion. It should have been Nigel Farage, but he didn't have the stomach to follow in the footsteps of Trump and repudiate the media and rely upon the online cohort to project his message. He also wasn't brave enough to stake out a popular but controversial position and judo-flip the media into spreading this message for him. Purging his right has just created more problems, in fact, worse problems than having the hardliners inside the tent. This is the lesson that Keir Starmer also learned the hard way: you might not like your radicals but they are a non-trivial percentage of your coalition, so you must tolerate them. Starmer didn't, and they went to the Greens. Farage didn't, and they became Restore. Labour are rebuilding their tent as Burnham is morally more aligned with his radicals than not. Farage doesn't seem to be able to extend this kind of sympathy to his flank, so it seems he will be unable to make any progress on this issue. The Reform goose is cooked if their star player is the reason that they can't advance any further. No good moves left for them to make.

Carl Benjamin: In response to this article...

In response to this article, Mr Lowe said: “The Telegraph’s obsession with Restore Britain is reaching new levels of hysteria. We are clearly not responsible for what random members of the public say on the internet. “Restore Britain has made our position clear on immigration. We will deport the illegal migrant population, along with those foreign nationals who refuse to work, can’t speak our language, claim benefits, live in social housing, hate our way of life and are a burden on the British people.” He added: “British citizenship will mean something again. The Islamification of our country will end, and immigration from the Third World into Britain will end entirely. That is our position. What anybody else argues is for them. This is where we stand. “Wouldn’t it make a positive change if the Telegraph were to cover our actual policy papers that are released on a regular basis instead of resorting to such boring smears?”

Carl Benjamin: "If you're psychotic enough to kill...

"If you're psychotic enough to kill then you should be put down like a mad dog." Erm, yes. Obviously. Watching libtards disappear the victims of evil-doers is probably the aspect of liberalism I hate the most. Good and innocent people are murdered and are completely vanished by the lib, gone as if their lives never mattered at all. Their friends, families, and themselves--all these lives are ruined by the act of one murderous insane person. The liberal doesn't care. For some reason, these people don't have "rights" as the libtard understands them. There are no social or ideological brownie points to be earned because normal people, who are mostly good and decent, are not "marginalised". The liberal finds nothing unique about their circumstances to mine for their own vanity. But some mad dog child killer, that person's rights matter because the case is so novel, the cause so unpopular, that the liberal can ideologically distinguish themselves by standing up for it. Vanity and inhumanity, combined into the same parasitic liberal package.
