  I’m more annoyed at how many Brits seem unaffected by Robinson’s brand of mob violence right up until they think a Russian might be involved. It’s nativism coming and nativism going. Nobody seems to want to grapple with the problem of white Britons being absolutely out of pocket.

    Nobody seems to want to grapple with the problem of local white Britons being absolutely out of pocket.

    Zack Polanski does, and he’s the o lú one doing it credibly. Check out his Bold Politics podcast if you’re interested.

      I would love to support Zack Polanski, but the British Press just told me he is being puppeteered by Jihadi Extremists, the Yellow Menace of the Far East, and the insidious hand of the Radical Transgender Communist movement.

        My favourite is “The Green Menace”. Another one I saw today referring to the excellent Mehdi Hasan.

        I laugh because the tabloids are unhinged, but they’re unhinged because it’s effective among certain cohorts.

      Zack Polanski’s manifesto looks like something a 14 year old twitter user would write to be rebellious. It’s like a guide on how to destroy the country

        Whose manifesto reads better?

    Do you have any examples of people actually like this? Or are you making up a person to be mad at.

    Most of the people I’ve seen who critise Robinson also critise Lucy Connolly, who has (AFIK) has no links to either Russia or Israel like Robinson.

    Really?

    Cause I think we have a track record in the UK of not caring, regardless of evidence of foreign backing. The proof of the extent that Farage’s various poor excuses for a piss up party had Trumpist as well as Russian backing was huge, but never seemed to get in their way.

    I wonder why the Tommy boys are never waving a Russian flag?
    Invariably it’s a fascist israeli one.
    But we don’t talk about that influence in the west do we?

      Mentioning that Robinson waves an Israeli flag is antisemitic.

  A bit of Nazism, as a treat.
