Is that the same security guard? Someone should throw a McFlurry his way. He's going to need cheering up.

It totally is.

We must have an inside man.

Clear the way, clear the way, milkshake coming through.

From other articles, apparently the lady is married to another Reform UK leader, and this was a stunt to gain attention.

Edit: Looks like this is not the case, the person was a labour-supporting Onlyfans model.

Citation needed.

Everything I've seen suggests almost the opposite.

Indeed, you are correct, Iโ€™ve updated the comment.

How did you know Iโ€™m currently in Perth?

If you look outside your window you'll see them waving, don't worry about it.

We're neighbors Bud!

That perfect arc. Like a lactose bullwhip.

I hope this does not become a trend.. throwing milkshakes at farrage.

[โ€“] Emperor 2 points 5 months ago

I'm sure it'll be fine and people will stop wasting milkshakes going for cheaper, home-produced options...

England was the first nation to abolish slavery, and now they have fallen into fascism.

[โ€“] Emperor 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

We aren't there yet.

Most countries have an undercurrent of explicit fascism and the UK is no exception from Oswald Mosely to National Front/Combat 18 (I had a few run ins with the latter in my youth) to recent proscribed groups like National Action but they rarely gain much traction like they do elsewhere in Europe (Italy and France most obviously). Farage isn't a fascist but he is a right wing populist and likely a wolf in sheep's clothing (although a friend did go on the piss with him and reckons he is genuinely affable), which is a concern as I can now see a path that takes him to Prime Minister (as, I presume, he can which is why he's standing) and that worries me as the right always have authoritarian tendencies that tend to start with quelling dissent then it escalates. So we may be sleep walking into fascism without a lot of people realising it.

What's your definition of the right?

I mean by all indications Labour will win the next election. Reform by comparison aren't even close. While they are anti-immigration I don't think they can be called out and out fascists like National Front. Reform even supports nationalising some industries.
