    Answer, absolutely nothing, as no ones skin colour or race, should get preferential treatment or leg ups, compared to others.
    That deflated the interviewer immediately
    You actually asked Sith for an explanation of his description of Farage…not me for proof.

    MA raised the parallel between Farage and a contemporary, latter day Mosley…there are loads…I’ll list them if it helps.

    Please do, seeing as Mosley was a self confessed fascist and admirer of Hitler and Mussolini. I am intrigued how you can put a parrallel on that with any justification. You also can explain to me, how the right is Rising all over the EU in response to the inept policies and lack of care from the EU body.

    Okay…a few parallels for you.

    Both good at public speaking, at least as far as the gullible are concerned, i.e. both very effective ‘rabble rousers’.

    Both privately educated and from privileged backgrounds who then made a political ‘career’ out of portraying themselves as ‘men of the people’.

    Both dabbled as members of the Conservative Party before becoming disenchanted egotists who formed their own Parties.

    Both rapidly progressed to blame immigrants and the poor for all society’s ills. For Mosley’s Jews read Farage and Muslims.

    Both present as self seeking, opportunistic populists.

    Both idolised the most controversial political figures of the day. In Mosley’s case, as you rightly say, Hitler and Mussolini. In Farage’s…admiration for Putin and adulation of Trump.

    Both were/are a menace to their country, although that last one may be just my opinion. There’s more but that’ll do for now. Decided whether you want to identify as a modern day ‘black shirt’ yet?

    You are seriously calling that a comparison? lololol

    Laughable.

    Here's one for you to defend, from Jess Phillips after what Farage has highlighted. This is the problem with some ot you lot. Rather than talk about and confront a problem, you'd rather persecute the person raising the points.

    Have a watch and Phillips is complicit in not calling the problem out fully.

    No, not ‘a comparison’…seven, very easy, parallels… ‘comparisons’ if you prefer.
    Still, if you just want to return to being ‘Capt.YouTube’, have someone else make your points and shift the debate somewhere else, that’s up to you.
    I’ve got better things to do…oh and I’m not sure how your beloved Nigel is being ‘persecuted’ but I’m certainly not involved. I’m just supporting the description of him being an ‘awful human being’.

    rA, best do what I've done an ignore the tw@t!

    Though it might be pertinent to note that Reform got basically the same proportion of the vote that UKIP did in 2015, which suggests that any suggestion there is a groundswell or support for a far right party in the UK isn't true.
