I agree that free speech is imporant, but moderate politicians must counter their lies immediately. What concerns me is that Reform have billionaires behind them and if they go unchallenged they will win.
I remenber the Brexit election. Leavers EVERY day for weeks on end shouted out the huge amount that we paid to be in Europe. Nobody on the Remain side pointed out the amount we got back, nor did they demonstrate that all this mythicsl money going into the NHS was a lie.
It is just the same now. Day after day Farsge says how the Uk has gone down hill because we have too many immigrants. His mates in high places say the same thing (the part owner of Manchester United as an example). The rhetoric is the same as Hitler used against the Jews. Our moderate politicians need to fight back daily by pointing out that we need immigrants in the NHS and in Care homes. Instead, moderate politicians are far too timid; they are currently restricting the immigrants we need because they can and doing very little about boat people because they cannot do anything without infringing internation law.
Farage will say that by their actions even moderate governments agree with him. It is just they are incapable of doing the job. Su we need him. As I said, moderate governments need to fight back now and FAST.
