Farage's pushback

he says that Andrew Parker has confessed to being an actor- actually, he has admitted to doing some part-time acting. It still fails to deal with the other instances of abusive language and the details of overspending in Clacton by Reform UK.

Thanks, great analysis Prof. This is why we need you!

1:55 Andrew Parker is a paid-up member of Equity. It says so on his website.

[@therepublicofcynica]

Eight out of twelve videos with Farage's name in the title in one day. Seems a bit excessive to me.

[@ConradAinger]

Or obsessive.

[@cobbler40]

The whole UK media is his echo chamber. Every day we hear his lies. Always the number one news item. A party with no MPs !

[@Andrew-rc3vh]

I've just seen an agent ad specifying he is a fully paid up member of Equity and had been acting since he was 12. I think he said himself he has an RP accent. You want to look a bit closer into this.

[@neorich59]

It's not just about this individual. "Plant," or not, there are any number of reports of Reform members/candidates saying some pretty vile things. I wasn't convinced by Farage's assurances, or his assertion that he brought an end to BNP. If so, where did all their members go? Still, he achieved one thing that Sunak didn't. He wasn't booed off stage! 😉😉

[@bwilliams572]

How come BNP got demonised for backing Britain but SNP are ok for only standing for Scottish. Also its a pity no one listened to BNP when they warned about what was going on in the northern towns in the late 80s early 90s. Lots of young girls ignored by people calling the BNP racists. Shame on them.

[@BenJ2020]

@JohnMccabe-kr7du Absolutely it could just be a disgusting human being, but the police should be investigating however, they seem awfully quiet. I know some racist people, however they would never share those views especially to people they don't know

[@JohnMccabe-kr7du]

@BenJ2020 well that's the thing with people lije farage,they make it OK to air these horrible opinions in public

[@BenJ2020]

@JohnMccabe-kr7du Tell me one thing he's said that's racist. Pointing out an issue that nobody wants to address doesn't make you a racist. Asking for a sensible immigration policy, Starmer singled out those from the Bangladesh community, if Farage had done that he would have been eaten alive.

No doubt we will get trolled you will only get about 20% because the majority of the Uk population are not for scape-goating immigrants ; rather wealth inequality ; bad government policy ect. It's not disputed that controls are needed to immigration but these need to be done legally not some stupid stunt like Rwanda costing 2 £million per person .

The question is : was Andrew Parker acting at the time when C4 filmed him?

[@bwilliams572]

Yes. He put on his "rough voice" which he advertises in his blog. He is very posh speaking but he points out he uses a "rough voice" when acting.

[@markmasterson4811]

I don't think the method used to reveal this bad behaviour is reprehensible, it's what is investigative for these issues (because they only say the quiet part out loud when they think they are with like minded people). The other part of the clip with the guys at the pub is highly revealing and the only point to make in favour is that at least the guy in the Barbour had the grace to look uncomfortable about what the other guy was saying and the smarts to keep his mouth shut so we don't know if he agrees or disagrees with that appalling commentary. Perhaps if he disagreed he ought to have stood up against it. Re the greek model: let's not also overlook that they spent decades also torturing their own citizens. And remain a highly policed state, police with machine guns on Athens streets last summer with a highly paramilitary look, that's also what that little racist at 5he pub was advocating for the UK when reform is the government.

[@PlanofBattle]

Indeed. The point one of them made that new police intake would be made up only of “paramilitaries” was revealing.

[@robertjohn6354]

Something I haven't seen yet , is Parker might be a bit of a Walter Mitty , which would explain his standard assumed Reform views , from non Reform persons , being spewed out with gay abandon. Thumb up for a bit of balance Prof .
