leviathan13 Posted October 8 Share Posted October 8 Why is it when Farage gets things wrong he's called all the names under the sun? What Diane 'Russ' Abbott does/says something stupid criticism is called racism? I mean, Abbott is one of the biggest Leftie race-baiters out there, but that seems to be forgotten about rather quickly in comparison from anyone a bit more right-leaning. I agree that freedom of speech should also include freedom of criticism... but that last bit seems to be a tad more biased to one side for some...

Also, there's a difference between 'getting things wrong' and 'making things up'. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because Farage is supposed to be the leader of his party, is intentionally seeking the limelight - in an extremely crass manner - and unfortunately has more followers than Abbott. In her case, she has been thankfully sidelined, Farage, unfortunately can't be - yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have two problems with Farage. Problem one is that he’s a liar. Problem two is that he’s a rabble rousing hate monger. A modern day Oswald Mosley. I’d have more respect for him if he actually accepted that he was an old fashioned racist and campaigned on those lines. He’s not even honest enough to do that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
