This kind of far Right posturing has been mostly associated with the European continent. British intellectuals are mystified by this ugly nationalism and there is now an emerging consensus that what we are seeing is a backlash against the uneven outcomes of globalisation — whereby the few with access to economic and cultural capital have massively benefitted from an interconnected world while millions in the working class were shut out.

I tried that yesterday afternoon. Then I made the mistake of trying to catch up on Facebook which I've pretty much ignored for the last couple few days.RogerOThornhill wrote:Time for people to take a bit of a break.
Seriously, let's have a day off from here and go and do something else while this plays out.
So that's 5 people I don't want to hear from again. 4 of the "shout down anyone who disagrees with Nigel" variety, and the 30-something son of a very good friend who died unexpectedly not too long ago. Completely out of the blue, the son started posting Daily Mail front pages on Tuesday, by Thursday was adding his own enthusiastic comments on what should happen to immigrants next, and by Friday was displaying a grasp of British and US racist vocabulary I never knew he had. Complete with his comments calling for "all immigrants to the ferries LOL" and far, far worse. Der Sturmer would have been proud of him. His father would have been appalled.
I do wonder how his British Asian employers would react if they knew. Come to that, I would hope most employers would be a little wary of an employee who cheers on racist violence.

Jeremy Corbyn refuses to resign after losing no-confidence vote
Good. I've got no confidence in the no-confidencers.
I suggest the local party committees go behind their backs and have secret ballots to deselect them.
Then they can drip-feed the results, one constituency at a time, each hour, over several days.
It's the only language they understand.

One of the oddities about the hate speech laws is that you can avoid them to a great extent by careful use of language. CPS guidance (On the web somewhere) indicates they would be reluctant to prosecute someone not directly encouraging violence or mistreatment towards specific individuals. Have a generalised go at all ethnic minorities and there's a good chance the police will do nothing at all.
Anyway, Farage has the openly fascist groups to spread the nasty stuff for him while he dog-whistles denies he's in the least bit racist and claims he has no idea why his party is so attractive to racists. After all, UKIP are "the only party ex-BNP members aren't allowed to join" and he keeps "distancing" himself from the UKIP councillors who open their mouths and insert both feet.

Forgive me for asking but is this version of "democracy" really worth it?http://www.newstatesman.com/science-tec ... ive-brexit
UK scientists receive close to £1bn annually for research from the EU – a testament to the quality and influence of the work done on British soil. Between 2007 and 2013, the UK sector supported EU projects by spending €5.4bn, and was rewarded in return with funds of around €8.8bn; it’s a give and take relationship that has seen growth for both.
Speaking to the BBC, Sir Paul Nurse, Nobel Prize winner and director of The Francis Crick Institute said: “Being in the EU gives us access to ideas, people and to investment in science." The Royal Society reports that researchers at UK universities house more than 31,000 researchers of EU origin. The danger of losing much of that support is now imminent.

Probability of Labour winning 0.
Probability of him being PM 0
There is probably a debate about the probability of any alternative doing either, greater than 0, but by how much.
