It's only comical if I'm doing it, where do I extol the far right? Please tell me I think that is important for you to clarify. I think you understand the part where I say 'we might not agree with these groups'. Of course ukip is dead they got what they wanted, sort of, but please understand why they came about and write it down without using racist or xenophobic in your reply. Sure some people are but the same can be said about people that voted for all parties.Insinuating a quarter of a million marching is not significant, while extolling the alleged rise of populism is so blinkered its comical.
And for a Brexiteer you seem to have no problem lumping us in with the rest of Europe. Compared to the continent the UK has long remained immune from opportunist rightwing extremists. You mention UKIP - a party with zero MPs and plummeting membership - hardly a party on the rise!
And you are probably realising too that Brexit has not and will not bring any significant power back to the people. All it is doing is cementing the rule of the Westminister elite and lobbyists. That is why Jeremy Corbyn - with whom I don't agree on much by the way - has a lot of popular support. It is he who is seen as the antidote to the traditional politician, a real alternative from the Left. Whereas the Right in Britain IS the Conservative Party and be it Boris, Rees-Mogg or Theresa, you cannot get more establishment elite than them.
Brexit should bring back power to the people, 100% it should. Again the word is democracy. If we don't like whoever is in power we can vote them out, that is the idea.
I like some of Corbyn's policy's by the way but I don't like others and you are right he is an alternative from the Left.
Of course I'm lumping us in with the rest of Europe we are European, that's where we live. Ask yourself again for right or wrong what is causing this shift to 'far' politics both left and right? It's not trump.
I'll say it again burying your head in the sand, laughing at the simpletons that voted a different way, ignoring the fears of people, name calling is not going stop the rise of 'far' politics. Good policy will.
