But just ocassionally...<br /><br />Bouquet to Gabriel Gatehouse for an excellent thoughtful piece (on Newsnight) on the Trump followers in the USA. He had to top and tail it with some ritual abuse of Trump but otherwise it gave some insight into why so many people in the USA are backing someone so clearly lacking in so many qualities. <br /><br />It underscored, if it needed underscoring, just how very dangerous and destabilising is the phenomenon known as "globalism".

After all, they spent years saying UKIP existed due to a racist desire to remove foreigners, but now a majority of the country has voted for the existential reason for UKIP's existence.<br /><br />If Brexit actually starts to happen by the end of March, UKIP really wil be irrelevant. But if they're racist, so is not only everyone who voted to Leave, but so is Theresa May and every other politician, civil servant, public official, and journalist who goes along with it.David Preiser (USA)https://www.blogger.com/profile/00055001852090086556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3272054900018746845.post-74489405958595129792016-10-09T21:41:02.757+01:002016-10-09T21:41:02.757+01:00Just a brief comment on the BBC's Trumpomania....Just a brief comment on the BBC's Trumpomania...<br /><br />Since when have they started using the word "lewd"? lol <br /><br />Have they described the behaviour of Bill Clinton, or Hugh Grant or any number of rap stars, footballers and so on as "lewd"? No. Only Trumpy gets the full on Old Testament treatment of having his remarks described as "lewd". The others get let off with "inappropriate", "sexist" or "offensive". <br /><br />What next? Theresa May to be described as a common strumpet? Nigel Farage to be condemned for fornication and carnal desire?

Why would his appearance indicate he was an immigrant? In fact, if you think about it, someone's voice is much more likely to be a good guide as to whether they are an immigrant.
