As I understand it, every bottle of Buckfast that england exports to abroad instead of to scotland is one fewer weapon in their long term campaign to poison the scottish people and destroy scottish civil society.

Scotland makes it, and despite the desperate evilness of England's treatment of the Scotts for 300 years, alcoholism is the one thing you can't blame on them.

Checked out for 1.5k posts or so and now the Guardian is telling me Farrage's Brexit party is polling well in the EU elections, which I also do not understand. Is the sky falling or is Labour and Corbyn still doing their thing?

If you want to vote for remain in the EU elections you have labour, Lib Dem’s, change uk, green, Plaid Cymru, snp splitting the vote. UKIP is dead. So guess what? The only Brexit party... is the Brexit party. No one in the media seems to understand this and are now starting the groundwork on a narrative that if the Brexit party gets the most votes by even just vote it means we gotta Brexit now the people have spoken. It’s so perfect that I’m starting to believe the conspiracy theories that it’s why our gutter press went so hard in on Sargon. Gotta bury UKIP.

He does raise one valid point when he asks "What is wrong with the BBC?" The answer being that they still continue to suck Farage's dick and give him as much screen time and free advertising as he can fit into his schedule.

See the British press don't muck about they ask the hard questions, it's just what they do to anyone, Shapiro wasn't expecting the brutal forensic takedown that's just normal for the "beeb" if Shapiro wasn't a 'new media' type and hadn't said things that are so blatantly outside the current UK overton window he would have gotten the exact same softballs every right wing oval office gets on the BBC. The BBC isn't better than American media, it's still terrible just in a slightly different way, it's funny that Shapiro crashed that hard but it's because he's weak not because British media is good at all.

Andrew Neil gave Shapiro a platform to do the same, he just wasted it because he's an idiot. Neil laughing and saying "if only you knew how ridiculous you sound" when Shapiro called him left-wing is the big tell - like didn't he wonder why the hell the BBC wanted to interview some rando from the US? Why someone completely unknown here is getting signal boosted?

Dance Officer posted:I mean, he is polling 30%? right now and the BBC have their veneer of impartiality to keep up. The Beeb's veneer of impartiality directly contributes to this mess. It started years back when the BNP won some minor victories in council elections and, for the sake of balance, the BBC aired their views and drove the national conversation wildly to the right. This gave rise to UKIP, who hoped to put a more acceptable face on far-right politics, for people who didn't subscribe to the full-on neo-fascism of the BNP but still wanted to hate brown people for "economic" reasons. Again the national conversation was driven to the right, and the BBC facilitated that by giving unwarranted airtime to Farage and his cohorts. This resulted in a big swing towards UKIP in the European elections, but also resulted in a whole spectrum of far-right wingnuts jumping on the UKIP bandwagon and causing the party to self-destruct. UKIP became the party of alt-right crazies instead of the party of moderate racists it was set up to be. Farage jumped ship and established the Brexit Party as a less overtly racist version of the UKIP party he helped found. History is going to repeat itself. The Brexit Party will likely do well at the polls in the European election, but will soon collapse as former UKIP people sign up and it degenerates into the infighting between different factions arguing how the others aren't doing racism right that destroyed UKIP. The far-right is a joke. They continually try to re-invent themselves as moderate racists but each time they form a breakaway "respectable" party it ends up being overrun by absolute neo-fascist bellends. And the crime of the BBC is that, under the veneer of balance, they give this whole clusterfuck a platform to spread their message.

The Beeb is also really dedicated to a particularly lovely implementation of its requirement to be 'balanced and impartial'. Which turns out to mean that in news commentary and factual programming whenever an opinion, view or conclusion is reached, you give airtime to someone with the opposite view to 'balance' it, however incorrect, heinous, crazy, corrupt, fringe or damaging that view is. So, say the BBC's leading morning news radio programme interviews an academic who has just concluded a six-year study into the economic effects of immigration, with rigorous analytical detail, well-chosen geographical and demographic samples and proper statistical correction and correlation testing, which says that immigrants are a net benefit to the economy. The interviewer will then turn to some gammony bellend from a right-wing think tank with a blandly ominous name like the Institute of Demographic Research, who will be given unbroken and largely unchallenged air time to talk about how his mates down the pub reckon all the foreigners are managing to claim all the benefits and take all the jobs, and even if immigrants do actually add net economic value they don't Share Our British Values and should all be sent back. The interviewer will ho-hum and say something like "well, this has been a lively exchange of views and this is going to remain a contentious issue for some time to come...and now it's Thought For The Day...", as if both those viewpoints have anything like the factual and intellectual weight behind them to be 'balanced'.

iirc farage got more airtime than the entire extraparliamentary left for many years, before the referendum when he was the leader of UKIP (or when he wasn't) or after when he stepped down and wasn't representing anyone at all he's a populist in the trump vein, playing the media for free coverage
