Reform UK is not BNP material

The case against Nigel Farage, Reform UK and any wider movement for a change of status of UK politics isn’t water tight. The meanings of terms and words that are used to describe nefarious activity have to be used properly.

In recent times this hasn’t been so. The haphazard pointing of fingers at anyone in the political system has got to stop, or we risk a BNP-style rattling of legitimate political activity.

The followers of Nick Griffin & Co. have often come at us, not just in the mainstream, but at a side angle. They’ve attacked us on all sorts of grounds and intimidated us in many types of ways.

The aims of a Far Right party in any state aren’t based on preservation alone but have terms of engagement. This is seen in other types of political movement, not just the right.

Nigel Farage has started a party that is steadying the political intrigue and wishes of a large number of people. He isn’t targeting people at random. He isn’t pursuing the harm of others.
