A Messiah is born

Some MPs have been calling for the recall of Parliament, in order, to paraphrase Pritti Patel, so politicians can be seen to be getting to grips with the riots. Quite how that would work I don’t know. The Opposition would just say ’the government should have acted quicker’ and the government would say ’tackling these riots is our top priority.’ It doesn’t matter much which party is in power, the script is always the same. But Lo! Farage hath spoken!  According to the Evening Standard he said ‘the country needed to have “a more honest debate” about immigration, integration and policing to “give people the confidence that there are political solutions that are relevant to them”.’ So, in the absence of an ‘honest debate’ what have we got? Riots. Did the Standard leave out Nige’s condemnation of the riots? We’ll have to wait and see. Meanwhile, the weather forecast for this week promises lots of excellent riot conditions. The police will be asking for water cannons.
 
UPDATE: Nige has issued a statement in which he said ‘I have been totally appalled by the levels of violence seen in the last couple of days. The levels of intimidation and threat to life have no place in a functioning democracy.’ Actually, it’s been going on for more than a couple of days. Nige tells GB News’ handful of viewers that if his questions had been answered there wouldn’t have been any riots. It’s all because the authorities aren’t telling the truth that social media can take over the narrative, at least for the numpties who indulge in it. Farage is a saviour spurned, and the rioters will take heart from his sense of grievance.
