HOW TO BEAT NIGEL FARAGE, by @johnsweeneyroar.bsky.social & @plaidcymru.bsky.social Lindsay Whittle

A thread 🧵

@bbcnewsnight.bsky.social Matt Goodwin is a really unpleasant character
How can he sit in Bradford dismissing their opinions by telling them that only he knows the views of "normal.people out there"?
Who does he think he is talking to?
Abnormal people?

Matt Goodwin has talked nothing but rot on this show. I hope #bbcqt has learned a lesson: bring on people who actually have an area of expertise instead of a polemicist polsci "chinny reckoner".

Matt Goodwin has more chips on his shoulder than a carpenter caught in a frites spillage. The very essence of dull, unoriginal, utterly inconsequential little man. You can only pity the boneheads who hero worship such an absolute nonentity. #bbcqt

So, Matt Goodwin had his ass handed to him by the people of Bradford who clearly can see through his bullshit and hateful rhetoric.

Bradford can expect me to visit again, mainly for photography and coffee purposes.

Audience members tear apart Matt Goodwin’s anti-migrant narrative on Question Time "I think it’s quite poor that today you’ve used immigrants as a scapegoat for every single issue we’ve discussed."

GB News presenter and Reform supporter Matt Goodwin got humiliated on #BBCQT

Faiza Shaheen, "I'm so proud to be in this room at to hear so many people fight back against this hateful energy from Reform UK's Matt Goodwin - what's wrong with you"

Matt Goodwin, "Do you think this audience reflects Britain?"

Man in glasses to Reform UK's Matt Goodwin #BBCQT

"I think it's quite poor that today you've used immigrants as a scapegoat for every single issue we've discussed"

"It's not a very good look for Reform UK given the racist stereotypes around them"

No love for Matt Goodwin at #bbcqt yesterday just like there was no love for Dorries last week nor for Zia Yussef the week before that.
Can we have another look at those polls?

No one quite deserves to be made to look such a fool as Matt Goodwin. This is truly heartening.

The clear thread running through Goodwin's career is the drive to imbue his creepy fixation on immigration with the legitimising authority of supposed mass support. Here, audience members have disqualified themselves from the category of "the people" in his eyes by virtue of disagreeing with him.

In the UK, Andrew should face a criminal investigation into his conduct, and there must be a full inquiry into who knew what and when in the Royal Family and government. [3/3]

'Sacking Prince Andrew is just the start - now answer these questions' Finally, the Royals have discovered the sense to sack Prince Andrew, says Fleet Street Fox. But we still have questions

Well done on de-princeing Andrew. Now tell us what everyone knew, and when, and what price was paid.

The government, the Queen, the PM, the Met. The whole stinking pile:

Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House.

Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity.

They are not the same.

Reform UK's Matt Goodwin's response to Prince Andrew and Epstein is to talk about Pakistani grooming gangs preying on white girls

Far right populists don't care about rich white men in grooming gangs abusing white girls

🚨Two years+ after @GoodLawProject revealed Luxe Lifestyle were on PPE Vip Lane thanks to the help of a former minister, the government finally corrects the record.

But, as I detail in my book Viplanebook.com this is still the tip of the iceberg.

It’s likely that 70 firms were on VIP Lane not 52

Andrew removed from roll of the peerage after losing prince title and Windsor home Buckingham Palace confirmed Andrew's name had been struck from the roll - a key step in all his titles being formally removed.

No wonder Trump is afraid of the Epstein files.

If they can bring down a prince, they can surely bring down a “king.”

Ex-prince Andrew should answer US questions on Epstein if asked, UK minister says Chris Bryant says government welcomes king’s decision on his brother, who is now ‘ordinary member of the public’ * UK politics live – latest updates Andrew Mountbatten Windsor should go to the US to answer questions on Jeffery Epstein if asked to do so, a UK government minister has said, as it emerged that the former prince’s name has already been struck from the official roll of the peerage. Hours after the dramatic statement that King Charles had formally stripped his brother of all titles, including Duke of York, his HRH style and honours, Buckingham Palace said Andrew’s name had been removed from the roll, a move that in effect ends his public life.

Ex-prince Andrew should answer US questions on Epstein if asked, UK minister says

Out of respect for the decision taken by His Majesty King Charles of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and in furtherance of the special relationship between said Kingdom and the United States of America, I wish to humbly suggest the latter

RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES

Very poor from the government: it won't review suitability of X for its communications, and insists on keeping secret its previous review.
