The party of freedom. Just not that freedom.

United by homophobia and transphobia, divided by xenophobia.

Wouldn't this be less xenophobia and more islamophobia

Even immigrants can hate other immigrants.

Zia Yusuf was born in Scotland though.

An Indian shop keeper in my town just stood for Reform at the council elections last month. I can't wrap my head around it.

I mean, sure, he's there for the reduced beauracracy and borderline libertarianism that also includes sucking off those with more money, but that comes with the racism. So much racism.

He didn't win, of course, but if he had, then what? A member of party who members hate him because of who his grandparents were. Bizarre.

I'm not saying I don't believe it, I've just been bamboozled too recently by that telegraph article with the posh family to believe that people are truly as unaware of their actions as I apparently want to believe

Well, don't believe it as while he really resigned, the quote of sobbing Chairman was an obvious joke I made - a reference to a sobbing woman who voted for Leopards Eating People's Faces Party.

From an October 2015 tweet by Adrian Bott (@cavalorn): "'I never thought leopards would eat MY face,' sobs woman who voted for the Leopards Eating People's Faces Party."
