What does that say about the British media's scrutiny of Farage in the past 20 years?
And what does it say about Crick's tin ear if he thinks ethnic minority voters make a difference to Reform's fortunes?

Some of the most anti-immigration voices I've encountered are the offspring of Ugandan Asians...

Didn’t Crick write a biography of Farage? Shouldn’t he have spotted this stuff?

Didn't someone on here say that a lot of East African Asians were brought over from India to run the colonies and were therefore convinced of their own superiority?

They did: can't remember who though.

To illustrate a point, have a look at "Brown Car Guy" on YT, and the comments below.

Ugandan Asians are a more visible minority than others because of the high profile way they arrived, and the fact that they've produced quite a few high achievers. My guess is that they're more Tory voting than other groups, but I'm sure they aren't that exceptional in terms of their attitudes to immigration. I think Galloway is maybe a good indication of where the communities he targets are. To say the least, the pitch isn't "let's have more asylum seekers".

He did, some of these allegations were in the book.
Here he is challenging Farage about the allegations on Channel 4 News 12 years ago.

[Tubby Isaacs]

Ah, ok. He gave a rather generous verdict of Farage not being racist, I recall.

Here's Channel 4's report about Farage's schoolboy racism from 12 years ago.
Reform does have ethnic minority voters, a mix of ex-Tory small business owners afraid of Labour and an element of former migrants who want to pull up the drawbridge behind them.
