Brian Cox now enjoys frequent invites on this and similar news review shows for no identifiable reason other than he played a fictional Murdoch type character.
Don't know if Rachel Brosnahan has had as many invites as Brian to discuss current affairs but she is Lois Lane in the latest Superman film so just as qualified as Logan Roy.

It helps if 90% of your show's audience works in the media.

All there, isn't it:
* The Left. (So powerful they are capitalized).
* My friend.
* Someone.
* Silenced (some truth in that this time).

Farege shoehorns his victimhood into a rambling headline, and the Scottish Heil fills its front page.

Meanwhile... real Farage crosses Atlantic frequently and rubs shoulders others who demonise "enemies" and turn a blind eye to "convenient" political violence, including killings.

[Spoonman]

I believe this is the same Farage that in the wake of Jo Cox's murder proclaimed that Leave won the EU referendum "...without a shot being fired"?

Pepperidge Farm remembers. Cunt.

[Youngian]

Doesn't look like the sort of t-shirt a leftist would wear so Farage knows he's shit stirring without any evidence.

QTWTAIN.

Own it, you cunt. Half page apology on the front of the Mail would tick the equal prominence box.

God I'd love someone to really fucking take him to task for his shit. Cut past his blather, his slimy equivocations.

'You wrote in defense of a man who expressed deeply prejudiced and fundamentally moronic opinions, based on arbitrary moralising and absolutely no concern for the flourishing of people other than those he arbitrarily thought acceptable, who, yes, shouldn't have been murdered, and in writing of this you implied it was the left's fault, some amorphous blob you're extremely practised at demonising and waving your hand in disgust at - what have you to say now, you absolute fucking weasel?'

How anyone can admire this man is beyond me. It's not politics, it's fucking basic human intuition.

The wilful blindness to right wing radicalism is so unbelievably obvious I'm baffled it has to be observed, yet he gets away with this shit every time.

At the moment I can count on one hand the people who have actually taken him to task….

That congressman a week back….that seems about it bar some jibes from Starmer.

It's not only him. There's an entire narrative being built around the idea that the Left are violent terrorists (Left of course covering everything from the Lib Dems to Trotsky) and the right are decent, peace-loving and respectful people.

The US now has Schrodinger's leftists: Gun control pussies who are also quick on the draw assassins.
