After the ReformExposed X/Twitter account revealed yesterday that Cllr Ian Cooper was listed as a “Top Fan” of the explicitly racist Facebook page titled “The European Race”, we decided to take a look at Cooper’s other social media accounts and see if this worrying signal was borne out elsewhere.

“Dr Shaga Bing-Bong…Time She F’d off back to Nigeria”

We quickly identified two further social media accounts belonging to Cllr Cooper, one on YouTube and one on X/Twitter. Both carry his real name, and made no real effort to disguise their origin.

The picture painted by Cooper’s social media posts is of a man who is deeply bigoted and tapped into far-right media and terminology. In response to a video clip showing the lawyer and academic Shola Mos-Shogbamimu, Cooper replied with a crude mangling of her surname and suggestions that she should “F[uck] off back to Nigeria.”
Compared to most of them, he is.

Presumably, these sewer-dwellers are posting under their own names or on accounts which are easily tracked back to them.

Anyway, "vetting".

Farage's latest vehicle is either disinterested or incompetent. They can't be neither, but they can be both.

I love the notion that all Reform candidates were properly vetted. The main question that Reform asks potential candidates is how much they are prepared to pay to be Reform candidates. In most democratic parties candidates go through a proper selection process where they are questioned by local members.

Surprised they’ve not signed up Piers Corbyn yet.

The only thing missing from that video is a shot of Farage in the background taking a well stuffed envelope from someone who works for BP.

Again, understand their thinking. They're clever enough to go beyond the Uniparty sheeple, therefore they reject all mainstream thinking, because that's what They want you to believe.

I think that's probably more representative of activists in Reform than people who vote for them. I'd be surprised if most Reform voters thought what Farage and co do about eg scientists and universities. I reckon if their nephew/ grandkids get into university, they're happy. Something else is going on with Farage and Trump- they know how to tap into voters who don't even want to know most of the policies, but pick up a vibe that they'll sort out the stuff that they don't like. You saw it with Muslims supporting Trump in Michigan- they saw a strong man who'd sort out Israel.
