(Off-topic insert) Stewart Lee: probably the best comedian in the world. That the BBC spend a fortune on that craven dunce McIntyre and Lee's show is cancelled tells you everything you need to know about the increasing blandness and timidity of our great broadcaster.

it's a fairly solid fact that Brighton is actually the epicentre of the 5th Column's command centre - headed by chief knee tremble Caroline Lucas with second in command Cobo the clown, not to mention all the Momentum dupes that go to trendy colleges there

What with Blair's labour being Tory in all but colour, I sniff a hint of contradiction in your reposte!
"ah, well seeing as most poor folk continue to vote for mass immigration loving Labour, then they only have themselves to blame for lack of housing, poor wages and unemployment etc.."

this is of course, what I am saying, ie. that Blair and Tories are the same - and this is the end result - hate mobs masquerading as either right or left with no real difference other than age - and tent cities springing up , might even buy some Argos shares come to think of it

Agreed Martina, but how does that correlate with "its poor people's fault for continuing to vote for mass immigration labour" when as you say we have effectively had 20yrs of conservativesque governance?

Ah, those pharisees, they certainly knew how to coin a phrase. I remember old Josephus well, and had some good times around the fire with Nicodemus too. What was it Gamaliel used to say? Oh yes, 'The law is a ass.' We used to fall about when he came out with that one.

There's other parties to vote for, Ukip for example or others that take an anti 'mass immig' line, or at least campaign against it, start new groups etc..

No Martina their are only 2 parties to vote for, providing one would want a country worth a Damn afterwards.
If mass immigration was really the countries biggest concern then ukip would have been swept into power instead they have been swept aside.

The 'far right' has always been a small but noisy minority who we spend far too much time worrying about. It's in Europe where the right has a hold and a real presence within the democratic system
The danger to the UK comes from the hard left, and Momentum its latest manifestation, in my opinion.

'Anywhere west of Cameron' I'd guess.
Seriously, though, 'the centre cannot hold': representative 'democracy' and the party system has failed its citizens and is so obviously serving the interests of elites. Hence the widespread political disaffection. UKIP tapped into this to an extent, but was (and still is) simply too stupid to appreciate its depth and direction. Momentum, on the other hand, is clued up and trying to marshal non-party oppositional forces for party purposes. This might work in the short term, but ultimately they won't be contained.

The 'hard left' like the 'far right' is difficult to define.
However I would suggest that in both cases you can recognise it when you see it.
