Another rotten apple in the Reform barrel?

From The Times:

“Reform candidate standing in Kemi Badenoch's constituency says he will resign after comments emerged in which he called on people to vote for BNP

Grant StClair-Armstrong is standing against Badenoch in North West Essex

In 2010 he said 'I could weep now, every time I pick up a British newspaper and read the latest about the state of the UK. No doubt, Enoch Powell would be doing the same if he was alive. My solution … vote BNP!'”

It’s a mystery how so many racists end up standing for Reform, I just can’t understand how it happens.

If he wants people to vote BNP, why is he a reform candidate?

Wasn't it disbanded? Or am I confusing it with something else?

Maybe he should join the Labour Party and he can spend his days droning on about “Zionists”.

He encouraged people to vote BNP 14 years ago, when Reform didn't exist.

A clear racist, he understands his position and has resigned. He will never be seen in the mainstream political arena again, thankfully.

I'm very careful about throwing labels around, as it devalues when used like confetti, however, having looked into this person (I knew nothing of him until now) the label of racist is correct.

He knows this and has resigned.

Some people on Fab seem very censorious about things that people may have said in passing fifteen years ago.

I don’t know why these critics are hiding their faces on here. Let’s see who they are and see what their families and employers think!

A bit of a cliche, but people change. If everyone that supported the BNP 14 to 24 years ago were still the same, the BNP would still be relevant. Some went Labour and some went Tory, but they didn’t get the attention that they get if they join Reform.

It might also be worth mentioning that Labour has a problem with Anti Semitism, and the Tories have Islamophobia. The Lib Dims just don’t like white British people…

Yes indeed, "what about labour"? Are they the slightly-left-of-centre party led by 'good egg' SKS? Or closet commies controlled by UNISON/UNITE trade unions? Or a bit of both? We'll have to wait and see I guess.

Reform (and the Brexit Party and UKIP before it) have a strong libertarian streak. A very high percentage of UKIP members were sole traders, a statistic which was often missed when people used to talk about UKIP. So its concerns tended to come more from a business angle, and particularly the interests and attitudes of small business people.

The BNP was more of an authoritarian socialist outfit which didn’t have the strong business links.

As of course is Labour. People on the Left tend to think of themselves as being tolerant but there has always been a strong authoritarian streak through socialism and communism, and that has actually got worse over the last five years or so.

And of course Labour is also now pretty much an international globalist puppet organisation, aligned with the interests of big international business and international quangodom.

Plus of course both the BNP and Labour have a deep vein of antisemitism running through them.

UKIP had lots of Jewish members. I don’t know the figures for Reform but I’m sure it’s the same. Jews would have felt as welcome at BNP meetings as they would today at a Labour rally.

Well that’s what they called themselves.

Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei.

But what has that got to do with whether the Labour Party is antisemitic? I have made no mention of Nazis. Oddly that’s something you want to discuss. No mention of Mao, Pol Pot, Stalin.

Stop with the distraction and projection. You like to call out others’ “racism”. The Left should put its own house in order.

Each must decide what their own conscience permits them to vote for. Personally I will have no truck with racists, bigots, anti semites and Jew baiters (that’s the Labour Party by the way).

I’m sure it did. I’m sure it was many things at many different times. Socialist, rampant capitalist, kleptocratic, if we are talking economics.

I made no comments at all about the NSDAP - the other poster brought it up, I’m not sure of its relevance at all to the discussion. I was simply pointing out that Labour has a clear history of antisemitism. Its supporters should therefore be cautious of throwing around allegations of racism at other people.

As you say the NSDAP’s policies were probably a mix, to deny that there was any element of “socialism” to them simply to try and cleanse some ideology of liability in current times seems ridiculous.

"From The Times:

“Reform candidate standing in Kemi Badenoch's constituency says he will resign after comments emerged in which he called on people to vote for BNP

Grant StClair-Armstrong is standing against Badenoch in North West Essex

In 2010 he said 'I could weep now, every time I pick up a British newspaper and read the latest about the state of the UK. No doubt, Enoch Powell would be doing the same if he was alive. My solution … vote BNP!'”

It’s a mystery how so many racists end up standing for Reform, I just can’t understand how it happens."

5th July we will know how many of the reported increasing voter numbers will support this view. 17% at last count.

Oh shit I can’t!

The Nazis were NOT socialist. Simple. They appropriated the word socialist to appeal to the working classes in a cynical populist move to get support. There were some more left leaning members of the party in the early days but once Hitler got full control these were purged from the party.

Saying that they must be socialist because the word appears in their name is as credible as saying Apple are involved in fruit or Virgin is about no sex. It was a brand! The Nazis were very good at branding, marketing, and propaganda (PR). Excellent in fact.

They also evolved away from their roots substantially.

The other spurious argument sometimes put forward as “evidence” of the Nazis being socialist was some of their economic policies (not all) but only when taken out of context. Their positioning on the right wing of the political spectrum is based on the full picture of all economic and social policies.

The Nazis were fascists albeit a strand slightly on their own! They were demonstrably not socialists.

You do realise that this revisionist history started to appear in the 80s as a result of libertarianism and a need to distance modern right wing politics from the Nazis and try to tarnish the left wing by attempting to associate Nazism with socialism. It is all disproved bollocks.

Soz everyone else but can’t let crap like that be perpetuated!

The BNP has been dead for a long time, and their burial was conducted by their leader, who stupidly thought he would look good on question time. We all saw what a clown he was that evening on the telly.

UKIP had a rule, that anyone who had ever been involved with the BNP was not allowed to join. I very much doubt that Nigel has changed his position on this, and Richard also would not want them in Reform.

Let’s start a specific thread of you want that kind of a discussion. Also if you search back through the forums you will find this has been previously been discussed at length and there is plenty of information to absorb.

Also reread my post further up. There were indeed some economic policies that in isolation can be classified as being socialist. However, any serious analysis understands that you need the full picture and wider political and contemporary context before you can even begin to attempt to label anything. Plucking a single policy(s) out and then with 21st century eyes and sensibilities saying “that looks socialist” is simply very silly and devoid of critical analysis.

The one where they criminalised socialist and communist political parties and put their members (27,000 people) in Dachau (1933), the one where they banned trades unions and seized all their assets (also 1933), or maybe the one in 1936 where the Nazis arrested 11,000 people for socialist activities.

Each must decide what their own conscience permits them to vote for. Personally I will have no truck with racists, bigots, anti semites and Jew baiters (that’s the Labour Party by the way).

Because whether people think Nazis were socialists or not is one of the heuristics I use to decide whether someone is detached from reality or not.

Because the ‘logic’ behind the name indicating they were means that North Korea should be considered a democracy given it’s name is the Democratic People's Republic of Korea.

It also indicates a complete lack of any understanding of modern European history.

I can only bow to your superior knowledge of history.

And of course we shouldn’t read too much into the names of political parties. After all the Conservatives haven’t been conservative for some time, the Liberal Democrats are neither liberal nor democratic, and the Labour Party represents people who don’t do any productive work. We are well used to the misnomers.

Bit embarrassing to have made the Nazis were Socialists statement though ain’t it

Which of the NSDAP’s policies between 1920 and 1945 do you deny were “socialist”?

Let’s start a specific thread of you want that kind of a discussion. Also if you search back through the forums you will find this has been previously been discussed at length and there is plenty of information to absorb.

Also reread my post further up. There were indeed some economic policies that in isolation can be classified as being socialist. However, any serious analysis understands that you need the full picture and wider political and contemporary context before you can even begin to attempt to label anything. Plucking a single policy(s) out and then with 21st century eyes and sensibilities saying “that looks socialist” is simply very silly and devoid of critical analysis."

I have no interest whatsoever in discussing this topic. The only people who want to discuss it are you and the other Labour supporter. And I very much doubt either of you have any significant expertise on the topic that would be worth listening to. If I want to learn about 1930’s Germany I’m sure there are better places to look than the politics forum of a swingers website. There is no shortage of books about the subject, many of which are sitting on my office shelves. I’m still wading through a 600 page biography of Himmler when I get the time.

I simply pointed out that the Labour Party has a history of anti semitism and the response of the Labour Party supporter was to start talking about Nazi Germany. I’ve no idea why. I can only assume it’s distraction and projection.

Quite clever to put your date range from 1920 but as I say above the Nazi party evolved and purged itself of any socialist elements. Rohm and Hitler had quite different views.

Next you will be pointing at the covid furlough scheme and claiming the Conservatives are a socialist party

You don’t know anything about conservative politics.

Do you think the Nazis were socialists?

Well that’s what they called themselves.

Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei.

But what has that got to do with whether the Labour Party is antisemitic? I have made no mention of Nazis. Oddly that’s something you want to discuss. No mention of Mao, Pol Pot, Stalin.

Oh fuck it yeah why not…

I have a First Class Hons in European history 1850-1950 from one of the top three universities in the UK. Not going to say which one but let’s say the boat race was more fun when there was less shit in the water!

As for “the other Labour supporter” well I am not a Labour supporter. Just to be clear. But you went down the “Nazis were Socialists” route and it simply isn’t true no matter how many You Tube videos you watch or books you read by Frederich Hayek!

"A bit of a cliche, but people change. If everyone that supported the BNP 14 to 24 years ago were still the same, the BNP would still be relevant. Some went Labour and some went Tory, but they didn’t get the attention that they get if they join Reform.

It might also be worth mentioning that Labour has a problem with Anti Semitism, and the Tories have Islamophobia. The Lib Dims just don’t like white British people…

People do change. A sideways move from BNP to Reform indicates that some haven't.

Reform and the BNP have entirely different philosophies. The BNP is actually far closer to the Labour Party than to Reform.

The BNP has been dead for a long time, and their burial was conducted by their leader, who stupidly thought he would look good on question time. We all saw what a clown he was that evening on the telly.

UKIP had a rule, that anyone who had ever been involved with the BNP was not allowed to join. I very much doubt that Nigel has changed his position on this, and Richard also would not want them in Reform.

The witch hunt that is happening right now is unfortunate. But it won’t stop this roller coaster ride, non of us are wanting to get off.

Choo choo. All about the rebranded BNP train.

Fuck the BNP, I was never in favour of them. Reform UK are the new conservative movement. The Tories will either join us, or get out of the way."

Fair play, damaging the Tories chances at the election is relatively speaking a good thing.

Reform and BNP are pretty closely aligned though. Not sure if the BNP were anti-science or not. But the rest of the message is pretty similar, just wrapped in less visceral language.

I didn’t go down the Nazis are Socialists route at all, that’s something you and the other Labour supporter are desperate to talk about, rather than Labour’s antisemitism problem.

It’s odd why Leftists appear to be so desperate to cleanse their ideology of any link to Hitler.

It really doesn’t matter, given that all the other mass murderers in recent times have all been socialists or communists. Maybe they think if they can at least disassociate themselves from one mass murderer their opinions can somehow become slightly less soiled.

I could call myself an aristocrat, it doesn't make it so.

Ah yes it’s “not real socialism”.

Just like Pol Pot, Mao, and Stalin weren’t “real socialists”.

Maybe Starmer will get it “right” this time. Or maybe he won’t.

Oh shit I can’t!

The Nazis were NOT socialist. Simple. They appropriated the word socialist to appeal to the working classes in a cynical populist move to get support. There were some more left leaning members of the party in the early days but once Hitler got full control these were purged from the party.

Saying that they must be socialist because the word appears in their name is as credible as saying Apple are involved in fruit or Virgin is about no sex. It was a brand! The Nazis were very good at branding, marketing, and propaganda (PR). Excellent in fact.

They also evolved away from their roots substantially.

The other spurious argument sometimes put forward as “evidence” of the Nazis being socialist was some of their economic policies (not all) but only when taken out of context. Their positioning on the right wing of the political spectrum is based on the full picture of all economic and social policies.

The Nazis were fascists albeit a strand slightly on their own! They were demonstrably not socialists.

You do realise that this revisionist history started to appear in the 80s as a result of libertarianism and a need to distance modern right wing politics from the Nazis and try to tarnish the left wing by attempting to associate Nazism with socialism. It is all disproved bollocks.

Soz everyone else but can’t let crap like that be perpetuated! "

Hysterical.

2. Person B tries to create distraction by talking about Nazi Germany

3. Person C sends dozens of posts about Nazi Germany and demanding that everyone else stops talking about Nazi Germany

4. Person C claims victory by having “debunked” claims that were never made in the first place, based on having spent an afternoon reading some comics about Hitler at a Poly two decades ago.

Hysterical.

1. Person A raises fact of Labour having history of antisemitism

2. Person B tries to create distraction by talking about Nazi Germany

3. Person C sends dozens of posts about Nazi Germany and demanding that everyone else stops talking about Nazi Germany

4. Person C claims victory by having “debunked” claims that were never made in the first place, based on having spent an afternoon reading some comics about Hitler at a Poly two decades ago.

You missed.

0.5 someone jumps into the discussion and shoehorns in the classic "what about Labour" into a discussion that isn't related to Labour in any way shape or form.

"Can you substantiate any of this nonsensical rambling or are you one of these people who thinks the Nazis were socialists?

You don’t know anything about conservative politics.

So you just like shouting racist at people who disagree with you.

It was tired five years ago. Now it is just laughable.

Do you think the Nazis were socialists?

Well that’s what they called themselves.

Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei.

The clue might be in the name.

But what has that got to do with whether the Labour Party is antisemitic? I have made no mention of Nazis. Oddly that’s something you want to discuss. No mention of Mao, Pol Pot, Stalin.

Do you dispute Labour’s antisemitism? Is the EHRC talking nonsense?

Stop with the distraction and projection. You like to call out others’ “racism”. The Left should put its own house in order.

Each must decide what their own conscience permits them to vote for. Personally I will have no truck with racists, bigots, anti semites and Jew baiters (that’s the Labour Party by the way).

Because whether people think Nazis were socialists or not is one of the heuristics I use to decide whether someone is detached from reality or not.

Because the ‘logic’ behind the name indicating they were means that North Korea should be considered a democracy given it’s name is the Democratic People's Republic of Korea.

It also indicates a complete lack of any understanding of modern European history.

I can only bow to your superior knowledge of history.

And of course we shouldn’t read too much into the names of political parties. After all the Conservatives haven’t been conservative for some time, the Liberal Democrats are neither liberal nor democratic, and the Labour Party represents people who don’t do any productive work. We are well used to the misnomers.

Bit embarrassing to have made the Nazis were Socialists statement though ain’t it

Which of the NSDAP’s policies between 1920 and 1945 do you deny were “socialist”?

Let’s start a specific thread of you want that kind of a discussion. Also if you search back through the forums you will find this has been previously been discussed at length and there is plenty of information to absorb.

Also reread my post further up. There were indeed some economic policies that in isolation can be classified as being socialist. However, any serious analysis understands that you need the full picture and wider political and contemporary context before you can even begin to attempt to label anything. Plucking a single policy(s) out and then with 21st century eyes and sensibilities saying “that looks socialist” is simply very silly and devoid of critical analysis.

I have no interest whatsoever in discussing this topic. The only people who want to discuss it are you and the other Labour supporter. And I very much doubt either of you have any significant expertise on the topic that would be worth listening to. If I want to learn about 1930’s Germany I’m sure there are better places to look than the politics forum of a swingers website. There is no shortage of books about the subject, many of which are sitting on my office shelves. I’m still wading through a 600 page biography of Himmler when I get the time.

I simply pointed out that the Labour Party has a history of anti semitism and the response of the Labour Party supporter was to start talking about Nazi Germany. I’ve no idea why. I can only assume it’s distraction and projection.

Do I bite or not hmmmmm?

And I very much doubt either of you have any significant expertise on the topic

Oh fuck it yeah why not…

I have a First Class Hons in European history 1850-1950 from one of the top three universities in the UK. Not going to say which one but let’s say the boat race was more fun when there was less shit in the water!

As for “the other Labour supporter” well I am not a Labour supporter. Just to be clear. But you went down the “Nazis were Socialists” route and it simply isn’t true no matter how many You Tube videos you watch or books you read by Frederich Hayek!

I didn’t go down the Nazis are Socialists route at all, that’s something you and the other Labour supporter are desperate to talk about, rather than Labour’s antisemitism problem.

It’s odd why Leftists appear to be so desperate to cleanse their ideology of any link to Hitler.

It really doesn’t matter, given that all the other mass murderers in recent times have all been socialists or communists. Maybe they think if they can at least disassociate themselves from one mass murderer their opinions can somehow become slightly less soiled.

Yeah but it went down like this…

I’m also not a Labour supporter, I will just vote for them as they have the best chance of unseating the Tory in the constituency I live in. It’s a practice I adopt wherever I live, and have voted LibDem and SNP, as well as Labour.

The most important thing in my view is to rid the country of the blight of a Conservative government.

But what has that got to do with whether the Labour Party is antisemitic? I have made no mention of Nazis. Oddly that’s something you want to discuss. No mention of Mao, Pol Pot, Stalin.

Do you dispute Labour’s antisemitism? Is the EHRC talking nonsense?

Stop with the distraction and projection. You like to call out others’ “racism”. The Left should put its own house in order.

Each must decide what their own conscience permits them to vote for. Personally I will have no truck with racists, bigots, anti semites and Jew baiters (that’s the Labour Party by the way).

Because whether people think Nazis were socialists or not is one of the heuristics I use to decide whether someone is detached from reality or not.

Because the ‘logic’ behind the name indicating they were means that North Korea should be considered a democracy given it’s name is the Democratic People's Republic of Korea.

It also indicates a complete lack of any understanding of modern European history.

I can only bow to your superior knowledge of history.

And of course we shouldn’t read too much into the names of political parties. After all the Conservatives haven’t been conservative for some time, the Liberal Democrats are neither liberal nor democratic, and the Labour Party represents people who don’t do any productive work. We are well used to the misnomers.

Bit embarrassing to have made the Nazis were Socialists statement though ain’t it

Which of the NSDAP’s policies between 1920 and 1945 do you deny were “socialist”?

Let’s start a specific thread of you want that kind of a discussion. Also if you search back through the forums you will find this has been previously been discussed at length and there is plenty of information to absorb.

Also reread my post further up. There were indeed some economic policies that in isolation can be classified as being socialist. However, any serious analysis understands that you need the full picture and wider political and contemporary context before you can even begin to attempt to label anything. Plucking a single policy(s) out and then with 21st century eyes and sensibilities saying “that looks socialist” is simply very silly and devoid of critical analysis.

I have no interest whatsoever in discussing this topic. The only people who want to discuss it are you and the other Labour supporter. And I very much doubt either of you have any significant expertise on the topic that would be worth listening to. If I want to learn about 1930’s Germany I’m sure there are better places to look than the politics forum of a swingers website. There is no shortage of books about the subject, many of which are sitting on my office shelves. I’m still wading through a 600 page biography of Himmler when I get the time.

I simply pointed out that the Labour Party has a history of anti semitism and the response of the Labour Party supporter was to start talking about Nazi Germany. I’ve no idea why. I can only assume it’s distraction and projection.

Do I bite or not hmmmmm?

And I very much doubt either of you have any significant expertise on the topic

Oh fuck it yeah why not…

I have a First Class Hons in European history 1850-1950 from one of the top three universities in the UK. Not going to say which one but let’s say the boat race was more fun when there was less shit in the water!

As for “the other Labour supporter” well I am not a Labour supporter. Just to be clear. But you went down the “Nazis were Socialists” route and it simply isn’t true no matter how many You Tube videos you watch or books you read by Frederich Hayek!

I didn’t go down the Nazis are Socialists route at all, that’s something you and the other Labour supporter are desperate to talk about, rather than Labour’s antisemitism problem.

It’s odd why Leftists appear to be so desperate to cleanse their ideology of any link to Hitler.

It really doesn’t matter, given that all the other mass murderers in recent times have all been socialists or communists. Maybe they think if they can at least disassociate themselves from one mass murderer their opinions can somehow become slightly less soiled.

Yeah but it went down like this…

Do you think the Nazis were socialists?

Well that’s what they called themselves.

Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei.

The clue might be in the name.

That looks like you went down the Nazis were Socialists route to me (annoying when the thread still has all the evidence to quote).

So now as I picked you up on that I’m a leftist! guess you don’t read what is being written (you don’t have to of course, may well be boring, but if you try to label people, at least get it right).

And having been completely debunked on the Nazis are Socialist thing you widen the goalposts to say yeah but look at these others!

Well duh! Yep guess what. Human beings are evil and most evil is undertaken by those at the extreme ends of the political spectrum. Stalin was a bastard! No argument there. So was Torquemada but that’s another version of extremism!

But unless you also conflate Socialism with Communism, then it is the latter who have been utter assholes and killed millions (oh and let’s not get into that branding discussion again, I know it was the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics).

Hysterical.

1. Person A raises fact of Labour having history of antisemitism

2. Person B tries to create distraction by talking about Nazi Germany

3. Person C sends dozens of posts about Nazi Germany and demanding that everyone else stops talking about Nazi Germany

4. Person C claims victory by having “debunked” claims that were never made in the first place, based on having spent an afternoon reading some comics about Hitler at a Poly two decades ago.

You just made yourself look very very silly indeed. The thread history is all there for everyone to see. Just embarrassing yourself now, please stop!

Poly! You are old! Uni darling, a very good one too

Nobody who went to a decent University would call it “Uni”.

Why not?"

It’s chav and lowbrow.

I’m also not a Labour supporter, I will just vote for them as they have the best chance of unseating the Tory in the constituency I live in. It’s a practice I adopt wherever I live, and have voted LibDem and SNP, as well as Labour.

The most important thing in my view is to rid the country of the blight of a Conservative government."

There is no shortage of books about the subject, many of which are sitting on my office shelves. I’m still wading through a 600 page biography of Himmler when I get the time.

I simply pointed out that the Labour Party has a history of anti semitism and the response of the Labour Party supporter was to start talking about Nazi Germany. I’ve no idea why. I can only assume it’s distraction and projection.

Do I bite or not hmmmmm?

And I very much doubt either of you have any significant expertise on the topic

Oh fuck it yeah why not…

I have a First Class Hons in European history 1850-1950 from one of the top three universities in the UK. Not going to say which one but let’s say the boat race was more fun when there was less shit in the water!

As for “the other Labour supporter” well I am not a Labour supporter. Just to be clear. But you went down the “Nazis were Socialists” route and it simply isn’t true no matter how many You Tube videos you watch or books you read by Frederich Hayek!

I didn’t go down the Nazis are Socialists route at all, that’s something you and the other Labour supporter are desperate to talk about, rather than Labour’s antisemitism problem.

It’s odd why Leftists appear to be so desperate to cleanse their ideology of any link to Hitler.

It really doesn’t matter, given that all the other mass murderers in recent times have all been socialists or communists. Maybe they think if they can at least disassociate themselves from one mass murderer their opinions can somehow become slightly less soiled.

Yeah but it went down like this…

Do you think the Nazis were socialists?

Well that’s what they called themselves.

Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei.

The clue might be in the name.

That looks like you went down the Nazis were Socialists route to me (annoying when the thread still has all the evidence to quote).

So now as I picked you up on that I’m a leftist! guess you don’t read what is being written (you don’t have to of course, may well be boring, but if you try to label people, at least get it right).

And having been completely debunked on the Nazis are Socialist thing you widen the goalposts to say yeah but look at these others!

Well duh! Yep guess what. Human beings are evil and most evil is undertaken by those at the extreme ends of the political spectrum. Stalin was a bastard! No argument there. So was Torquemada but that’s another version of extremism!

But unless you also conflate Socialism with Communism, then it is the latter who have been utter assholes and killed millions (oh and let’s not get into that branding discussion again, I know it was the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics).

Hysterical.

1. Person A raises fact of Labour having history of antisemitism

2. Person B tries to create distraction by talking about Nazi Germany

3. Person C sends dozens of posts about Nazi Germany and demanding that everyone else stops talking about Nazi Germany

4. Person C claims victory by having “debunked” claims that were never made in the first place, based on having spent an afternoon reading some comics about Hitler at a Poly two decades ago.

You just made yourself look very very silly indeed. The thread history is all there for everyone to see. Just embarrassing yourself now, please stop!

Poly! You are old! Uni darling, a very good one too

I’m also not a Labour supporter, I will just vote for them as they have the best chance of unseating the Tory in the constituency I live in. It’s a practice I adopt wherever I live, and have voted LibDem and SNP, as well as Labour.

The most important thing in my view is to rid the country of the blight of a Conservative government."

I think you'll find that anyone a barleycorn to the left of Herman Goring (presumably also a socialist), is a loony left labour supporter.

"Can you substantiate any of this nonsensical rambling or are you one of these people who thinks the Nazis were socialists?

You don’t know anything about conservative politics.

So you just like shouting racist at people who disagree with you.

It was tired five years ago. Now it is just laughable.

Do you think the Nazis were socialists?

Well that’s what they called themselves.

Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei.

The clue might be in the name.

But what has that got to do with whether the Labour Party is antisemitic? I have made no mention of Nazis. Oddly that’s something you want to discuss. No mention of Mao, Pol Pot, Stalin.

Do you dispute Labour’s antisemitism? Is the EHRC talking nonsense?

Stop with the distraction and projection. You like to call out others’ “racism”. The Left should put its own house in order.

Each must decide what their own conscience permits them to vote for. Personally I will have no truck with racists, bigots, anti semites and Jew baiters (that’s the Labour Party by the way).

Because whether people think Nazis were socialists or not is one of the heuristics I use to decide whether someone is detached from reality or not.

Because the ‘logic’ behind the name indicating they were means that North Korea should be considered a democracy given it’s name is the Democratic People's Republic of Korea.

It also indicates a complete lack of any understanding of modern European history.

I can only bow to your superior knowledge of history.

And of course we shouldn’t read too much into the names of political parties. After all the Conservatives haven’t been conservative for some time, the Liberal Democrats are neither liberal nor democratic, and the Labour Party represents people who don’t do any productive work. We are well used to the misnomers.

Bit embarrassing to have made the Nazis were Socialists statement though ain’t it

Which of the NSDAP’s policies between 1920 and 1945 do you deny were “socialist”?

Let’s start a specific thread of you want that kind of a discussion. Also if you search back through the forums you will find this has been previously been discussed at length and there is plenty of information to absorb.

Also reread my post further up. There were indeed some economic policies that in isolation can be classified as being socialist. However, any serious analysis understands that you need the full picture and wider political and contemporary context before you can even begin to attempt to label anything. Plucking a single policy(s) out and then with 21st century eyes and sensibilities saying “that looks socialist” is simply very silly and devoid of critical analysis.

I have no interest whatsoever in discussing this topic. The only people who want to discuss it are you and the other Labour supporter.

I simply pointed out that the Labour Party has a history of anti semitism and the response of the Labour Party supporter was to start talking about Nazi Germany. I’ve no idea why. I can only assume it’s distraction and projection.

Do I bite or not hmmmmm?

And I very much doubt either of you have any significant expertise on the topic

Oh fuck it yeah why not…

I have a First Class Hons in European history 1850-1950 from one of the top three universities in the UK. Not going to say which one but let’s say the boat race was more fun when there was less shit in the water!

As for “the other Labour supporter” well I am not a Labour supporter. Just to be clear. But you went down the “Nazis were Socialists” route and it simply isn’t true no matter how many You Tube videos you watch or books you read by Frederich Hayek!

I didn’t go down the Nazis are Socialists route at all, that’s something you and the other Labour supporter are desperate to talk about, rather than Labour’s antisemitism problem.

It’s odd why Leftists appear to be so desperate to cleanse their ideology of any link to Hitler.

It really doesn’t matter, given that all the other mass murderers in recent times have all been socialists or communists. Maybe they think if they can at least disassociate themselves from one mass murderer their opinions can somehow become slightly less soiled.

Yeah but it went down like this…

Do you think the Nazis were socialists?

Well that’s what they called themselves.

Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei.

The clue might be in the name.

That looks like you went down the Nazis were Socialists route to me (annoying when the thread still has all the evidence to quote).

So now as I picked you up on that I’m a leftist! guess you don’t read what is being written (you don’t have to of course, may well be boring, but if you try to label people, at least get it right).

And having been completely debunked on the Nazis are Socialist thing you widen the goalposts to say yeah but look at these others!

Well duh! Yep guess what. Human beings are evil and most evil is undertaken by those at the extreme ends of the political spectrum. Stalin was a bastard! No argument there. So was Torquemada but that’s another version of extremism!

But unless you also conflate Socialism with Communism, then it is the latter who have been utter assholes and killed millions (oh and let’s not get into that branding discussion again, I know it was the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics).

Hysterical.

1. Person A raises fact of Labour having history of antisemitism

2. Person B tries to create distraction by talking about Nazi Germany

3. Person C sends dozens of posts about Nazi Germany and demanding that everyone else stops talking about Nazi Germany

4. Person C claims victory by having “debunked” claims that were never made in the first place, based on having spent an afternoon reading some comics about Hitler at a Poly two decades ago.

You just made yourself look very very silly indeed. The thread history is all there for everyone to see. Just embarrassing yourself now, please stop!

Poly! You are old! Uni darling, a very good one too

Nobody who went to a decent University would call it “Uni”.

Why not?

It’s chav and lowbrow."

Lolz that’s me told

And from the chap who said “poly” too!!!

"Can you substantiate any of this nonsensical rambling or are you one of these people who thinks the Nazis were socialists?

You don’t know anything about conservative politics.

So you just like shouting racist at people who disagree with you.

It was tired five years ago. Now it is just laughable.

Do you think the Nazis were socialists?

Well that’s what they called themselves.

Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei.

The clue might be in the name.

But what has that got to do with whether the Labour Party is antisemitic? I have made no mention of Nazis. Oddly that’s something you want to discuss. No mention of Mao, Pol Pot, Stalin.

Do you dispute Labour’s antisemitism? Is the EHRC talking nonsense?

Stop with the distraction and projection. You like to call out others’ “racism”. The Left should put its own house in order.

Each must decide what their own conscience permits them to vote for. Personally I will have no truck with racists, bigots, anti semites and Jew baiters (that’s the Labour Party by the way).

Because whether people think Nazis were socialists or not is one of the heuristics I use to decide whether someone is detached from reality or not.

Because the ‘logic’ behind the name indicating they were means that North Korea should be considered a democracy given it’s name is the Democratic People's Republic of Korea.

It also indicates a complete lack of any understanding of modern European history.

I can only bow to your superior knowledge of history.

And of course we shouldn’t read too much into the names of political parties. After all the Conservatives haven’t been conservative for some time, the Liberal Democrats are neither liberal nor democratic, and the Labour Party represents people who don’t do any productive work. We are well used to the misnomers.

Bit embarrassing to have made the Nazis were Socialists statement though ain’t it

Which of the NSDAP’s policies between 1920 and 1945 do you deny were “socialist”?

Let’s start a specific thread of you want that kind of a discussion. Also if you search back through the forums you will find this has been previously been discussed at length and there is plenty of information to absorb.

Also reread my post further up. There were indeed some economic policies that in isolation can be classified as being socialist. However, any serious analysis understands that you need the full picture and wider political and contemporary context before you can even begin to attempt to label anything. Plucking a single policy(s) out and then with 21st century eyes and sensibilities saying “that looks socialist” is simply very silly and devoid of critical analysis.

I have no interest whatsoever in discussing this topic. The only people who want to discuss it are you and the other Labour supporter. And I very much doubt either of you have any significant expertise on the topic that would be worth listening to.

I’m also not a Labour supporter, I will just vote for them as they have the best chance of unseating the Tory in the constituency I live in. It’s a practice I adopt wherever I live, and have voted LibDem and SNP, as well as Labour.

The most important thing in my view is to rid the country of the blight of a Conservative government.

I think you'll find that anyone a barleycorn to the left of Herman Goring (presumably also a socialist), is a loony left labour supporter.

Let’s start a specific thread of you want that kind of a discussion. Also if you search back through the forums you will find this has been previously been discussed at length and there is plenty of information to absorb.

Also reread my post further up. There were indeed some economic policies that in isolation can be classified as being socialist. However, any serious analysis understands that you need the full picture and wider political and contemporary context before you can even begin to attempt to label anything. Plucking a single policy(s) out and then with 21st century eyes and sensibilities saying “that looks socialist” is simply very silly and devoid of critical analysis.

I have no interest whatsoever in discussing this topic. The only people who want to discuss it are you and the other Labour supporter. And I very much doubt either of you have any significant expertise on the topic that would be worth listening to. If I want to learn about 1930’s Germany I’m sure there are better places to look than the politics forum of a swingers website. There is no shortage of books about the subject, many of which are sitting on my office shelves. I’m still wading through a 600 page biography of Himmler when I get the time.

I simply pointed out that the Labour Party has a history of anti semitism and the response of the Labour Party supporter was to start talking about Nazi Germany. I’ve no idea why. I can only assume it’s distraction and projection.

Do I bite or not hmmmmm?

And I very much doubt either of you have any significant expertise on the topic

Oh fuck it yeah why not…

I have a First Class Hons in European history 1850-1950 from one of the top three universities in the UK. Not going to say which one but let’s say the boat race was more fun when there was less shit in the water!

As for “the other Labour supporter” well I am not a Labour supporter. Just to be clear. But you went down the “Nazis were Socialists” route and it simply isn’t true no matter how many You Tube videos you watch or books you read by Frederich Hayek!

I didn’t go down the Nazis are Socialists route at all, that’s something you and the other Labour supporter are desperate to talk about, rather than Labour’s antisemitism problem.

It’s odd why Leftists appear to be so desperate to cleanse their ideology of any link to Hitler.

It really doesn’t matter, given that all the other mass murderers in recent times have all been socialists or communists. Maybe they think if they can at least disassociate themselves from one mass murderer their opinions can somehow become slightly less soiled.

Yeah but it went down like this…

Do you think the Nazis were socialists?

Well that’s what they called themselves.

Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei.

The clue might be in the name.

That looks like you went down the Nazis were Socialists route to me (annoying when the thread still has all the evidence to quote).

So now as I picked you up on that I’m a leftist! guess you don’t read what is being written (you don’t have to of course, may well be boring, but if you try to label people, at least get it right).

And having been completely debunked on the Nazis are Socialist thing you widen the goalposts to say yeah but look at these others!

Well duh! Yep guess what. Human beings are evil and most evil is undertaken by those at the extreme ends of the political spectrum. Stalin was a bastard! No argument there. So was Torquemada but that’s another version of extremism!

But unless you also conflate Socialism with Communism, then it is the latter who have been utter assholes and killed millions (oh and let’s not get into that branding discussion again, I know it was the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics).

Hysterical.

1. Person A raises fact of Labour having history of antisemitism

2. Person B tries to create distraction by talking about Nazi Germany

3. Person C sends dozens of posts about Nazi Germany and demanding that everyone else stops talking about Nazi Germany

4. Person C claims victory by having “debunked” claims that were never made in the first place, based on having spent an afternoon reading some comics about Hitler at a Poly two decades ago.

You just made yourself look very very silly indeed. The thread history is all there for everyone to see. Just embarrassing yourself now, please stop!

Poly! You are old! Uni darling, a very good one too

I’m also not a Labour supporter, I will just vote for them as they have the best chance of unseating the Tory in the constituency I live in. It’s a practice I adopt wherever I live, and have voted LibDem and SNP, as well as Labour.

The most important thing in my view is to rid the country of the blight of a Conservative government.

I think you'll find that anyone a barleycorn to the left of Herman Goring (presumably also a socialist), is a loony left labour supporter.

Gnat’s pube surely

We've ditched the communist decimal system and modernised in anticipation of Reform getting some seats and got imperial.

Did you learn that measurement system at a chav lowbrow uni?

Yes. My uni was a polytechnic until a year or two before I started. My chav degree is basically worth nothing. Not to mention it's a BSc, and as we all know, science is just a load of unsubstantiated opinion. "

That’s a shame, a few years on and you could have a got a Third in Environmental Science and been advising Labour on the Green Prosperity Plan. I think it just involves linking together a series of totally meaningless and contradictory buzzwords and hoping nobody notices.

"Can you substantiate any of this nonsensical rambling or are you one of these people who thinks the Nazis were socialists?

You don’t know anything about conservative politics.

So you just like shouting racist at people who disagree with you.

It was tired five years ago. Now it is just laughable.

Do you think the Nazis were socialists?

Well that’s what they called themselves.

Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei.

The clue might be in the name.

But what has that got to do with whether the Labour Party is antisemitic? I have made no mention of Nazis. Oddly that’s something you want to discuss. No mention of Mao, Pol Pot, Stalin.

Do you dispute Labour’s antisemitism? Is the EHRC talking nonsense?

Stop with the distraction and projection. You like to call out others’ “racism”. The Left should put its own house in order.

Each must decide what their own conscience permits them to vote for. Personally I will have no truck with racists, bigots, anti semites and Jew baiters (that’s the Labour Party by the way).

Because whether people think Nazis were socialists or not is one of the heuristics I use to decide whether someone is detached from reality or not.

Because the ‘logic’ behind the name indicating they were means that North Korea should be considered a democracy given it’s name is the Democratic People's Republic of Korea.

It also indicates a complete lack of any understanding of modern European history.

I can only bow to your superior knowledge of history.

And of course we shouldn’t read too much into the names of political parties. After all the Conservatives haven’t been conservative for some time, the Liberal Democrats are neither liberal nor democratic, and the Labour Party represents people who don’t do any productive work. We are well used to the misnomers.

2. Person B tries to create distraction by talking about Nazi Germany

3. Person C sends dozens of posts about Nazi Germany and demanding that everyone else stops talking about Nazi Germany

4. Person C claims victory by having “debunked” claims that were never made in the first place, based on having spent an afternoon reading some comics about Hitler at a Poly two decades ago.

You just made yourself look very very silly indeed. The thread history is all there for everyone to see. Just embarrassing yourself now, please stop!

Poly! You are old! Uni darling, a very good one too

I’m also not a Labour supporter, I will just vote for them as they have the best chance of unseating the Tory in the constituency I live in. It’s a practice I adopt wherever I live, and have voted LibDem and SNP, as well as Labour.

The most important thing in my view is to rid the country of the blight of a Conservative government.

I think you'll find that anyone a barleycorn to the left of Herman Goring (presumably also a socialist), is a loony left labour supporter.

Gnat’s pube surely

We've ditched the communist decimal system and modernised in anticipation of Reform getting some seats and got imperial.

Did you learn that measurement system at a chav lowbrow uni?

Yes. My uni was a polytechnic until a year or two before I started. My chav degree is basically worth nothing. Not to mention it's a BSc, and as we all know, science is just a load of unsubstantiated opinion.

That’s a shame, a few years on and you could have a got a Third in Environmental Science and been advising Labour on the Green Prosperity Plan. I think it just involves linking together a series of totally meaningless and contradictory buzzwords and hoping nobody notices.

Yes, science is useless, what have we ever achieved through scientific research! We need to focus on belief based thinking, no real information needed.

We don't need anything based on scientific method. Anything describing the universe around us that involves replicatable experiments, peer reviewed papers etc is a pointless waste of time.

Especially when the world’s “top scientists” are so keen to deceive the public about tiny matters like the origins of a pandemic and the effectiveness of vaccines. FoLlOw ThE sCiEnCe!

And follow the money of course…"

Lolz

I can't even be sarcastic anymore.

"Can you substantiate any of this nonsensical rambling or are you one of these people who thinks the Nazis were socialists?

You don’t know anything about conservative politics.

So you just like shouting racist at people who disagree with you.

It was tired five years ago. Now it is just laughable.

Do you think the Nazis were socialists?

Well that’s what they called themselves.

Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei.

The clue might be in the name.

But what has that got to do with whether the Labour Party is antisemitic? I have made no mention of Nazis. Oddly that’s something you want to discuss. No mention of Mao, Pol Pot, Stalin.

Do you dispute Labour’s antisemitism? Is the EHRC talking nonsense?

Stop with the distraction and projection. You like to call out others’ “racism”. The Left should put its own house in order.

Each must decide what their own conscience permits them to vote for. Personally I will have no truck with racists, bigots, anti semites and Jew baiters (that’s the Labour Party by the way).

Because whether people think Nazis were socialists or not is one of the heuristics I use to decide whether someone is detached from reality or not.

Because the ‘logic’ behind the name indicating they were means that North Korea should be considered a democracy given it’s name is the Democratic People's Republic of Korea.

It also indicates a complete lack of any understanding of modern European history.

I can only bow to your superior knowledge of history.

And of course we shouldn’t read too much into the names of political parties. After all the Conservatives haven’t been conservative for some time, the Liberal Democrats are neither liberal nor democratic, and the Labour Party represents people who don’t do any productive work. We are well used to the misnomers.

Bit embarrassing to have made the Nazis were Socialists statement though ain’t it

Which of the NSDAP’s policies between 1920 and 1945 do you deny were “socialist”?

Let’s start a specific thread of you want that kind of a discussion. Also if you search back through the forums you will find this has been previously been discussed at length and there is plenty of information to absorb.

Also reread my post further up. There were indeed some economic policies that in isolation can be classified as being socialist. However, any serious analysis understands that you need the full picture and wider political and contemporary context before you can even begin to attempt to label anything. Plucking a single policy(s) out and then with 21st century eyes and sensibilities saying “that looks socialist” is simply very silly and devoid of critical analysis.

I have no interest whatsoever in discussing this topic. The only people who want to discuss it are you and the other Labour supporter. And I very much doubt either of you have any significant expertise on the topic that would be worth listening to. If I want to learn about 1930’s Germany I’m sure there are better places to look than the politics forum of a swingers website. There is no shortage of books about the subject, many of which are sitting on my office shelves. I’m still wading through a 600 page biography of Himmler when I get the time.

I simply pointed out that the Labour Party has a history of anti semitism and the response of the Labour Party supporter was to start talking about Nazi Germany. I’ve no idea why. I can only assume it’s distraction and projection.

Do I bite or not hmmmmm?

And I very much doubt either of you have any significant expertise on the topic

Oh fuck it yeah why not…

I have a First Class Hons in European history 1850-1950 from one of the top three universities in the UK. Not going to say which one but let’s say the boat race was more fun when there was less shit in the water!

As for “the other Labour supporter” well I am not a Labour supporter. Just to be clear. But you went down the “Nazis were Socialists” route and it simply isn’t true no matter how many You Tube videos you watch or books you read by Frederich Hayek!

I didn’t go down the Nazis are Socialists route at all, that’s something you and the other Labour supporter are desperate to talk about, rather than Labour’s antisemitism problem.

It’s odd why Leftists appear to be so desperate to cleanse their ideology of any link to Hitler.

It really doesn’t matter, given that all the other mass murderers in recent times have all been socialists or communists. Maybe they think if they can at least disassociate themselves from one mass murderer their opinions can somehow become slightly less soiled.

Yeah but it went down like this…

Do you think the Nazis were socialists?

Well that’s what they called themselves.

Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei.

The clue might be in the name.

That looks like you went down the Nazis were Socialists route to me (annoying when the thread still has all the evidence to quote).

So now as I picked you up on that I’m a leftist! guess you don’t read what is being written (you don’t have to of course, may well be boring, but if you try to label people, at least get it right).

And having been completely debunked on the Nazis are Socialist thing you widen the goalposts to say yeah but look at these others!

Well duh! Yep guess what. Human beings are evil and most evil is undertaken by those at the extreme ends of the political spectrum. Stalin was a bastard! No argument there. So was Torquemada but that’s another version of extremism!

But unless you also conflate Socialism with Communism, then it is the latter who have been utter assholes and killed millions (oh and let’s not get into that branding discussion again, I know it was the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics).

Hysterical.

1. Person A raises fact of Labour having history of antisemitism

2. Person B tries to create distraction by talking about Nazi Germany

3. Person C sends dozens of posts about Nazi Germany and demanding that everyone else stops talking about Nazi Germany

Firstly are you suggesting that Reform aren't full of people like this? If that's the case the burden of proof is on you.

If someone claims the moon is made of custard. Then demands you prove it's not. It's silly. The burden of proof is on the person making the outrageous claim.

But seeing as you asked nicely. Leslie Lilley is Facebook friends with Gary Raikes. How many reform candidates are friends with Gary. 41.

It’s interesting how people seem to be under the impression that Reform is a party that will reform politics for the benefit of society.

They chose the name specifically to make you believe they were going to make things better by reforming politics.

If you read the comic that’s their manifesto it’s full of rhetoric promises and innuendo without any real factual basis.

The aims of Reform are to emulate Singapore the booming offshore economy . Be careful what you wish for as according to Statistica around 44% of Singapore population will be living on less than $7 dollars a day.

Reform has four very quiet lines around cutting red tape relating to employment law. That “Red tape” will be employee protections to make it easier to hire and fire with less protections on holidays etc.

Remember Farage is a devotee of Trump the same man who slashed the wealthy’s tax burden in America but hates unions and employee protections. He is quoted as saying he wants people to fight for work. Nice guy.

Do not trust the name as being what they represent. It was chosen for a good reason . Oh and it’s still a Ltd company so still refuses to disclose some of its backers. Why?

Interesting link below to give a little insight. Remember they say it’s a party for the people so why are so many very rich elites getting involved? They don’t part with this sort of cash for the good of others.

https://bylinetimes.com/2024/01/18/reform-uk-limited-the-political-business-brought-to-you-by-billionaires/

I agree with others that PR is long overdue to truly reflect the nation. It will make everyone’s vote count and hopefully create a parliament with a longer term view of policies through collaboration not division.
