I’m anti-racist, anti-discrimination, pro Green, mostly. Progressive in many aspects. But I don’t subscribe to at least part of the “Woke” ideology as manifested in the 2020s.

I don't agree with, for example, the song Fairytale Of New York sung by the Pogues being taken off the radio after being a loved Christmas classic for so many years because it apparently is offensive to gay people. I don't like that song myself as I find it depressing but a lot of people love it an... |

Surprizingly, when Nigel Farrage was head of the Brexit Party, they had more actual votes than Labour or the Conservatives BUT as they did not have enough seats they did not get into power In the 2019 election the Brexit Party received just 644 thousand votes across the whole country.

Never seen a Party so far ahead in the polls as Labour are right now It'll certainly tighten nearer election time as the media all pile in behind the Tories and disgraceful stories start being run.
