" is a form of far right authoritarian ultranationalism characterised by dictatorial power forcible suppression of opposition and strong regimentation of society and the economy " any party spring to mind ?
That description sounds more like Communism to me, especially the regimes of Stallin, Chairman Mao etc.

Farage is the modern day Oswald Moseley, and the club have given him free rein to associate them with him. It's beyond stomach churning.

Because, whether you like it or not, farage is a racist. Give your head a wobble for christ sake
I do not agree that Farage is a racist. I don't believe Corbyn is a racist even though the party he leads is riddled with it. Calling people racist at every opportunity is silly.

Fascism isn’t communism. That’s quite clear. Mao and Stalin also quite different. Please read a book.

Anyone could see from a mile off that allowing the Brexit Party to hold an event at our football stadium was a terrible decision. Who could really be so naive as to think they wouldn’t use their choice of venue and leach on to the club for their own political gains??
A truly terrible decision by the club, whether they endorse it or not, they let it happen. End of.
And now what do we have? A divided fan base and personally speaking, a sick feeling in my stomach.
We already know the club doesn’t care much for its fans, but did they bother to think about how our playing staff and management team might think about all this? And how this might affect further recruitment? Might sound a bit OTT, but there’s no saying how some people might react to the picture.
What about the Town fans who support the Brexit party? Don't they have a choice?

If the Labour party is riddled with racists, what does that make the Tories? https://www.jewishvoiceforlabo.....epresented-groups-2/Of course there will be some racists in a party with so many members. Just a reflection of society. However, the left-wing parties have a lot fewer racists in them than the right-wing parties. There was a survey the other year (possibly an Ashcroft poll?) which indicated this clearly. Don't have time to search for it now, however.

Ah the old anti-Semitism line which has surprisingly little evidence despite the fact they're "riddled" with it. Good job Nigel himself would never express any anti-semitic sentiments on national radio. https://jewishnews.timesofisrael.com/nigel-farage-urged-to-apologise-for-jewish-lobby-remark/

Hi ginny. Appreciate your feelings for the club, but can you please continue to post your views on the fishy. You haven’t done so very often lately and I for one miss your balanced and intelligent arguements.
Thanks for that but there's not really much to say that hasn't been said repeatedly for years. The football at BP is as dull as ever and i'm taking a break from it to do other stuff on a weekend that's more enjoyable and rewarding. I still read the fishy but don't feel i have much to contribute as i haven't seen a single game this season, which is the first time in 48 seasons that i have had a prolonged absence from the ground by choice. Sad thing is that i don't miss it at all.
