There's not much more historic than North Elham. Seat of the the North Folk's first bishop.

Where abouts? If you're into history there are not many better counties in England. Not just Nelson but loads of medieval stuff.

UKIP / Farage too

Always enjoy the bumblebee yellow kits and 90s haircuts too

Romania are usually worth a watch. Always contribute some worldies.

same lack of critical thinking amongst the general population

Cheering on Portugal because of England's participation in the transatlantic slave trade.

I bought one a couple of years ago and have never read it. Think it's Sword of Albion. You can have it if you want, brand new and unread. The most important thing about Nelson of course is that he was Norfolk man, and gloried in being so

The whole past decade has been politicians making things worse and then promising the solutions to the things they made worse.

Almost every day on twitter now you see stuff that is scarily wrong and hate-filled getting 10s and sometimes 100s of thousands of likes so tbf you're probably right.

He's not really a good orator. His arguments are incredibly easy to debunk and when you do that he flounders badly, as we sometimes see when he speaks with members of the public on the radio. Just for some reason our media class are mostly incapable of doing that.

But the people who buy into Farage's stuff are often older and so probably use social media less. I'm not sure how much to blame social media is. People here aren't that clued up on politics and the economy and plus I think that spoilt boomers' cognitive dissonance stops them from acknowledging the role austerity and Brexit have played in the current shit show. Easier to blame someone else. If anything social media has been quite useful at opening people's eyes to how bad the situation here is at the moment.

Interesting how little Brexit is spoken about. Even to Farage, even in the context of the increase in immigration.

Also dressed quite typically for Great Yarmouth of that time.

oops

If you zoom in you can just see 'Great Yarmouth'

Going to wear your 2000-01 Muzzy Izzet shirt to the game?

I think people overestimate Farage and Reform. He's a not too bright, America-brained saloon bar bore who is popular amongst people who see themselves in him. Even if he got in, which he won't, it would be like Brexit - not fascism but more economic decline that quickly becomes unpopular.
