It was a pretty impressive campaign from @hopenothate. Very targeted, very focused, designed to prevent a criminal extremist getting elected. And it worked. #EUelections2019
Carl Benjamin did enormous damage to UKIP, as did Gerard Batten and his Muslim obsessions and cosying up to extremists. They paid the price too.
Notably Farage didn’t have to talk immigration much this time, but he has an open door - ‘Brexit, betrayal etc’ - notably light on detail (no policies) and still less overall than all the pro-Remain parties. Let’s see where things go now...

Are we winning the battle against extremism? Or are we losing it? That's the BIG question posed by the new @hopenothate magazine, out later this week.
hopenothate.org.uk/magazine/extre…
It's the latest in the revamped editions of @hopenothate magazine, each one asking major themed 'questions' (fear & lies during the pandemic, post-Brexit Britain, and climate scepticism & denial meets the far right) 👇

How should we tackle the threat of rising extremism? Whether from rapidly spreading dangerous conspiracies such as QAnon or posed by teenage terror-advocating gangs using regular social media platforms? It's a question @lowles_nick and I ask.

So is the President going to finally throw in the towel and just join all the other far right folks on Gab?
This is what we’re dealing with 😲 / what the USA 🇺🇸 is dealing with
These really are incredible times, but for POTUS it all seems to be about some burn-bridges-at-all-costs desire to win re-election, while cops kill black Americans.

It’s been said before, but anyone else feel Rome end-days right now?

⚡️ The brand new #StateOfHate report analysing the far right threat is out tomorrow from @hopenothate

It paints a grim picture, ranging across global terror to the post-organisational far right.

Important work by @SimonMurdochHNH @JoeMulhall_ @lowles_nick @patrik_h @Rosiecarte
And @DdesimoneDaniel reports on calls by @hopenothate to ban the Nazi-Satanist group, the Order of Nine Angels.

Four teens linked to the group were jailed last year. Bizarrely, I once met the O9A’s leader, for my book ‘HOMELAND’.
