#NewspaperUSBrdshtNewYorkTimesJenniRussell "For years, Britain's inadequacies have been compensated for by its membership in the European Union. Now, they are about to become painfully apparent. ... Britain is not an economic powerhouse waiting to be liberated. We are a country of mediocre education and limited skills, whose preening vanity has prevented us from seeing our failings. Our membership in the European Union is not a set of restraints; it is what has been propping us up." https://www.nytimes.com/2017/07/28/opinion/dunkirk-christopher-nolan-brexit.html

Context JenniRussell "How I wish that Christopher Nolan's new film, 'Dunkirk,' had not been released at this moment in history. The reviewers have been near unanimous in their praise: searing, complex, uncompromising about the savagery of war and death. Yet the essential message of the film, with its narrative of heroic retreat in order to fight another day, cannot help but feed the national pride in Britain's capacity to triumph eventually, no matter what the odds. Nothing could be less helpful to our collective psyche as the country blunders toward Brexit. We hear much about American exceptionalism, but Britain feels it, too" (28 July 2017). #PhenomnBrexit #2017_Dunkirk

#NMAUSBSNewsElfyScott "Australia has also seen a number of anti-immigration marches in recent weeks. On Saturday, protesters marched in capital cities calling for an end to 'mass migration'. The lead organisers of that event posted a notice on their website distancing themselves from any connection with Tommy Robinson or his views. Two weeks earlier, there were the nationwide 'March for Australia' rallies, which were attended by members of the neo-Nazi National Socialist Network and allowed neo-Nazi leader Thomas Sewell to address crowds in Melbourne. The March for Australia rallies also received notable support from far-right figures, including Tommy Robinson and Elon Musk. ... Callum Jones, a political extremism researcher from Monash University, told SBS News grievances such as economic and social uncertainty play a role in political mobilisation for the far right and these groups capitalise on issues such as housing and the high cost of living to gain momentum. 'In the same way, we saw large-scale political mobilisation around the COVID-19 period where you had a lot of people turn out [to protests] because of perceived infringements on civil liberties and they were turning to protest things like mask mandates and vaccine mandates,' he said. Jones said far-right politics focus on grievances and perceptions around 'entitlements or privileges or access to resources that are being taken away' and 'certain groups are scapegoated as being the people who have taken away those previously accessible resources or privileges'." https://www.sbs.com.au/news/article/far-right-movements-australia-uk/qg4lpzb6n https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=byb0Xl0SpIA #CatchcryAussieAussieAussieOiOiOi ^[Wikipedia] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DikLFodkmY8 #EDUAUMonashUniversityCallumJones #EDUAUDeakinUniversityGregBarton #2025_MarchForAustralia #OrgSyndicateHateGroupAUNationalSocialistNetworkNSNThomasSewell ^{[Wikipedia] [Wikipedia]} #ToponymOceaniaAustraliaVICMelbourne #TheoryGrievancePolitics #PhenomnUncertainty #PhenomnVirusCOVID19Pandemic #CauseCivilLiberties #PhenomnMaskWearing #LiteralVaccineMandate #PhenomnMisdirectionScapegoating https://www.sbs.com.au/news/podcast/party-time

Meanwhile, a March for Australia planning chat for Melbourne leaked to this masthead is stacked with known NSN members. Some have bragged of turning a crowd with just a handful of men.

'Advance UK will actually drive change,' Musk claimed in his X post. Musk was replying to a post by Robinson in which he urged former Reform MP Rupert Lowe to join Advance after an earlier split with Farage. 'Unfortunately, the reality is that Farage will do almost nothing to protect Britain. That is obvious,' Musk said of Farage in an earlier post. Habib founded Advance UK in June of this year, following disagreements with Farage that led to his departure from Reform UK in December. Situated at the same end of the political spectrum as right-wing Reform, Advance advocates for the UK's 'Christian constitution,' freedom of speech and adherence to UK law.

Supplementary #MagazineNewStatesmanJuliaRampen ^[Muckrack] "By the time Robinson was released from prison in November 2014, a refugee crisis was engulfing Europe. Instead of returning to the streets of Britain, he travelled to Germany and sought to expand the country's anti-Islam movement, Pegida (Patriotic Europeans Against the Islamisation of the West). Next came Brexit, Donald Trump and a new term for a slippery, extremist ideology now dominating corners of the internet: the alt-right. Robinson spied an opportunity. He became a columnist for Canadian far-right website Rebel Media and cultivated a YouTube channel. Until being banned by Twitter earlier this year, he had 413,000 followers. ... But this was not the story the world heard. 'Reason *1776 for the original *Brexit. Don't let America follow in those footsteps,' tweeted Donald Trump Jr, the US president's eldest son, about the case. Conservative US radio host Rush Limbaugh acknowledged that Robinson had 'technically violated a judge's order', but told listeners that 'the real thing to take away from this story is that they categorise this guy as 'far right', which then permits them to spirit him away'. Australian supporters held rallies. In the UK, petitions to 'free Tommy Robinson' have attracted hundreds of thousands of signatures. 'I'm sick of being the silenced majority in my own country and I need people like Tommy to fight my corner,' one supporter wrote. On 9 June 2018, as many as 15,000 protesters gathered in central London under the *FreeTommy banner. To his supporters, Robinson is the victim of an oppressive state. Those watching the latest march felt differently; one described the mood to me as 'creepy and uncomfortable'. There is no doubt that, for many, it is Robinson the street fighter who most appeals. 'It is a class culture war,' Jonathan Rutherford, an academic and one of the leading Blue Labour thinkers, told me. Robinson the man, it seems, is less important than what he represents. 'Robinson is a tribune of that working-class white identity - although he'd probably not like the white identity bit,' said Rutherford. 'He's for them, and of them, and who else is?'" https://www.newstatesman.com/politics/2018/06/how-tommy-robinson-became-folk-hero-global-alt-right #2014_ #2015_EuropeanMigrantCrisis #OtheringHateIslamophobiaAntiMuslim #OrgSyndicateHateGroupDEPatriotischeEuropaerGegenDieIslamisierungDesAbendlandesPEGIDA ^[Wikipedia] https://www.dw.com/en/german-issues-in-a-nutshell-pegida/a-39124630 #PhenomnBrexit #IRLBusinesspersonDonaldTrumpJr #IRLShockJockRushLimbaugh #ToponymOceaniaAustralia #CatchcrySilentMajority #MetaphorWarfareHeroFolk #MetaphorMartyrFreeSpeech #CampaignHashtagFreeTommy #NewspaperUKBrdshtTheGuardianMarkTownsend https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2018/jul/29/tommy-robinson-far-right-resurgence-steve-bannon-us-support #IdentityClass #TheoryAffectiveResponseSecondClassCitizen #IRLScholarJonathanRutherford ^[Wikipedia] #AdvocacyUKBlueLabour ^[Wikipedia] #IdentityClassBlueCollarWhite

#WebsiteTheConversationEdHarrison, #WebsiteTheConversationOliviaBrown "Last September, Reform leader Nigel Farage dismissed a policy of mass deportations as a 'political impossibility'. Now, a year on, the party has pledged to deport up to 600,000 illegal migrants and retrospectively strip indefinite leave to remain from people already settled in the UK. This is a drastic lurch to the right, even for Reform. Only last year the party was saying it seeks to represent the 'silent majority' and keep out 'extremists'. In explaining this shift, Reform politicians would probably claim this is what the silent majority wants. They would point to a hardening of public opinion on illegal migration." https://theconversation.com/inside-the-far-right-social-media-ecosystem-normalising-extremist-ideas-in-uk-politics-266948 #CharacterisationBoriswave #IRLDogmatistConnorTomlinson ^[Wikipedia] #NewspaperUKBrdshtTheTelegraphStevenEdginton #OrgClassifPPUKTheBrexitPartyReformUK #MagazineUKTheSpectatorGusCarter "One of the striking aspects of the AfD's success in the German elections was the party's popularity among the young, especially men under 25: one in four voted for the hard-right movement.

Addendum the #ReasoningFallacyConfirmationBiasIToldYouSo #BehaviourSmugness tenor of this tweet strongly suggests a #OtheringCaricatureBrexitBrexiteer perspective. Put bluntly, who benefits from wishing ill of the EU? Such characterisation also evokes a metaphorical othering exemplified by the #PhenomnBrexit #CatchcryLoveEuropeButNotEU, where #ToponymEuropeUKEngland_ was (erroneously) understood to be separate from #ToponymEurope, creating a distinction (evoking #MetaphorSpatialTerritory_ symbolism) where #ToponymEuropeUKBritishIsles and #ToponymEuropeContinental are framed as being wholly distinct (and so incurring no impediment through their divorce). This reminds me of #IRLScholarGeorgeLakoff's #TheoryLinguisticsConceptualMetaphorCMT analysis as per: "Consider Brexit, which used the metaphor of 'entering' and 'leaving' the EU. There is a universal metaphor that states are locations in space: you can enter a state, be deep in some state, and come out that state. If you enter a café and then leave the café, you will be in the same location as before you entered. But that need not be true of states of being. But that was the metaphor used with Brexit; Britons believed that after leaving the EU, things would be as before when the entered the EU. They were wrong. Things changed radically while they were in the EU" (23 July 2016). http://george-lakoff.com/2016/07/23/understanding-trump-2/ #PoliticsNationalismRomantic

Yet, notwithstanding the gadgets -- the rockets and the robots and the Department of Government Efficiency Musketeers, carrying backpacks crammed with laptops, dreaming of replacing federal employees with large language models -- few figures in public life are more shackled to the past. On the day of Donald Trump's inauguration, Mr. Musk told a roaring, jubilant crowd that the election marked 'a fork in the road of human civilization.' He promised to 'take DOGE to Mars' and pledged to give Americans reasons to look 'forward to the future.' In 1932, when civilization stood at another fork in the road, the United States chose liberal democracy, and Franklin Roosevelt, who promised 'a new deal for the American people.' In his first 100 days, Mr. Roosevelt. signed 99 executive orders, and Congress passed more than 75 laws, beginning the work of rebuilding the country by establishing a series of government agencies to regulate the economy, provide jobs, aid the poor and construct public works. Mr. Musk is attempting to go back to that fork and choose a different path. Much of what he has sought to dismantle, from antipoverty programs to national parks, have their origins in the New Deal. Mr. Roosevelt's Works Progress Administration provided 8.5 million Americans with jobs; Mr. Musk has measured his achievement by the number of jobs he has eliminated." https://www.nytimes.com/2025/04/04/opinion/elon-musk-doge-technocracy.html #IRLEntrepreneurElonMusk #CharacterisationVisionaryFuturist #MetaphorWarfareHeroMusketeer #OrgClassifPPUSDemocraticPartyPOTUSFranklinDRooseveltFDR #IRLHistoricalFigureJoshuaHaldeman #PoliticsGovernanceTechnocracy #MetaphorDiseaseMindVirus #ToponymAmericaNorthUSCaliforniaNorthernSiliconValley #TauntPresumptionHubris #IRLEntrepreneurMarcAndreessen #TheoryFuturismFilippoTommasoMarinetti #PoliticsAuthoritarianismAutocracy https://www.nytimes.com/2021/11/04/opinion/elon-musk-capitalism.html #NarrativeUtopiaPlacelessness #IRLAuthorDouglasAdams #IRLAuthorHGWells #IRLAuthorIainBanks #WorksSeriesTheCulture #ToponymAfricaSouthernSouthAfrica #BrandAmazonJeffBezos #PowerControlSegregationApartheid #IRLAuthorNovelistUrsulaLeGuin #IRLAuthorVirginiaWoolf

#EDUCAUniversityOfOttawaRitaAbrahamsen, #EDUCAUniversityOfOttawaMichaelWilliams "Ahmari's essay on dystopia begins by observing that 'Those of us who inhabit the Very Online Right like to point out how this or that new social phenomenon resembles this or that dystopian fiction. ... these resemblances to fictional dystopias should arrest us' (Ahmari 2021). Then he asks, 'What if dystopia is already here? What if our territory already conforms to maps drawn long ago by science-fiction authors? Could it be that we have crossed the invisible frontier that divides an ordinary place, an ordinary topos, from a dystopian realm?' Indeed, Ahmari is effusive in lauding the ability of dystopian fiction to place issues of the day (such as 'cancel culture, woke-ism and gender ideology') within wider frameworks that 'uncover the deeper currents shaping our age.' He sees these contemporary phenomena as 'merely the acceleration of older and deeper processes of ideological transformation' that dystopian fiction can help expose." Abrahamsen, R. and M. C.

"Owens, Crowder and Shapiro have all been of great import to the Trump movement. Other figures include - but not limited to - Charlie Kirk, Jesse Kelly, Dan Bongino, Jack Posobiec, Dave Rubin, and even Trump himself. Other figures, such as Joe Rogan, Elon Musk and Tulsi Gabbard, though not of the Right ideologically, can be counted as fellow travelers. Just as how AM radio have been the medium of choice for tech-savvy conservatives during the years of Reagan and Bush, the Internet have been the broadcasting tool for the online Trump supporters. Conservatives' favorite punching bag have been the well-to-do elites from the coasts, who are seen as unattached to a locality. However, by using the Internet, the Very Online Right can broadcast their views from anywhere in the world." https://musicallyspeaking.substack.com/p/the-rise-of-the-very-online-right #IRLCommentatorCandaceOwens #VlogLouderWithCrowderLWCStevenCrowder #TalkbackRadioTheClayTravisAndBuckSextonShow #TalkbackRadioTheJesseKellyShow ^[Wikipedia] #NMUSFOXFNCDanBongino #NMUSOneAmericaNewsNetworkOANNJackPosobiec #VlogJoeRoganExperienceJRE #IRLEntrepreneurElonMusk #OrgClassifPPUSDemocraticPartyTulsiGabbard

#IRLAuthorPeterJukes "Viewed against that history, Musk's line about 'abolishing' the EU ^{[tweet] [jpeg]} is more than a libertarian thought experiment. It condenses the political slogans of Trumpism and Brexit into one sentence: the nation-state as the only legitimate unit of sovereignty; supranational institutions as inherently undemocratic; the EU as something done to people, not by them. Medvedev's one-word response - 'Exactly' - makes plain how neatly this dovetails with Moscow's long-term ambitions. As former president and now deputy chair of Russia's Security Council, he has become one of the regime's most aggressive public voices, regularly threatening Europe with escalation and calling for a remade world order. When he endorses the abolition of the EU, he is not being rhetorical; he is restating a core Kremlin objective that has underpinned years of covert finance, disinformation and interference. The screenshot collapses those agendas into a single image: a leading Russian official cheerleading the destruction of the EU, and a tech mogul with his hand on the levers of global speech amplifying the same idea." https://pdjukes.substack.com/p/musk-medvedev-and-the-long-war-on #OrgEU #OrgClassifPPRUSUnitedRussiaDmitryMedvedev ^[tweet] #PhenomnBrexit

#EDUUKUniversityOfGlasgowRebeccaHarrison "Since its rise to power, the First Order has obsessively undermined the ideologies of the former New Republic, which calls to mind Trump repealing Obama-era legislation in areas such as health and welfare. In spreading fear among citizens and dismantling liberal institutions, its leaders also resemble ordinary businessmen and politicians. Where, in The Force Awakens, Kylo harboured fantasies of being the next Darth Vader, here Snoke sneers that he should 'take that ridiculous' mask off. Facing Luke Skywalker in a duel, Kylo also removes his cloak. Dressed in a grey suit, he is less Darth Vader and more Donald Trump Jr. The First Order's arch enemy, General Leia Organa, meanwhile stands in for Hillary Clinton - another woman with too little support for her political agenda, with the air of a lost cause, whose loyalists happen to be much more ethnically diverse than their opponents. This latter difference is thrown into sharp relief when the white Captain Phasma attempts to destroy Finn and Rose, two Resistance fighters of colour, calling them 'scum'. Not overt racism, but reminiscent of a US administration that has advocated racist policies." https://theconversation.com/the-last-jedi-latest-star-wars-is-a-fable-for-our-post-truth-times-89256 #FictionalCharacterStarWarsDarthVader #FictionalCharacterStarWarsSupremeLeaderSnoke ^[Wikipedia] #IRLBusinesspersonDonaldTrumpJr #FictionalCharacterStarWarsPrincessLeia #OrgClassifPPUSDemocraticPartyHillaryClinton #FictionalCharacterStarWarsCaptainPhasma ^[Wikipedia] #FictionalCharacterStarWarsFinn ^[Wikipedia] #FictionalCharacterStarWarsRoseTico ^[Wikipedia]

Supplementary #AdvocacyEUSocialEuropeJustusSeuferle "Two competing ideas about the worker dominate contemporary discourse. The first--predominantly found in the United States--is cultural; the second, once prevalent in Europe, is material. The cultural definition, often reflected in self-identification surveys, hinges on the colour of one's collar. It distinguishes between blue-collar and white-collar workers--those who work with their hands versus those in bureaucratic or intellectual roles. Under this framework, even a small business owner can be considered a worker. The only criterion is a sense of cultural belonging tied to one's type of work. This vague and malleable definition leads to absurd outcomes: a brash, orange-hued billionaire with a neoliberal agenda can be hailed as the champion of the working class. In contrast, the European tradition has historically adhered to a materialist, Marxist perspective. A worker, in this view, is someone who owns nothing but their labour power and is therefore compelled into what Marx termed 'relations of production' with those who control the means of production. Marx described the worker as doubly free--free from external coercion to labour, yet also free from ownership of the resources necessary for survival. This condition creates structural dependency and limits individual freedom. By this definition, liberal democracy has yet to fulfil its promise of liberty for the working class. This framework does not rely on cultural identity or habits but on economic position. It sees the term 'worker' as a measure of dependence." https://www.socialeurope.eu/how-the-right-hijacked-the-working-class-for-culture-wars #ReasoningFallacyAppealToTraditionEverydayPeopleEveryman #TheoryMarxism #CatchcryIdentityPolitics #OrgClassifPPUSRepublicanPartyGOPPOTUSDonaldTrump #TauntOrangeManBad #IdentityClassBlueCollar #IdentityClassWhiteCollarMiddle #PoliticsCapitalismNeoliberalism #IRLSociologistPierreBourdieu

#WebsiteBylineTimes #IRLAuthorPeterJukes "Epstein was a regular visitor to the UK, even beyond his connections to Ghislaine Maxwell and Andrew Mountbatten, and he kept a keen eye on UK finances and politics. Across the recently released messages and emails, he treats Britain's vote to leave the European Union in June 2016 as both a political realignment and a trading opportunity - something to be shorted financially and leveraged geopolitically. As he writes to Peter Thiel about the chaos caused by the referendum, 'Brexit is just the beginning.' To that wider end, beyond his Silicon Valley and Russian manoeuvres, Epstein was devoting considerable time and intellectual capital to a major project led by the former head of the Trump Campaign, and White House chief of staff, Breitbart publisher and Cambridge Analytica co-founder, Steve Bannon, who had lost his job as White House Chief of Staff and was looking for a new role. He found it initially in a pan-European populist 'Movement', founded by Nigel Farage's partner Laure Ferrari and allies like People's Party leader Mischaël Modrikamen in 2017, and initially fronted by Bannon's close friend -- Nigel Farage himself. It was registered in Brussels with a mission to unite 'populist and conservative movements in Europe,' defending 'national sovereignty' and 'effective national borders'. Behind the scenes, Jeffrey Epstein emerged as Bannon's patron and strategist for the movement, providing financial advice on how to avoid financial scrutiny, offering transport and accommodation and introductions to key figures in Europe. Throughout the turbulent Brexit interregnum, as Theresa May's Government struggled to find a European exit which was acceptable to the Eurosceptic right, Bannon was flying into the UK, organising the opposition. In 2018, Bannon told Epstein he was meeting Boris Johnson, Nigel Farage and Jacob Rees-Mogg, to corral them to topple Theresa May. The author Michael Wolff wrote to Epstein that he was an intermediary with leadership challenger Boris Johnson." https://bylinetimes.com/2026/02/03/in-putins-orbit-the-crypto-politics-of-jeffrey-epstein-and-peter-thiel/ #IRLBusinesspersonJeffreyEpstein #IRLSocialiteGhislaineMaxwell #IRLFamilyRoyalUKAndrewMountbattenWindsorAKAHRHPrinceAndrew #PhenomnBrexit #OrgEU #2016_ #IRLEntrepreneurPeterThiel #PhenomnBrexitReferendum #ToponymAmericaNorthUSCaliforniaNorthernSiliconValley #NMUSBreitbart #IRLPoliticalStrategistSteveBannon #OrgClassifPPUKTheBrexitPartyReformUKNigelFarage #OrgClassifPPFRDeboutLaFranceDLFLaureFerrari ^[Wikipedia] #OrgClassifPPBEPartiPopulairePPMischaelModrikamen ^{[Wikipedia] [Wikipedia]} #PhenomnPopulism #PoliticsSovereignty #OrgClassifPPUKConservativePartyTheresaMay #PoliticsEuroscepticism ^[Wikipedia] #OrgClassifPPUKConservativePartyBorisJohnson #OrgClassifPPUKConservativePartyJacobReesMogg #IRLJournalistMichaelWolff ^{[Muckrack] [Wikipedia]}

Addendum The new Conservative digital campaigners, both New Zealanders in their 20s, also flew around the world to promote the interests of clients such as Glencore, one of the world's biggest miners, while concerns - which they strongly denied - were raised about some of their behaviour in the office. The pair's arrival comes after their success helping Australia's rightwing coalition unexpectedly win the country's general election, where they were praised by local media for their understanding of how to fight online campaigns. Purposefully low-quality memes based around popular shows such as Game of Thrones were used in a bid to drive interactions - good or bad - at any cost, on the basis that this would boost the reach of future Facebook posts. 'We'd make them really basic and deliberately lame because they'd get shares and lift our reach; that made our reach for the harder political messages higher,' an anonymous individual told the Sydney Morning Herald, dubbing the strategy 'boomer memes' as the content appealed to older audiences. In recent days, the Conservatives have begun purposefully posting badly-designed social media material, at one point urging MPs to back a Brexit deal using the often-derided Comic Sans font. The Tories' political opponents lined up to mock the image, inadvertently sending it viral and ensuring it was seen by a wider audience."https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2019/aug/01/revealed-johnson-allys-firm-secretly-ran-facebook-propaganda-network #BrandTophamGuerinTGSeanTopham and #BrandTophamGuerinTGBenGuerin #EpistemologyAmateurShittyMemes

#NewspaperUKBrdshtTheTelegraphEdwardMalnick "The advertising boycott of GB News shows Britain can no longer take basic democratic values for granted, the Culture Secretary has warned. Writing for The Telegraph, Oliver Dowden said a 'vocal Twitter minority' was targeting the 'free and diverse media' and the 'right to dissent'. The Cabinet minister pledged: 'We will not stand by and allow that to happen.' In an escalation of the Government's so-called 'war on woke', Mr Dowden insisted the fledgling centre-Right broadcaster is right to seek to 'empower' viewers who feel that their 'concerns have been unheard'. His intervention came after several companies withdrew advertising from GB News in its first week on air in the face of a 'stop funding hate' campaign. Mr Dowden said: 'When he launched the channel, veteran broadcaster Andrew Neil vowed that GB News would not be 'an echo chamber for the metropolitan mindset', and that it would 'empower those who feel their concerns have been unheard'. 'Rightly so. A free media is one that has a diverse range of opinions and voices.' Mr Dowden identified the protection of journalism and political opinions as 'the grounds of a functioning democracy', adding: 'Sadly, we can no longer take them for granted. 'Across the West, our values of tolerance and freedom of expression, for which previous generations have fought and died, increasingly risk being undermined by a small but vocal minority. For them, these are not absolute, but relative, concepts, ready to be bent to silence dissent from their world view.' In an interview with The Telegraph, Frank Luntz, the veteran US pollster behind use of 'climate change' instead of 'global warming' said he fears 'capitalism' is becoming a 'bad word' in Britain, and said he is seeking an alternative to the word." https://www.telegraph.co.uk/politics/2021/06/19/exclusive-gb-news-boycott-shows-cant-take-democratic-values/ #NMUKGBNews #OrgClassifPPUKConservativePartyOliverDowden #MetaphorSpatialEchoChamber #IRLPollsterFrankLuntz ^[Wikipedia] #PhenomnClimateChange #PhenomnClimateChangeGlobalWarming #PoliticsCapitalism

However, the public mood turned against them in the late 19th century. Criticism from newspapers and social critics began to find an audience.

#PoliticsNationalismBritishLion versus #OrgEU cat? as variation on the familiar #MetaphorVersusSheepLions i.e. overt #PoliticsNationalismBritish Note, 'English' and not 'British' as the Scots and Welsh tend to revere their own national symbol in preference for the Lion i.e. the Scottish 'thistle', the Welsh red dragon, leek and daffodil. Because Northern Ireland was only partitioned in the 20th Century, their national symbols tend to be those derived from their shared history ^[Wikipedia]

Much of the right-wing media has celebrated, with the Daily Mail dubbing those behind it an 'army of patriots.' While there is nothing wrong with flying the nation's flags, HOPE not hate can reveal that the key organisers behind much of this activism are hardened and extreme far-right activists. While many instances of flags being raised, or crosses being painted on roundabouts or walls, are being carried out by ordinary people inspired by posts on social media, the main organising force behind the campaign is 'Operation Raise the Colours'. HOPE not hate can reveal that the co-founder and organiser of the group is longtime Stephen Lennon (AKA Tommy Robinson) ally Andrew Currien (AKA Andy Saxon). Formerly a key member of the English Defence League's leadership bodyguard team, and now running security for the far-right party Britain First, Currien has previously been jailed for his part in a racist death." ^{[HOPE not hate]} #CampaignIdeologicalOperationRaiseTheColours ^{[Wikipedia] [skeet feed] [tweet feed]} #OrgSyndicateVigilanteUKRaiseTheColours ^[Wikipedia] #AdvocacyTurningPointTPUK #NewspaperUKTabloidTheDailyMail #PoliticsFascismNaziNeoFarRightAltRightRadicalRight #IRLIdeologueStephenYaxleyLennonAKATommyRobinson #IRLPrivateCitizenAndrewCurrienAKAAndySaxon #OrgClassifPPUKBritainFirst

At the height of tensions during the 2024 riots he announced to his 200 million X followers: 'Civil war is inevitable.' Addressing the protest organised by far-right activist Robinson in September, Musk again used inflammatory language: 'Whether you choose violence or not, violence is coming to you. You either fight back or you die, that's the truth.' ... While it was never perfect, X has become a pay-for-play playground for conspiracy theorists, racists, grifters and anyone else willing to buy a blue tick or boosted by Musk's algorithms because their message aligns with his dystopian worldview. Most of all, buying X gave Musk a huge foghorn that enables him to insert himself as the main character in any political conflict he chooses." https://observer.co.uk/news/opinion-and-ideas/article/elon-musk-wont-stop-its-time-the-british-government-got-off-x-for-good #IRLEntrepreneurElonMusk #BrandTechSocialMediaXFKATwitter #2024_UKFarRightProtests #MetaphorWarfareCivil #MetaphorDeceitDisingenuousGrift #NarrativeUtopiaDystopia

UKIP leader Nick Tenconi has also been seen in the camps targeting migrants. In one video, Tenconi is seen proclaiming: 'Northern France is now British territory!' Approaching a group in Calais, he shouted: 'You are not welcome in Britain', and asked if they were 'planning to come to Britain illegally.' Individuals acting alone have also been seen in the camps and on the beaches of northern France, including activists with large followings such as 'Ross the Don'.

Supplementary #AdvocacyIntlGreenpeaceUnearthedCrispinDowler "More than a quarter of the United Kingdom's fishing quota is in the hands of a tiny group of the country's wealthiest families, an Unearthed investigation has found. Just five families on the Sunday Times Rich List hold or control 29% of the UK's fishing quota. The finding comes from a new Unearthed investigation that traced the owners of more than 95% of UK quota holdings - including, for the first time, those of Scotland, the UK's biggest fishing nation. It reveals that more than two-thirds of the UK's fishing quota is controlled by just 25 businesses - and more than half of those are linked to one of the biggest criminal overfishing scams ever to reach the British courts." https://unearthed.greenpeace.org/2018/10/11/fishing-quota-uk-defra-michael-gove/#AdvocacyIntlGreenpeaceUnearthedGeorgieJohnson https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tg9Cwcn922I https://vimeo.com/294373200 #2018_ #OrgClassifPPUKConservativePartyMichaelGove #LiteralFoodProductionFishingQuota

Supplementary "Brexit is rooted in imperial nostalgia and myths of British exceptionalism, coming up as they have -- especially since 2008 -- against the reality that Britain is no longer a major world power... Those most under the spell of imperial nostalgia have now become the sorcerers themselves, having somehow managed to conjure up a mandate to transform Britain in their image." https://www.boell.de/en/2019/11/08/brexit-threat-human-rights-feminist-analysis #PleaNostalgiaImperial #PleaGlobalBritain

Supplementary #IRLScholarGeorgeLakoff "Consider Brexit, which used the metaphor of 'entering' and 'leaving' the EU. There is a universal metaphor that states are locations in space: you can enter a state, be deep in some state, and come out that state. If you enter a café and then leave the café , you will be in the same location as before you entered. But that need not be true of states of being. But that was the metaphor used with Brexit; Britons believed that after leaving the EU, things would be as before when the entered the EU. They were wrong. Things changed radically while they were in the EU." https://george-lakoff.com/2016/07/23/understanding-trump-2/ #TheoryLinguisticsConceptualMetaphorCMT

Addendum Additionally, much of the pro-Brexit campaigning employed a #MetaphorClosedSystem, where mythology around the #ToponymEuropeUKEngland_ being an island (and therefore separate and discrete) was leveraged.

"bilateral agreements with more than 100 countries to enhance 'connectivity' by building infrastructure projects and deepening economic ties. In the run-up to the event, many critics have highlighted the projects' negative impacts on host countries, such as debt traps, land seizures, corruption and environmental degradation. Some have pointed out the difficulties of establishing fair methods for resolving the many disputes that are arising between China and its new partners. A few have criticized the failure of certain projects to create adequate jobs for locals. But one group of victims is often overlooked: the Chinese workers dispatched overseas to build these projects. If discussed at all, these migrant workers are generally demonized as the infantry 'invading' the host country and 'stealing' local jobs. In reality, they are extremely vulnerable to exploitation by their employers, sometimes even more so than their local co-workers. The International Labor Organization reports that there are 14.2 million people in forced-labor situations worldwide and that indebted migrant workers are particularly vulnerable. Overseas Chinese workers are no exception. The recent federal criminal conviction of a Chinese construction firm executive for subjecting workers in New York to forced labor is a case in point. According to trial testimony, prior to leaving China, the workers signed contracts promising to not interact with locals, to not leave their residence without permission and to return to China after completing their multi-year assignment -- at which point the bulk of their salary would be paid. Each worker was required to post a security deposit of more than $20,000 [USD] to guarantee his compliance. Once in New York, workers' passports were seized and they were required to work long hours and live in unsafe conditions. Fear of losing their security deposit and not collecting their earned wages essentially handcuffed them from escaping this exploitation." #OrgIntlUNInternationalLabourOrganization #PowerControlForcedLabour

Addendum I wonder how much perspectives such as this are shaped (determined) by strategic efforts to undermine the neutrality of UK media - namely, the #NMUKBBC's mandate to report with impartiality and the limited opportunity for those with money to unduly influence public debate through privately sponsored television (as seems to be the case in the US). I'm thinking here specifically, of Vote Leave CEO, Matthew Elliott's criticism of the BBC here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i0xo8uDzi6Y&t=42m02s (42:02 - 43:10) Vote Leave CEO, Matthew Elliott speaking at the US Mackinac Center (5 May 2017) https://www.mackinac.org/23515

Addendum this comment reminds me of the classic sketch performed by #OrgUKMontyPythonJohnCleese, #IRLComedianRonnieBarker & #IRLComedianRonnieCorbett about the British class system: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W34CsPPw5uM&t=27s where in this case, those most critical of Brexit i.e. the "liberals with their Spanish Villas" / #IdentityClassWhiteCollarMiddle are framed as enemies of those who are (supposedly, unanimously) most in favour i.e. #IdentityClassBlueCollar + #IdentityClassRuling. One wonders though, who actually benefits most?

Supplementary "Yet conservative elitism has a problem: it assumes the existence of conservative elites. As the mainstream media, the bureaucracies, the universities, and even big business move leftward on a host of issues, this assumption is increasingly problematic. Conservative deference to contemporary elites can only lead to more conservative defeats. Conservative success often requires circumventing ordinary representative democracy, winning political victories via initiative and referendum processes at the state level." https://lawliberty.org/book-review/the-promise-of-populism/ #EDUUSArizonaStateUniversityDonaldCritchlow #MetaphorDeceitLugenpresseMainstreamMediaMSM #OtheringElitesConservative #MetaphorWarfareCultureLiberalEducation #TheoryPerformativeCorporateAllyship #PoliticsDemocracy #PoliticsReferenda #PhenomnPopulism

"BREXITERS are NOT xenophobes or racists but have constantly to fend off assertions by bitter Remainers. Our raison d'être is to be able to rule ourselves, our fishing grounds and our democracy with representatives who can easily be booted out. The EU project is staffed by unelecteds, is unaudited and is a bureaucratic nightmare of 28 nations with almost as many languages, controlled from within the Twin Towers of Brussels and Strasbourg. We reject open immigration and the influx of a culture so alien and destructive to our own. Skilled guys a credit to their origins and our great And sovereign country AND KEEPING US ALIVE!!
