The entire thing reeks of bannon's playbook. The guys an absolute cancer on politics today.... which is rapidly spreading from the US to Europe.
The tragic death of Jo Cox being a prime example.

Aye! I thought Nicola Sturgeon was absolutely right to remove herself from an upcoming bbc debate when she found out that this "hate generator", Bannon, was to be in the debate as well. I still question the moral judgement of the bbc in even considering this kinda invitation TBH! Of course, as usual, Nicola being criticised in some quarters(right wing?) for being a "coward" and ignoring the freedom of speech doctrine!? IMO total bullshit as the whole liberal ethos of "freedom of speech" has been manipulated and used to gain that "platform of hate" under that FOS banner. Sturgeon rightly following a moral principle in not sitting alongside a poisonous creton like Bannon who "talks a good game" (remember the likeable Nigel Farage eh!?) and is trying so hard to normalise his "hate philosophy" and "spread the word" to other folk who either implicitly or explicitly share this kinda "hate poison".
I've attached a recent bbc report re racial abuse experienced by Dion Dublin in Derby of all places! IMO it's relevant to the same poisonous shit that Bannon preaches to people like this ignoramus of a racist woman and sadly there are many like her that he knowingly "preys on" here and in the USA! We must strongly challenge this practise!

The attempted bomber has been found and is to be charged. He faces 58 years in prison.
He is, as expected, a Trump supporter. Republican heads are currently exploding.

The desperation against Robert Mueller has gone up a level:

This is no surprise to me and, I'm sure, many millions of other observers. We are looking at an insidious group of people who will try to eradicate any kinda threat to the existence of Trump as a US President. Lets hope Robert Mueller just continues with his own ongoing investigation into the whole election campaign history of Trump and his campaign team.

I’m eager to see how Trump will act with Saudi Arabia if it comes out that Khashoggi’s murder was given the ok by people high up the Government.
He will denounce any intel that says that as fake news. There is no way the Saudis will ever admit to this, and while they stay firm on their story that they were not involved, he will support them - as virtually every other US President has done. If we ever find out what happened and who did what, Trump will denounce those people individually and not the regime as a whole.

Turkey/Erdogan slowly "dripfeeding" the relevant info of what really happened to Kashoggi. The poor man has been ambushed as soon as he entered the Saudi Embassy and garroted from the rear,
a shocker!

And you will hear various countries condemn this abhorrent event, they will make some demands of the Saudis, that may or not be met, but ultimately when the Saudi Government blame this on rogue elements performing unauthorized actions they will likely fall in line with that story. We will likely then see "arrests" of individuals but being Saudi Arabia, rather than a public trial and conviction, they will just disappear.
The reality of this is most Western governments are saying in their heads "there but for the grace of God go I" because there isn't likely any of them that have clean hands when it comes to this sort of activity in some form or other.

Trump's latest campaign ploy re "big bad immigration and the huge threat to the American nation" really is straight out any demagogue's political handbook and it is sickening to listen to this shit and realise that it is likely that a huge swathe of American voters in these mid-term elections are gonna be duped again to possibly "swing it" in Trump's favour. This will present a huge tragedy and a massive failure on the part of the Democrats if my worst fears actually materialise - no hope for the future and just "throw in the towel"!!!

And Trump's "follow on" is to target Iran!!! Good timing by this lunatic US President eh! I wonder if our "puppy dog" British govt will endorse this shit as well!! Lets just ignore Saudi and Israel's misdemeanours while we are at it it! (sic)

Saturday Night Live is at it again and this time the target is Laura Ingraham and Fox News for their pathetic coverage of the “Caravan” that is hundreds of miles away and might not even reach the border in it’s current numbers.
Armed Militia groups are on their way to the border. I fear that there will be casualties at the border if the “Caravan” arrives.

There’s also this SNL sketch about Sarah Huckabee Sanders.
