Lord Victor Bezerk #FBPE

Lady in stripes, "What about the troubles inside our own country?" "It was Nigel Farage who responded to misinformation about stabbings by saying that people should respond with cold hard rage" "There were race riots in 2024, I had black and brown friends who were scared to leave the house" "And there was a massive racial bias with Brexit pushing people to vote in certain ways" Fiona Bruce, "And when it comes to freedom of movement with the EU would you welcome that?" Lady in stripes, "I would welcome Freedom of Movement. I was only 16 when the vote happened" "Many adults I spoke to voted for Brexit and then regretted it because they voted on it based on lies" "There was also the Cambridge Analytica scandal" "I'm firmly of the belief that the Brexit vote was not democratic and that we should have another referendum" My view: She is right to challenge the idea that Britain’s problems begin at its borders. The rhetoric used by politicians at home has consequences too. When false claims about violence are amplified and people are urged to channel their anger, the damage does not stop when the headlines move on. The 2024 riots left many people frightened in their own communities, including people who felt targeted because of their race. Her argument about Brexit also deserves to be heard. A generation too young to vote has lived with the consequences, while many people who did vote later said they regretted it. The Cambridge Analytica scandal raised further questions about how personal data was used in the campaign. That alone does not prove the result was changed, but it deepened public concern about the way the debate was conducted. If the case for Brexit still stands, let the public judge it again—with the consequences visible and the facts in front of them.
