Another Reform candidate has praised Enoch Powell

On 4 April, we reported that a Reform UK candidate was exposed for posting positively about Enoch Powell. That candidate was Brett Muscroft, and we’ve since learned he isn’t the only Powell fanboy that Reform are set to run in the upcoming local elections:

Oh, and Tabor is also a fan of Oswald Mosley.

British fascists

Enoch Powell is the ex-Tory MP who delivered the notorious Rivers of Blood speech, in which he warned that migration would lead to death and mayhem. Of course, you could see why a Tory at the arse end of Empire would think this, because whenever Britain colonised a country, bloodshed inevitably followed. There’s a difference between what the Empire did, however, and with a normal family moving here to get working class jobs in the care and service sectors — the state of affairs that the government encouraged to keep our economy moving.

The Tories ended up sacking Powell for his speech, anyway. As we covered, Nigel Farage would seek Powell’s endorsement in in the 1990s, and also asked him to run for his UKIP party. As such, it’s no surprise that Reform UK candidates would also admire the man.

If you’re unfamiliar with Oswald Mosley, meanwhile, the BBC described him as follows:

During the 1930s Mosley led Britain’s virulently anti-Semitic fascist movement, whose streetfighters – known as blackshirts – were notorious for their violence against Jews and left-wing opponents. He was on friendly terms with Mussolini. And Hitler was guest of honour at his second wedding.

Oh, and that wedding took place at the home of Nazi Propaganda Minister Joseph Goebbels.

In other words, Mosley was the British fascist who failed to achieve what his buddies Hitler and Mussolini did.

And that’s who Reform’s candidate admires.

An English fucking Nazi.

Arnold Tabor

On to the candidate at hand, Hope not Hate reported:

Tabor keeps a low public profile. But his YouTube comments tell you plenty.

Posting as “Fluffy McSpankins”, he’s called for migrant boats to be attacked at sea and covered up, saying the UK should “sink the boats” and “show we are heartless”.

Tabor also has a plan for the migrants who do make it to the UK, a “huge walled workhouse city” with “no pay only a roof over their head and 2 meals a day”, conditions that sound a lot like slavery in the 1800s.

This is the Empire mindset we were talking about. Or the last paragraph is, anyway. For all their many, many faults, we don’t think Mosley or Powell would have identified themselves as “Fluffy McSpankins”.

Praising Hungary’s authoritarian Viktor Orbán, McSpankins said:

It’s unclear if he wants someone like Mosley or Powell, or if he wants some sort of mutant combination of the two.

Hmm — a politician who’s both a wannabe authoritarian and a failed Tory — who does that sound like?

Oh yes, that’s right, isn’t it — Farage was a Tory himself up until the 90s.

Reform — Rivers of turds

As we’ve reported, Reform’s local election campaign has turned into an absolute shitshow:

And as Hope not Hate signed off:

At this point, it seems that Reform have given up on vetting their candidates; that or they’ll take whoever they can get. It’s a grim state of affairs if it’s the latter, because it means the party is openly tolerant of British fascism within its ranks now.
