Breaking Point

Since the membership of the United Kingdom Independence Party is not generally given to hysteria except when the non-natives are restless, we must take with all due solemnity the disturbing allegation that this most salubrious of political movements is under threat of turning into a mere racist joke party under the leadership of a notorious racist. Of course, the poor things have never really been the same since losing their shrewder representatives to the racist joke party which that great reconciler Theresa May is now attempting to hold together by sheer force of personality. Still, even among the gammon at its most thoroughly broiled one would have thought that the glory years under the strutting racist Caudillo and the cheap comedy sequel starring the racist Paul Nuttall, followed by a bit of in-fighting under the racist Henry Bolton and the present doldrums under the racist Gerard Batten, might have made for a bit of a hint at the slightest whiff of a subtly discernible trend. But it was not to be; and now, alas, things look as if they might finally turn nasty.
