   @ApostateEnglishman I genuinely believe that the biggest political mistake the UK has ever made was to reject proportional representation. The current system makes coalition almost impossible and helps to sustain the two party system. People are fed up with the status quo and in these cases, they will always choose the easy option which is far right populism. It doesn't help that Labour is left wing only in name.

     What's so disgraceful about the conduct of the tankies on Saturday is that we're facing an existential threat to our democracy. It's never been in good shape, but that's no reason to allow it to become even worse.

     Nigel Farage is a fascist who leads a fascist party. Now is not the time for the left to be fighting each other.

     Aral Balkan repeated this.
