Jenrick on #r4today trying to downplay the raging racism of Reform… by saying “Farage has done more than anyone else to stand up against racism and the far right”. Farage the schoolboy Nazi. Farage the ‘breaking point’ Brexiter. Farage the mass-deportations champion. Farage the far right racist.

Henning Rosenbusch denied that there were mob hunts in Chemnitz, a "storming of the Reichstag," a "Reich citizen coup," or plans for deportations in Potsdam.

He wrote that repeated rumors had replaced hard facts in the meantime. As a recent example, he mentioned the SPD's attacks on the Union regarding their supposedly "inhuman" attack on Bärbel Bas. https://t.co/bPWinpga78 #Politik #Fakten #Gerüchte (translated)
