He has been courting support from the world's powerful billionaires who have money and control of the mass online media, printed and TV news.
When the American megalomaniac Elon Musk falsely accused the UK Prime Minister as "complicit in the rape of Britain", the self-proclaimed English nationalist Farage supported him.
Farage's political gamble backfired. But in this polarised country operating in a polarised world fast descending into deeper strife and open conflict, there is oxygen for extreme views.
Musk's support for the fascists' pin-up boy, Tommy Robinson, leaves little doubt that he wants Reform UK transformed into an openly neo-Nazi party akin to the AfD in Germany.
So where is the opposition? Starmer is seeking to appease Trump and court Farage. When Farage says "forcibly deport more refugees", Starmer boasts he is and will do even more.
Any decent person should damn this racist scapegoating and shout from the rooftops that the UK depends upon migrant labour and we uphold the human rights of asylum seekers to sanctuary here.
