The party has a record number of 72 seats, the result of tactical anti-Tory voting and a focus on winnable seats in the former “Blue Wall” at the last election. By refusing to attend the Trump banquet too, their affable, prankish leader Ed Davey showed his mettle.
The right came first for undocumented migrants. Farage now promises/threatens to make legal, settled immigrants reapply for visas. Repatriation of most “outsiders” is the goal. That could mean your colleagues, neighbours, your children’s friends, the newsagent and GP. After that, they could turn on feminists, pro-abortionists, human rights activists, journalists, TV presenters, academics and freethinkers.
This weekend we went to one birthday party for a dear friend who used to present children’s programmes, and another for a friend who is a reputable economist. At both celebrations, conversations turned to the far right, Trump’s visit and racist ideologues. A female Asian guest and her daughter got caught up in the march led by Tommy Robinson. They were terrified, and the spinning of what she witnessed as a cry of dispossessed people has only added to that panic.
Today, the big breach in this country is not between the right and left, but between the lefties, centrists and mainstream right-wingers for whom the principles of liberal democracy and international law are sacrosanct, and those who are trashing that heritage by embracing Robinson and Farage.
Reassuringly, prominent British liberals of varying political attachments are awake to the dangers. Max Hastings, the erstwhile editor of The Telegraph, joined anti-Trump protestors last week. He explained why on Radio 4’s Today programme. Trump, he said, is desecrating democracy, and was invited “in the hope that the crocodile will eat us last”.

When bullies use the dark arts and lies to take over and turn the country into a riven, disunited kingdom, liberals don’t have to play nicely. We must speak up, talk back. Journalists must properly scrutinise Farage and co. I’ve been on programmes with him. It’s not that hard. He does not stay suave and controlled when you treat him with contempt.
Every vote for Reform takes us closer to a Trumpian future. Millions of Britons dread what’s coming. Do what you can to stop Reform. Before it is too late.
