Dear John,

This week on Ugly Politix ([link removed]) , we delved into something darker - and sadly, far more familiar - in British politics: Nigel Farage’s racist abuse, and why none of us should be shocked anymore.

The piece breaks down what happened, but more importantly, why it lands the way it does.

Farage has built his entire public persona on boundary-pushing bigotry dressed up as “straight talking”, and the media ecosystem around him rewards every escalation. It’s not an accident, it’s not a slip, it’s the strategy.

Matt Gallagher also gets into the bigger danger here, how the Overton window keeps shifting every time figures like Nigel Farage test the line and face no consequences.

When the bar drops, it drops for everyone. Minority communities feel it first, and then the entire political conversation follows.

Give it a read, and let us know your thoughts in the comments:

All the best,
