| An American caller to LBC today 17:44 - Feb 2 with 524 views | johnlangy | The lady who rang LBC was an American of Indian descent. She said that she'd seen the way America was going and decided to migrate to the UK with her two young daughters (I didn't hear what year this was) because she was concerned for their welfare when they'd be older if they were brought up in America. She talked about a visit to America and was driving around with the person she was visiting. She said the streets were deserted and asked her friend why. The friend said that ICE were in town and everyone was staying indoors The friend talked about going on one of those 'NO KINGS' protests. A person that wanted to attend who was a government employee was advised not to go on the march because the government had 'spotters' out, the implication being that if he/she was seen to be on the march they'd be in trouble. The friend also said that because the American birth rate had fallen there was a push to persuade people to have more children. But just for white Americans to have more children. Bearing in mind that Nigel Farage has so much admiration for Donald Trump it would not be too much of a stretch of the imagination that if NF were to be elected to PM that he may well follow similar policies to DT. And with that thought in mind I hope that anyone considering voting Reform, whether in the Senedd election or in the next GE, should take all that on board and ask themselves if that is the kind of country they would wish to live in. |  | | |  |

I'm not assuming WR that Farage would follow Trump's policies but as he's such a fan of his way of governing it's reasonable to suggest to people that he may well do that. And that people should bear that in mind before deciding to vote for him. And I don't believe that giving people information to help them make up their mind on who they should vote for is scaremongering. To me it's a sensible thing to do. |  | |  |

Opinion, story and no evidence. It's the internet! |  |

| An American caller to LBC today on 18:34 - Feb 2 with 439 views | Joesus_Of_Narbereth | Without having the statistics to hand could the push to increase the birth rate amongst white Americans have anything to do with them having a historically much lower birth rate than black and Hispanic Americans? We have a similar situation in this country where the birth rates of BAME people and people on benefits is much much higher, whereas the working/middle class/career type people the birth rate has seemingly tanked. It may not be a racist policy as inferred, just an active attempt to encourage demographics who do currently have a lower birthrate to have more children? |  |

Providing information from an American lady who's been on the American streets very recently. So not my opinion, her facts. No evidence ? Read her facts. It's the internet ? Did you not read the post Jack ? It wasn't some nameless keyboard warrior spreading fiction, which appears to be what you're suggesting. An actual real person speaking on the radio giving her evidence as to what is going on in Trump's America. And what she said about ICE reinforces the reality of the dreadful scenes we've all seen recently showing how they operate. |  | |  |

They aren’t really facts, they are personal anecdotes at best. Not saying that it doesn’t reflect her personal experience, but facts are generally more quantifiable than “my mate went to the no kings protest and…” |  |

| An American caller to LBC today on 22:18 - Feb 2 with 210 views | Boundy | I’ve asked myself this far more important question , far more than worrying about what’s happening in the US, why not be more concerned about the direction this country is heading under this government with the insidious movement of no jury trials, arrest for voicing opinions on line, the deflection and reluctance to investigate child grooming gangs , tanking the economy by stupid policies designed to close the hospitality sector,removing our security by the sale of the Chagos isles and incredibly allowing China to build their new embassy dispite opposition from the security services. You seem to be scared of the impact that Reform will have on the political landscape and so any socialist left wing should be because change is desperately needed and the sooner the better, continue on the path we’re on currently and this country will be all destroyed socially, economically and culturally in just years. |  |

| Swansea Indepenent Poster Of The Year 2021. Dr P / Mart66 / Roathie / Parlay / E20/ Duffle was 2nd, but he is deluded and thinks in his little twisted brain that he won. Poor sod. We let him win this year, as he has cried for a whole year. His 14 usernames, bless his cotton socks.

| An American caller to LBC today on 23:07 - Feb 2 with 172 views | mangohilljack | I think you'll find the majority of the country would support a team like Ice on the streets of Britain rounding up illegal immigrants and deporting them. Not a tough choice really (unless you're a far left numpty) A team like ice cleaning up the streets or 100's of illegal immigrants murdering, raping and stealing their way through the country. There would only ever be one choice for those who want a free and safe country for women and children to go about their daily lives. [Post edited 2 Feb 23:08]

Another clutching at name calling , are you proud to be a labour supporter right now ? Myself I’ve always as my parents been labour supporters but no more , like the Tory’s their race is run the people have had enough of this brand of politics and the sooner they’re beaten because the party of the working man is no more. |  |

| An American caller to LBC today on 00:04 - Feb 3 with 125 views | Dr_Winston | I don't much like Farage. As a general rule I think he's full of shit. I've got more time for Badenoch, but the Tories have badly let themselves down in recent years by going along with the Blairite nonsense. They've got a long way to go before they've earned my vote. Starmer is scum. In any just World he'd be facing jail time after his spell in office. |  |

| An American caller to LBC today on 02:36 - Feb 3 with 93 views | AnotherJohn | John seems to have been trying to breath life into the Labour corpse in a couple of his recent threads, and I guess we can understand his anxiety about what may happen in May. It is just that in a week where news of serious corruption at the heart of the Brown Government has hit the headlines, the timing isn't ideal. |  | |  |
