This Financial Times header Proves Mainstream Media's full Disconnect From Real People…

Authored by Steve Watson via Modernity.news,

Following massive local election gains for Reform UK, the populist Party headed by Nigel Farage, the legacy media revealed just how completely out of touch with British people it is.

Here is the headline the Financial Times published.

An unwelcome surge of rightwing populism in Britain https://t.co/Dow38Svpf3

Yeah, they seemed pretty welcome, given how much they trounced everyone else in democratic elections, winning 677 seats out of around 1,600 being contested.

“Unwelcome at our dinner parties”*

The Conservatives lost a whopping 676 seats, one less than Reform gained, while Labour, the Party that won a general election LAST YEAR, won just 99 seats and lost more than 180.

It’s pretty clear that Reform UK was “welcome” as far as voters were concerned.

Unwelcome? Says who? It’s not evil to think that your countrymen should be the first priority of your country.

Nevertheless, the FT described the monumental victory as a “populist-nationalist bug” adding that Reform found just the right “blend of far-right anti-immigration and anti-net zero stances,” to give “both main parties a drubbing.

Are you sure it’s unwelcome?

The media, like Kier Starmer, can bandy around the pejorative term ‘far right’ all they want, the fact is it’s clear a majority of people in a Britain are now acutely aware that mass uncontrolled and incentivised immigration is degrading quality of life throughout the country.

The mainstream media elites can’t hide their disdain for ordinary people

Instead of trying to understand their concerns they write them off with derogatories like “right-wing populism”.

From collapsing metropolises to quiet country villages. No where is exempt from its reach.

Funny isn’t it that when the side the establishment media falls on wins big, it’s championed as ‘the will of the people’ but when the other side wins it’s some sort of ‘unwelcome’ anomaly.

Maybe it has something to do with all the unwelcome immigrants.

Unwelcome to far Left busybodies who demand total control.

There’s a simple fix to this populism ‘bug’.

If you don’t like populism, stop being communists. https://t.co/dMD5MO54W0
