Anti-Cancel Culture Conference Featuring Nigel Farage Has Been Cancelled

  1. Cancelled because they’ve only sold 400 tickets; that really is cancel culture, people should be forced to go.

  2. If you put Farage on the bill, it’s clearly not going to be serious discussion of cancel culture, just a hard-right rally.

    You can be against Twitter witch hunts without being pro-arsehole.

  3. Started seeing billboard ads for GB News around my way recently, they’re really trying their best to act like anyone continues to give a shit. I think their slogan was something daft like ‘GB News, not PC news’.

    400 tickets sold out of 3000 seats and the channel’s viewership evaporated after just a few weeks, really warms the heart to hear it’s all going so wrong for them.

  4. well, I’m afraid what we got was Nigel … I don’t want to be rude but,really, you have the charisma of a damp rag and the appearance of a low-grade LME Broker and the question I want to ask is: ‘Who are you?

  5. I love the fact they’re trying to change behaviours that are older than humanity. It’s a nobel if futile gesture. Next week, Farage tries to hold back the tide.

  6. Proves really that despite a lot of people being rather vocal about (PC gone mad / cancel culture / being woke / whatever buzzword is in this week) it really is just ranting. They don’t actually care enough to attend anything in real life associated with it. You see it with attendance for all sorts of right wing marches or events. They can still revel in their misery though as they can claim leftists or Political Correctness itself has affected attendance.

  7. Who the fuck does Laurence Fox think he is? The entitlement of the over-achieving beaut.

    He’s had something of an acting career and got together with a pop star. This is the best version of any universe he could possibly be in.

    If you want to be less ‘cancelled’, Lozza, maybe take some acting lessons and stop making people think you’re a twat every time you open your gob.

  8. Great, funny, but it doesn’t half give them some fodder.

    Also just look at that artwork on Nige’s tweet. Jesus Christ it looks like it’s pulled straight out of a nazi propaganda poster.

  9. Cancel culture *is* a concern, but when Farage and his Legion of The Dense use the phrase they’re not actually referring to cancel culture.
    They’re referring to attempts to make society less racist or sexist or, in fact, any progressive step to curb bigotry and hate.

  10. I hate Nigel “the fascist” Farage. He’s not even a real fascist! If he was a real fascist and someone went “do you know there’s a fascist who’s unveiled a horrible racist poster in his campaign for Brexit, and supported the IRA on Cameo, admittedly with a glazed expression” you’d go “oh that’s a good fascist.” But he isn’t even a fascist. He’s not a fascist. He’s worse than a fascist, he’s nothing!

    He’s nothing! He’s like a horrible little shit weasel kid at school, hanging around with all the bullies, laughing at their jokes in the hope they won’t pick on him. He’s a horrible little shit weasel piece of shit nothing, hanging around with the bullies, laughing at their jokes, Vladimir Putin-funded apologist for institutionalised racism and I hate him.

  11. No one cares anymore, christ the government tuckered everyone out by dragging on brexit for so long and now we have a pandemic

  12. I’m picturing Farage and all of his Brexit MEPs with their backs turned to the EU parliament. That to me is an image of someone who doesn’t want their voice heard anyway, or at the very least dodnt want the voices of his constituents to be heard.

  13. Surely wins the award for most repulsive European nationalist leader. And yet little England loves the lying frog faced fuck.

  14. Unimportant and unrelated: I do not know this man (I’m a bit underinformed), but he looks like an absolute, slimey, nasty snake.

  15. I read somewhere that the venue they decided to book for the event is a covid-safe venue, so only ranty rabid Farage fans who are also **not ranty rabid antivax/qanon/antimask types** could attend.

    *Right wing nutters who believe in vaccines and masks* were the only viable ticket-buyers thanks to a choice Farage’s team made.

  16. >3,000 venue – just 400 tickets to the event were sold.

    Torn here. Happy that only 400 were sold, but unhappy that 400 sad souls paid money hear that Frog-faced-fecker Farage speak dribble.

  17. Wow, it’s almost like outside of the internet most people don’t care that much about this sort of thing and a lot of the online noise about PC culture in the UK isn’t from people actually in the UK.
