The good folks at ‘Reform Party UK Exposed’ seem to have caught GB News in the act:
GBNews speaking to “random residents”.
Only he’s actually a Reform UK councillor (Kieran Mishchuk, representing 20 mins down the road) being platformed like they’re a random resident.
No one has a problem with the flag, give it a rest.
It doesn’t belong to Reform UK and… https://t.co/gihgI4tlQr pic.twitter.com/7HuFbTWxMl

This is either a wild accident or the most staged interview of all time.
Flagaganda
In the video above, GB News host Patrick Christys puts the following question to incognito councillor Kieran Mishchuk:
Now, some people are saying, aren’t they, and this is why there’s these flag wars, which is that, oh, gosh, it’s all prejudice, it’s all really… there’s an undercurrent of racism, etc. What would you say to that?
The ‘undercurrent of racism’ comes from the far right activists who coordinated this stuff, as HOPE not hate reported:
While many instances of flags being raised, or crosses being painted on roundabouts or walls, are being carried out by ordinary people inspired by posts on social media, the main organising force behind the campaign is “Operation Raise the Colours”.
HOPE not hate can reveal that the co-founder and organiser of the group is longtime Stephen Lennon (AKA Tommy Robinson) ally Andrew Currien (AKA Andy Saxon). Formerly a key member of the English Defence League’s leadership bodyguard team, and now running security for the far-right party Britain First, Currien has previously been jailed for his part in a racist death. He was one of six men convicted in 2009 after a 59-year-old man was crushed to death by a car following a violent brawl.
Here’s flag fanatic Tommy Robinson arguing that we need the flags to prevent Muslims raping “a million British kids”:
Another absolute wrong’un cutting down England flags.
This deranged liberalism got us into this mess.
These ideas allowed a million British kids be raped by muslims as not to be called “racist”.

Is it racist to suggest all Muslims are rapists, or that they should leave the country for being Muslim?
Yes – it is – we established that in the previous millennium.
That aside, it’s a bit rich for Robinson to suggest he gives a shit about women or children given his alleged history of turning a blind eye to the actions of paedophiles and rapists in his own movement.
Back to the interview, Mishchuk responded:
Definitely not.
The Union Flag exists as a symbol of unity of the United Kingdom. Our people, our British people, deserve to have a flag that represents them. We are flying them proudly, and we should fly them proudly. What other country in the world has this kind of chaos going on? It’s a disgrace.
I dunno, Mishchuk – maybe people think you agree with the far-right flag shaggers who’ve coordinated all this because you’re refusing to acknowledge their existence?
And as to why he’s not calling them out, maybe it’s because he’s standing shoulder to shoulder with at least one of them:
Oh look, and there’s also ‘Missus Kent’ who sang at Tommy Robinson’s rally too.@PatrickChristys promoting the far right on @GBNews.https://t.co/Km2rOTbZJP pic.twitter.com/OMutqdcIN7

Problems all the way down
There’s another issue with all this SHOUTY PATRIOTISM, and that’s the reason why the Conservatives, Reform, and even Labour are engaging in it. Namely, it’s a distraction. Because as long as the public are yelling at each other over the most trivial shit, they’re not shouting at the government for selling our country off to Yank asset strippers like Blackrock.
It is patently clear that if the MSM gave as much attention to Palantir and Blackrock’s incursions into the public sector, and the duopoly’s nationwide rollout of deregulated free zones as much as they give to Nigel Farage and immigration, we would be seeing outrage directed at these actual seismic issues that are secretly changing Britain into an authoritarian state under a right-wing corporate political model.
He added:
Palantir – the surveillance tech giant founded by Peter Thiel with deep ties to intelligence agencies is now embedded in our NHS, our police forces, the Ministry of Defence, and across the public sector, including Coventry City Council.
BlackRock, the world’s largest asset manager, is quietly absorbing Britain’s infrastructure and housing stock. And across the country, both major parties are rolling out “investment zones” – deregulated corporate free-for-alls that gut planning laws, environmental protections, and democratic oversight.
This isn’t speculation. It’s happening right now.
BlackRock’s infrastructure grab
Meanwhile, BlackRock, the world’s largest asset manager, with £11 trillion under management, is systematically acquiring British public infrastructure and housing. From water companies to energy networks, the assets built with public money are being converted into profit streams for global investors.
Ask yourself: when did you last see a prime-time debate about Palantir’s data contracts? When did a front page scream about investment zones gutting local planning democracy?
You haven’t. Because the mainstream media has made a choice about what you should care about.…

Politics
The Union Jack might belong to the British, but increasingly Britain does not.
GB News and Reform know that, but they’re mates with the people who are buying us out, so don’t expect anything from them besides staged interviews and hollow flagaganda.
