[marty21]

The Sleaford Mods echo my feelings on this matter.

Got to laugh at the fact that the biggest div in the history of this venerable forum started this thread ....proper Mumfords'

Tempted to go and dig up his thoughts on Hillsborough to mark the occasion

Just seen them referred to as "trust fund wurzels"

Well this certainly did make me go wow.

Maybe it’s cynical; maybe he has actually had some decent conversations with some of the people close to him.

 

[hitmouse]

I can't remember who the original source was, but I did enjoy whoever pointed out that Mumford & Sons endorsing Andy Ngo must have come as a great relief to Nickelback.

His agent, his accountant, his PR

The first three paragraphs read like a Trust Fund kid writing about his gap year . . . and then it went downhill.

Nickelback: Still shit, but not cunts like Mumford and Son's.

 

[Sasaferrato]

Who is Ngo?

 

[ddraig]

Who is Ngo?

A right wing "journalist" who lies

 

[The39thStep]

A right wing "journalist" who lies

He’s more than that he compiles hit lists of anti fascists for the far right

 

[Monkeygrinder's Organ]

Sounds like he's basically quitting to become Laurence Fox. Wonder when they're meeting to fight it out for the turf.

 

[Barking_Mad]

What a plank.

 

[cyberpink]

Sorry I'm late to the party here. The Ngo book he's talking about is the usual "deep state soros antifa" excrement we have come to expect from perpetual victim Ngo, right??
