… what an absolute cartoon caricature of himself he's become. Is there anyone who thinks he's anything but a fake? He believes the woman who threw some milk at him should be put in prison … … despite defending thugs who rioted and Reform candidates who’ve been openly racist. Even worse he uses the phrase ‘two-tier justice’ in any and every situation. “Reacting to her 12 month suspended sentence, Mr Farage said: "We now live in a country where you can assault a member of parliament and not go to prison. The latest example of two-tier justice." “In a victim impact statement read out in court, Mr Farage said he "felt humiliated" by the incident.” Grow some balls you sad little man.
"Two Tier Justice". Another 3 word slogan for his followers to repeat ad nauseum, like "Get Brexit Done", "Brexit Means Brexit" etc. for his populist mate Bonko. They know their audience I will say that for both of them
There's no such thing as two tier justice ... ... thankfully our politicians aren't the boss of the judiciary.
As Starmer put it "When judges uphold the law they are branded enemies of the people. When politicians uphold democracy they are branded traitors"
He's a classic self promoting populist BUT he's also a very effective communicator. Like Trump he comes from a privileged and wealthy background but has a knack of convincing working class people he's one of them. Quite bizarre really how he'd got away with it for so long.
They think he's 'one of the lads' because he puts on an England shirt, grabs a pint of Stella and goes down their local ... ... but if they turned up, dressed like that, in his golf club, or local watering hole, he'd call security please log in to view this image
Watched "Question Time " recently and Alister Campbell ripped him a new a rsehole despite Farage trying to talk him down. Can't stand the guy, The sheer bollocks him and Bozo came out with during the Brexit debates just shows him for what he is.
I just don't understand how people can be fooled by him tbh. None of the people who fanatically support him could spell out his solutions to the issues ... ... they just adore him because he has 'charisma'. It couldn't be any more LGBTQ despite them 'being against all that nonsense'.
Probably because he actually answers questions when he’s interviewed and doesn’t dodge them like so many of the countries “leading politicians” do. Starmer pretends to write notes and avoids every question that’s asked of him and Rayner just sounds thick as pigs **** with her “yeah but 14 years of Tory bla bla” to everything she’s asked in parliament. I’d have much respect for all MP’s that go on national TV and speak what they feel and answer questions directly rather than answering whatever they’re being told and making sure they don’t drop themselves or their party in it. Farage has the hand that labour held previously, wait for the public reaction then sit and criticise everything the government do without saying how you’d put it right. Reform will likely never be in power but now with local elections likely being delayed (wonder why) it’s more fuel on the fire and more anger directed toward labour.
He certainly didn’t answer any questions when it came to post Brexit and how much it has harmed the country… nothing but raised eyebrows
Think he said Brexit had failed due to Tory mismanagement but he wouldn’t change the result didn’t he? Which I can’t disagree with if I’m honest. I’m sure a remainer who’s a lot more intelligent than me, because only the intelligent wanted to remain lol, will tell me I’m incorrect but left wing interference and heel dragging at the highest level played into the hands of the EU and gave them the upper hand. We should’ve pushed a hard brexit straight away and got it over with. The EU is failing so if we’re worse out of it I’d hate to see what we’d be like had we remained. More and more political parties across the EU are basing their manifestos on leaving the EU so it’s going to be a challenge moving forward. “An ECFR survey in 2019 found 69% of French voters felt the EU and domestic political systems were broken, against a 38% EU average. In January 2024, 56% of French people thought French and European politics were broken.”
He's probably even worse than Boris Johnson for that ... ... almost never answers any question he's been asked and never says how he would carry out his endless promises. He's actually notorious for it. Here's his latest from a week back. "Nigel Farage lost his temper during a grilling about one of his MPs serving time in prison. The Reform UK leader said James McMurdock's conviction for repeatedly kicking his former girlfriend was "irrelevant" and branded him a "fine young man". Mr Farage repeatedly tried to dodge questions and instead whined about the "mainstream media". " https://x.com/i/status/1866512642338083207 BTW, do you agree that this woman should've been jailed, simple question. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c5ywp7lgwvro
Another Political thread about a newly elected MP This should be merged with The New Dawn thread. What's the thoughts of the MODs?
Ah right, so you're a big Nigel Farage fan who wants this latest stupidity burying in another thread ... ... or am I wrong. While you're here do you believe this woman should be imprisoned.
