Given we’ve now learned that Musk would rather employ immigrants than Americans…

Would be great to know if @nigelfaragemp.bsky.social and Reform agree with this stance

I’m sure their supporters will be intrigued to know…

Well, their supporters are pretty much unemployable...

samuelsotunde.bsky.social•64 days ago

His account has been suspended. Wonder why ?

aminaerin.bsky.social•65 days ago

I imagine he’ll take a different approach in the uk where he doesn’t have a sizeable presence so is not financially motivated and can just be his racist self

mrdaz.bsky.social•65 days ago

Do Reform supporters know that Tesla lobbied the UK government to increase the prices on petrol vehicles to help fund subsidies on electric ones?
They get a bit cross when an elected mayor implements a ulez policy, I’d imagine they would be apoplectic if they found out an unelected foreigner did it.

jmclaren.bsky.social•65 days ago

To be fair. Farage is one immigrant that appears employed by Musk/Trump? So you can hardly expect him to disagree.

paulsageordie.bsky.social•65 days ago

Nanna Farage from question time is not going to be happy with little Nige wanting money from someone who will increase immigration

jameswestonson.bsky.social•65 days ago

I'm sure our diligent competent News media will be right on this.

Oh Wait . . . . . . .

champions1982.bsky.social•65 days ago

They'll claim to be ok with the "right" sort of immigrants despite spending months venting their spleens at general immigration and giving jobs to British people.

Their mental gymnastics are Olympic standards

pseudocrem.bsky.social•65 days ago

Brexit Frog is on here?. He must be drowning in digital milkshakes.

jorichardskent.bsky.social•65 days ago

Nigel Farage’s gullible supporters / fan boys / cap doffers still haven’t worked out what he did to the UK with Brexit!

karpatitude.bsky.social•65 days ago

Like all of them Farage will agree with whatever he thinks will get him something today and then tomorrow deny he ever said it. That I can cope with he has the morals of an alley cat. It’s all his supporters who will yell in support of both that are painful

steve1970peng.bsky.social•65 days ago

Needs s Luigi

karpatitude.bsky.social•65 days ago

It’s not that I don’t sympathise with the sentiment but I’m not sure making a martyr out of the rat helps.

dforsyth.bsky.social•65 days ago

It is a Hobson's choice moment he can bring Musk in a provide a crazy amount of money to destroy the Tories, the British Media will be gagging for the advertising money Fiona and Laura will give out for free as they are on the taxpayer payroll. Nothing will improve for the average reform voters

espengis.bsky.social•65 days ago

I'm sure @nigelfarage.bsky.social et al are more than willing to support any action that will enable them and their backers to exploit as many people as much as possible to maximise their own profit. Thats what they are in the game for!

nigelfarage.bsky.social•64 days ago

snowglobe-1234.bsky.social•65 days ago

I thought Musk betraying the MAGA movement wouldn’t happen until after Trump took office

mrweekender.bsky.social•65 days ago

Farage is mainly in it for the cash, so this won’t bother him

spanglish51.bsky.social•65 days ago

Musk was never going to bow down to Trump.

In the new year , rather than fall out with Musk $$, I predict that Trump will suddenly decide that ‘those’ immigrants are acceptable .

Shame hugely populated USA doesn’t have enough people educated to the level they need.

tynegal.bsky.social•65 days ago

It will all end in tears.

victoria1921.bsky.social•65 days ago

No Marina. Obsesssive MSM coverage is why he's still here. Why does UK need more divisive rhetoric and lies from this arrogant grifter? As the chief architect of the unnecessary Brexit referendum he should bear responsiblity for the mess, misery. Please ignore the attention seeking troublemaker.

ceri38.bsky.social•65 days ago

Farage will sell his soul for money.

bsky-sam.bsky.social•65 days ago

A miraculous escape from a plane crash suggests he probably already has.

ceri38.bsky.social•65 days ago

Good point. He’s dancing to the devil’s tune.

drpaulitious.bsky.social•65 days ago

Let's not get dragged into that nonsense, eh? Let them obsess over that, and we get on with fixing broken things.

victoria1921.bsky.social•65 days ago

100%. Farage, the boomerang politician. Loyal only to himself and 💰 but always gifted a platform to air his racist, toxic lies. He promised to go away if Brexit failed, but he's still here, mainly because right wing client media/ MSM treat the fxxk like visiting royalty. 🙏 ignore the troublemaker

drpaulitious.bsky.social•65 days ago

I mean, surely we've learned by now that trying to compete with this lot on their preferred topics just pushes them further to the extremes, and drags others with them?

victoria1921.bsky.social•65 days ago

Some people always knew that 'this lot" are their preferred topics. They are appalling grifters without shame.

drpaulitious.bsky.social•65 days ago

Oh, Brexit hasn't failed. It's like they used to say about communism. No-one has done it properly yet... 😁
He'll be around as long as the media lets him.

thealexm.bsky.social•65 days ago

Would that be man of the people, Nigel from the block?

gillmh.bsky.social•65 days ago

Yep. The Nigel who wasn't born with a silver spoon wedged in his gob, didn't go to public school and isn't a multimillionaire.

illing942.bsky.social•65 days ago

The same Nigel Farage whose father was a stockbroker and went to the fee paying school Dulwich College. Not the experience as your average man in the street.

davidpeacock40.bsky.social•65 days ago

The very same one who went round the village near his posh boy school singing hitler youth songs

Data experts finding/reporting concerning inorganic voting patterns from the US swing states - that all miraculously went to Trump, odds of which were assessed to be 1 in 1 trillion chance

More revelations to come early next week

Look forward to Farage's thoughts

christopher-hervez.bsky.social•65 days ago

The big money corporations and individuals had already moved their production to China and Southeast Asia. Oddly enough this makes the UKs carbon emissions "lower" and the cost of production (i.e. labour) lower. It's a win, win all round.

johnwjones.bsky.social•65 days ago

The Farage account listed has been suspended ?

crankyaine.bsky.social•65 days ago

Wouldn't it be wonderful if the media picked this up.

gec236.bsky.social•65 days ago

I’m sure the Farage cult would be more than happy to be part of this fascist selection process

ganymede2227.bsky.social•65 days ago

Elon chose his side carefully. He acted like MAGA but all he wants is his continued access to govt largesse aka subsidies. MAGA have been played and they are not happy.

smfbooth.bsky.social•65 days ago

That was the purpose of Brexit to employ immigrant cheap labour.

leeuwerke.bsky.social•65 days ago

And to get rid of regulation so billionaires can be more exploitative

arconiat.bsky.social•65 days ago

Account suspended hah!

scobit.bsky.social•65 days ago

I am sure the caviat ( excuse spelling) would be they would have to be white.

bsky.heenan.net•65 days ago

Farage would probably support zero immigration.
No way would he believe that some "foreigner" would have useful skills.
Nor would he care if the NHS fell apart. For that matter, his followers wouldn't care either.
Remember the antivaxers dying of COVID, unrepentant even proud.
That's Reform for you.

miksu2903.bsky.social•65 days ago

Would it be bad if Musk made reform & Conservative party-members emigrate to the US? For the UK it would be quite good. In the US they would be forgotten after the next ad on TV.

ukparliamentfocus.bsky.social•65 days ago

Something tells me Nigel won't be responding ..

bc108.bsky.social•65 days ago

His party have done more to enable long term high net immigration than any other party so I'd say it's a resounding yes from him and a grunt from the donors

faithjoc.bsky.social•65 days ago

Now that Leon and Bannon are having a fight, it will be interesting to see which side Fartage picks.

janeyllou.bsky.social•65 days ago

Whoever offers him the most money.

energy171.bsky.social•64 days ago

Ooooh what's this? Seems farage isn't liked by the powers that be here

anomander73.bsky.social•65 days ago

Why don't we just concentrate on our own "team" doing what we voted them in for?

People who hate Farage constantly go on about the media giving him air time ...then do the same themselves

He's living rent free in so many heads I wonder if any of you really care about making the UK better

supergm.bsky.social•65 days ago

Outrage gets likes tho'.

anomander73.bsky.social•65 days ago

100%

The next obvious follow on to that tho is any "talking head" who's involved in going on Jeremy Vine/Newsnight/QT (from either side) their priority is NOT making the country better...it's to be as extreme and polarising as they can be to keep their grift going

And the "followers" fall for it

mattb79.bsky.social•65 days ago

Surely he’s too busy arguing about how many subscribers his limited company has with Bad Enoch?

eleanorrylance.bsky.social•65 days ago

Only because he wants to exploit them. Farage would rather exploit the local population, I’m sure.

nicholasbannan.bsky.social•65 days ago

Elon musk - chief salesman of Apartheid to a gullible world that sees this as normal.

eldergill.bsky.social•65 days ago

Oh please. They are both absolute “wing-nuts” but the US economy is not the U.K. economy.
You don’t help “our” case by making false comparisons

soph0517.bsky.social•65 days ago

Well they do have 100 million reasons too, and they will will probs rely on the fact that thick as a plank sheeple reform members can't hold onto information for to long to get away with it.

cox22.bsky.social•64 days ago

There supporters are so brainwashed they don’t care

johnnieburdette.bsky.social•65 days ago

It would also be great to know whether MAGA agree with Donald.

debsyn.bsky.social•65 days ago

There is no way Trump wrote that himself...

johnnieburdette.bsky.social•65 days ago

I would say that Trump did write that. If he didn’t, why is his silence on spat deafening?

debsyn.bsky.social•65 days ago

I meant, the language used is far too normal and rational, not a single rant or capitalised word. Not his style, basically.

johnnieburdette.bsky.social•65 days ago

Trump was also normal when he donated $$ to a Kamala Harris campaign a few years ago.

martinbellmcmlv.bsky.social•65 days ago

Farage's supporters don't really give a flying f... about anything as long as they can whinge and moan that their miserable existences are the fault of someone else. Hate has become a sport for some, victimhood a way of life. It's sad, it's desperate and it's difficult to cure. And he knows it.

blahdyblah.bsky.social•65 days ago

For the true believers I am sure that is true, there is probably a big chunk of people leaning to reform who are just fed up who can be won over with slight improvements in their material conditions though.

iskragoch.bsky.social•65 days ago

And they actually said, immigrants = brighter, cheaper. Billionaire tech-owners = traditional, right-wing capitalists using MAGA buffoons for their own benefit. Who'd have thunk it, eh.

poetsue.bsky.social•65 days ago

Musk has been calling white Americans 'subtards' in his posts and he obviously doesn't think Americans are as intelligent as other nations and doesn't think they can go to college and learn. How will Reform UK voters view that I wander??

hooky-gear.bsky.social•65 days ago

They can’t come to their own view without our Nige telling them. You haven’t been listening have you ;)

vibe5.bsky.social•65 days ago

Well he did employ his German wife, but I guess that's more corruption than anything else.

It's so hard to keep up with all of his lies, hypocrisy, greed, racism.....

I can't be arsed to list everything it easier to just say he's a c*nt.

jorichardskent.bsky.social•65 days ago

More “do as I say, not as I do”.

#Farage

montiger.bsky.social•65 days ago

Do not post anything about this man and his party
You are providing him the oxygen he needs

robphilp.bsky.social•65 days ago

National front Nige doesn't give a shite what his subscribers want or care about as long as musk has piles of cash frogface will suck his titties.

princessofely.bsky.social•65 days ago

His account was suspended

markandrew25.bsky.social•64 days ago

Musk want people to run is companies . So can make more money . It the only reason for back Trump. It the only reason for funding Nigel Farage . He doesn't care the UK or USA it money he will never have enough of it . Is he happy no he a big man baby.

mc00.bsky.social•65 days ago

Farage isn't on Bsky atm.

amhoward.bsky.social•65 days ago

They voted for a Brexit that resulted in more non-European immigration. They are either completely ok with it or too fucking stupid to know what the consequences of their votes are.

jorichardskent.bsky.social•65 days ago

Exactly!

#Farage
#Brexit
#Immigration

anomander73.bsky.social•65 days ago

Or ...and this is controversial mate so let it percolate

They just voted to leave the EU

amhoward.bsky.social•65 days ago

They voted to leave the EU while living in a country that had a shortage of skilled labour and consistently relied on inbound labour flows. The consequences were predicted.

anomander73.bsky.social•65 days ago

Cool ...because everybody who emigrates anywhere is a health professional or architect I'm sure

So we're all happy

On a personal note I'm one of those EU immigrants to the UK ...can't say I've noticed that what you say is true tho

But never mind I'll run with it

anomander73.bsky.social•65 days ago

Nice to see you really thought about my proposal for a good 40 seconds tho before coming back with another cliché

amhoward.bsky.social•65 days ago

I suppose there is a third option: they were lied to by a bad man. Will they believe the same bad man’s lies again?

jingscrivvens.bsky.social•65 days ago

Judging by the effects of riot causer and his Brexit. Yes.

ilforddave.bsky.social•65 days ago

How is that mouth breather allowed on here ?

arconiat.bsky.social•65 days ago

Well it's suspended, no idea if it was his legit account, but I like to think it is.

ilforddave.bsky.social•65 days ago

I already had it blocked
