He is a revolting man. He tries to spin everyrhing to "other" immigrants, whereas immigrants have enriched our country both economically and culturally.

Yeh but people will believe it because they want to believe it 🤷‍♂️

Farage is a traitor and should be treated as such. At no time should he be given any sucker in the uk or its former territories. A cur, that deserves to be shunned by all decent Britons. A Russian and American stooge. Destroying Britain and all that is British. Be gone you waste of space.

Bet the little blighter has a European passport. Like most of the unionists in NI have Irish passports. Hypocrisy really.

He also advocates for leaving ECHR which will remove even more workers rights!

jacquinotmybag.bsky.social•1 day ago

He doesn’t half talk a load of sh*te wages have been falling for years because of successive Tory governments taking away workers rights. No sick pay no time and a half or double time unless you are in public sector or have a decent employer

Even if they lowered wages by 10% I read loads of brexiters saying they would be happy for themselves and their family to be significantly financially hit as long as they got Brexit.

Farage. A man who will never knowingly protect workers rights

If it werent for his rich mates greed, wages across the board would be much better than they are now, and Farages desire to leave the ECHR is another lunge in that direction. Greed, unbridled greed and more greed.

If there's a lie to be told about anyone foreign who's here through normal legal routes or otherwise, that lie will be told, over and over again no matter how many times he's told it is a lie

It’s bollocks, at best he takes a “fact” out of context loaded with implied racism and twists it into the rivers of blood speech.

Why does Farage's bullsh*t go unchallenged?

He appears to have ignored 14 years of a Conservative Government and 2008 crash driven austerity.

Even after being sold a complete shit sandwich in Brexit, the English wonder why LaughingHyena continues to lie?
I'll explain...you have a healthy population of racist bigots, who happily continue to eat the shit sandwich...
Don't look at America and laugh, you voted for the Tories for 15 years...

You can't look at him and not think of

Who pays wages? It’s the corporations and businesses - not the workers. Dont blame the workers for low wages!

carmenzs.bsky.social•1 day ago

Is what he is doing legal?

denisepattinso09.bsky.social•1 day ago

Employers are using this as a reason to lower wages .. along with restricted hrs contracts for employees. Plenty of jobs just not enough money to make working viable... Government is subsidising businesses by paying rents/UC... And we wonder why the youth are uninterested in work!!

Everything that comes out of his mouth is lies and his lies are the root cause of Brexit. Why anyone takes any notice of this traitor is a mystery.

nickmoyes.bsky.social•1 day ago

Farage has always been a lying c*nt.

Don’t believe anything this guy says.
He lied to entice the British to adopt the Brexit plan.

Unemployment is still at very low levels. There is not a supply issue in the labour market, in fact we're still short of people across multiple industries. What he says makes no sense.
