A man that aligns himself with big tobacco, fox hunting, Donald Trump.
When the weather breaks I’m gonna pay a visit to Clacton, I’ve just got to see what it’s like 😆
A lot of people see a guy like this on the telly, pint in hand in a pub, hear maybe one or two things they agree with on immigration, and then fill in the rest of the CV themselves with words like “decent bloke”, “on our side “ and “man of the people “ rather than “rich grifter living in Brussels“
I'm surprised that they are surprised. They must have know what Führer Farage was like and of his repugnant views on nearly every subject yet he was still elected with a 8,405 majority.
I have no idea why she thought that! In the hierarchy of what Farage stands for, human rights don’t feature and the only people he’s interested in are those gullible enough to bung him their cash.
And if this doesn't make you realise how politically illiterate the general public are nothing will. The very idea that Farage was "more for people and human rights" is utterly preposterous.
Farage is a grifter. He's not interested in you or I, only what the cash grab is.
He stands with a pint for the cameras, and as soon as they are gone, he dumps the beer and gets his red wine or his gin and tonic. (former aids the sources)
Sadly all too believable. Acres of evidence ignored when voting for someone & then massive surprise when the ignored evidence turns out to be true. Gullible doesn't come close. Just like the "I love Boris" crowd say, even as they're dumped on from a great height by BJ.
A great deal of ignorance but also a huge amount of misinformation & lies from the RW media have contributed to the rise of the likes of Farage & the fascist Reform UK company. This includes BBC & Sky News & the fascist print media, the Mail, Express, Telegraph & others.
How are people actually this stupid? They really should not be able to vote. No critical thinking whatsoever- how do they get themselves dressed in the morning?
The right (and in particular the far right) understand that the general public only skim the news, at best. Therefore people like Farage can be in favour of policies that are totally against their interests, but maintain support with a few sympathetic headlines and soundbites.
"I'm surprised because I thought he was more for the people and human rights." Do they live in caves Clayton?!!!! He’s a sheister! He’d sell his gran to get more famous or if it bought the role of PM. Ship him off to America so he sail up the orange canal.
all political campaigning should be banned, and potential MPs should be limited to their voting record and the actual stated policies in their manifesto when trying to win over voters. any deviation loses you the right to stand as an MP for 10 years.

Farage & De-Form UK have the gullible audience in abundance
I enjoyed reading that
They want to wallow in bigotry and fear.

He's a conman.
That's why we're doomed, ridden with Reform voters walking amongst us in the streets.... and rednecks in the US of A.
In other words, if you don't do politics, politics does you in.
