Farage is a great man (from a leaver’s perspective). Hugh’s persective is that of a remainer, possibly rejoiner. Hugh would presumably accept Brussels’ diktat and be pleased to get cliser to the perfidioys Irish and Spanish antisemites. Almost begs a Hugh Chronicles.

My perspective is Farage can not be trusted . I am not one for conspiracy theories but there are things going on with crypto that if true could mean life will become far more restricted. Some of what I have been told makes sense and if you look at the muppets/puppets that have been in charge for what seems a long long time I just can not dismiss the allegation things are being steered in certain directions

Not much you can do as a minority party , even under the system used in the UK were a minority of the votes party has a high parliamentary majority. :erm:

Crypto is just a way of getting around sanctions - be those sanctions against unlawful individuals or unlawful countries.

Ben Habib alleges that Nigel Farage and Boris Johnson were paid £1m each by Christopher Harborne to ensure the Brexit Party was not in competition with Conservative seats at the 2019 general election. Neither has sued him yet. Here's Ben Habib making this allegation.

Well for one, he has the knack of scaring the crap out of the other parties and the Media.

Why is that do you think? Is it because he could actually become PM?
Is it because he likes to highlight some 'problems' in the UK that they daren't mention?
Is it because they see people turning away from the mainstream politics that have failed for so many years, and now fear for the end of their ride on the gravy train?

Answers on a postcard please . . actually no, answers on a voting form ;)

It is more than that Crypto is being heavily manipulated by the 1% . They decide which coins work they allow certain coins to do well for a while and then manipulate crashes so the 1% can buy it all up which instantly causes the value to skyrocket. XRP mark my words. If this does continue to develop how I have been informed it will then well I am not going to continue as it could all be A male of the Bovine species Excrement .

Well, it looks like Farage is on the gravy cruise liner…

There's been a few occasions when the World has seen the big players dump huge amounts of bitcoin . . then buying it all back after the price has dropped.

Nothing new here, just the same shysters preying on the gullible :rolleyes:

Never said he wasn't, but the rest are worried of losing their share

The Remoaners play the man, not the issue. When they do try addressing the issue, they talk vaguely about our largest trading partner, but they can't put justifiable numbers to the claimed benefits of rejoining. Poor Brexit today is the result o failure in government policies; not Brexit per se.

Farage helped get us away from the Brussels yoke and governments screwed it up.

With girl friends like that, I can see why Farage is constantly smiling!

  • It was initially a gift of £5m with no conditions attached.
  • Then it became a payment for the purpose of security.
  • Then it became a payment for his Brexit campaigning.
  • £1.4m of the £5m wasn't used to pay for his house, because the house was funded from his I'm a Celebrity appearance.
  • His accounts show the house wasn't bought using funds from his I'm a Celebrity appearance.

Farage may be able to fool some people but I suspect the Parliamentary Standards Commissioner won't be one of them.

If there is a by-election in Southend, will British Reform voters be as forgiving as American MAGA voters? Perhaps his flock will fall for a line about his being victimised by the establishment? He can at least draw upon his Coutts Bank experience to back up this line.

The first three are connected and all are true.

I don’t know about the issue about the house, simply that ‘I’m a Celebrity’ simply enabled him to buy it. It doesn’t matter which account he took it from - he’s probably got multiple accounts.

I wouldn’t take any notice of smear campaigns unless a subsequent investigation proved them to be true.

If you think Farage can’t be trusted, do you not have even greater qualms about Starmer or Polanski? Starmer is breaking his promises and U-turning more often than a drunk driver who has hopelessly lost his way and Polanski lives in a fantasy world. But you focus on Farage, whose stated objective is to repair the economy, cut waste and stop illegal immigration in its tracks ( and he even has a plan to do this!).

I know who’d I would prefer to be in charge. Badenoch is good too, but her left wing keeps throwing obstacles in the way of achieving what the electorate want.

Yes, and the EU is driven by the bureaucrats, not the politicians.

You’ve got that right, Carth.
