Farage is more Oswald Mosley.

Re: Brexit
Personally l cannot stick Nigel Farage but he is what l would describe as a populist politician who thrives on being on the side of the underdog of the British political scene..

He has represented relatively popular positions though and even if the supporters of those positions think it is a poor cheerleader for them he has often been the only outlet for them. There were plenty of Leave supporters who has distain for Farage's dog whistling xenophobia but UKIP were the only option if the matter of the EU was their main political concern. Just as Corbyn isn't popular but is the only option for many who want higher taxation, higher public spending and to end benefit cuts. I don't really think he needs to be 'beaten', it's just a matter of continuing to argue against those positions and to not get drawn into Farage's ego-trip whilst doing so. |

The EU elections are proportional, but given the number of seats available the proportionality is only rough and smaller parties can still lose out. So a lot will depend on how far the Leave vote splits between The Brexit Party (Farage) and UKIP (now infested with BNP and EDL entryists and other assorted nut jobs). The Brexit Party wouldn’t stand a chance with anyone else in charge but with Farage front and centre, his appeal to the bulk of the Brexit-minded electorate shouldn’t be underestimated. |
Re: Brexit
My votes will go to the party that stands on decent principles, and does not bring race in to the mix. While UKIP had some policies like this under Farage, I could never vote UKIP, and certainly not now under it’s shift to far right.
The Brexit Party will get my votes. I don’t hate Farage. Not always agreed with him. But with my vote, along with many others, I want to send a clear message to the Brexit blockers in parliament. That us Brexiteers, will not just sit back and allow the biggest democratic vote in history to be ignored. The UK democratically decided to leave the European Union and leave we must. The country does not need to be in the EU to trade, the membership is a con job. So if voting for another political party gets the job of leaving done, then so be it. I’m pretty sure other passionate leavers will do the same, Remainers are in for a rude awakening, if they think us Brexiteers will just accept this disgusting ignorance to a Democratic decision and move on. And already, early voting intensions show Brexit Party will do very well in European elections. Heavily beating Liberal Democrat’s, Green Party and the ChUkers. Who are all Anti-Brexit. This highlighting that Britain has not changed it’s mind on leaving the EU. |
