He's a British Pakistani, and to some people he's also narcissistic . . so where's the problem?


oh yeah, the problem is (as mentioned before) the Institutions are shit scared of being toppled, and Reform are now doing silly things to their own membership before the media 'finger pointing' takes hold

be careful you'll trigger the wokie, and he'll be climbing up onto his high horse ...

A key reason for being expelled must be that him not declaring that the X account is his. That goes against what he's disclosed to Reform UK so he's breached his contract with the Party.
The account also posted that no foreign national or first-generation immigrant should be allowed to sit in parliament. That is not Reform UK policy.
Suggesting that some important coloured Labour politicians were not British puts you on rocky ground. On its own that may not have been sufficient for Reform UK to expel him but together there's a compelling case to do so.

That doesn't make him guilty. How do you prove a negative?

There may be more accusers than those defending him, but it proves nothing. Troublemakers can gang up on a person while others who know different keep their heads down.

It's not a case of may it's 28 named accusers v 1 unnamed defender.

But never mind, let's not believe the victims.

Bullshit detector has just hit 100.

50+ yr old claims, when Farage was a child, a teenager in school.

Whatever, Labour activist outfit are behind this, they’re wasting their time.

We’ve just had the Chancellor lie, and mislead the country, and this piffle is what knocks that off the news cycle……….

Running scared . . and people can see it, which doesn't bode well for those still trying to con the public through their media 'connections'

People throwing mud should have a think of where the mud came from ;)

It's politics. Everything you've ever done is brought up pretty much. Tories and Labour leaders get it.

Cameron got the stuff about his days at university and the weird posh club he was at. Corbyn got articles about his relationship with Diane Abbott. Stamer had people looking into whether his dad owned a factory, and that Starmer got his mother a donkey farm for some reason.

Farage gets it too now.

One key difference between the allegations against Farage and the back history of Corbyn, Cameron etc which newspapers researched is that Farage's accusers proactively contacted the media due to their concerns about Farage.

50+ years ago? Farage was aged 17/18 when he was alleged to have said these things. That was 43/44 years ago. I think your calculator needs some new batteries as do your arguments.

The 28 public school pupils including many of Jewish origin are part of a Labour activist outfit? Yeah right? :D
GB News, Reform or the Telegraph would have found this out if there was such a plot. Haven't situations like Hillsborough and the grooming gangs indicated that victims might actually be telling the truth?

I haven't heard that one, although there was a rumour that 23 girls from a school many years ago were lining up to sell a story to the newspapers about how Farage kissed with one eye open and his fingers crossed behind his back.

Probably untrue, but hey, who doesn't want to get their name in the media nowadays, and the money is handy for Christmas too. :D

To be honest, I kept one eye open when kissing some of the girls in these parts . . you never knew if they'd change into a princess or a frog :D

tbf, if it’s in Lincolnshire, with the webbing between the six fingers on each hand, it’s more likely they are anurans*…

*from Encyclopaedia Brittanica - (Anura) have protruding eyes, no tail, and strong, webbed hind feet that are adapted for leaping and swimming. They also possess smooth, moist skins.
