I think we're lucky that it's only Reform that has some dodgy characters in their midst ;)

I agree - it’s not as if a Foreign Secretary ditched his security detail to visit a Russian oligarch and coterie in their Italian villa…

The same Russian who he also appointed to the House of Lords? Whose dad was a KGB agent?

Like his mate Trumpy, Farage and Reform will be Putin's puppets and appeasers..

Why do you think the Russians were so in favour of Brexit ?

So were 17 million Brits.

Re: Reform UK's chronicles

Would the Conservatives want to, though?

Farage tells donors he expects Reform UK will do an election deal with Tories

Rightwing populist party could pursue a merger or pact with the Conservatives

Nigel Farage has told donors he expects a deal or merger between his Reform UK party and the Conservatives ahead of the next general election, suggesting he does not believe he can sweep to power alone.

One donor said that Farage had told them he expected to do a deal with the Tories, whether it is a merger or an agreement on co-operation between the two parties, to ease Reform’s route to election victory.

The person added the Reform leader had said such a deal could only be done on his terms, in part because Farage felt betrayed after the pact he made with the Tories at the 2019 election.

Another associate who met with Farage in recent months said that the Reform leader described a pact or merger as inevitable but added it may take some time.

The person added that Farage had said that Reform held more power so any agreement would be made on his rightwing populist party’s terms.

The Tories are languishing at about 17 per cent in opinion polls — a similar level to both Labour and the Greens and their lowest level in decades — while Reform is leading on 29 per cent.

The discussions between Farage and donors point to the challenges he faces in turning Reform’s political momentum into real power, as a split vote on the right could allow liberal and left-leaning voters to unite to keep his party out of office.

But Farage dismissed the descriptions of the conversations, telling the Financial Times that “sometimes people hear what they want to”.

His responses to the accusations that he was racist at school by multiple other pupils were that 'I would never ever do it in a hurtful or insulting way’ and "never directly really tried to go and hurt anybody."

Quote:

Mr Lihou said Farage's defence that he's "never directly racially abused anybody" is "just not true, I've witnessed it," he told ITV's GMB.

"Anybody who wasn't white would likely have a comment, and that's for many years - we're talking 13, 14 all the way up to senior school," he added.

"He would go up to [them] and go 'useless' or 'send them home'."

He claims he heard Farage singing "g*s them all" at Jewish classmates, adding: "He used to regularly sing that at school and it's horrendous."

Re: Reform UK's chronicles

You can always tell when something is scaring the shite out of present Governments, and the institutions that hang on to their coat tails, by the ever increasing lengths of desperation they turn to in order to paint them in a bad light.

Dragging stuff up that's probably 45 years old, from back in the days when we had blackboards at school, when a gollywog was a kids doll, and when parents and teachers actually had the sense to punish naughty disruptive children.

It's all heading the same way as the run up to Brexit, keep attacking it by any and all means possible, while telling people they must be stupid uneducated mouth breathing morons to even consider voting for it. Didn't that go well ;)
