"An MEP who will never take their seat"? So why go through the charade then? Aren't you all democrats? Isn't this what it is all about?
Obviously not. This is all about pursuing the broken dream, at all costs, aligning yourself with literally anyone to get over the line.

Bannon is not pulling Farages strings. The Brexit Party is not xenophobic. You need to stop telling utter lies.

But Mick, the EU is not disgusting and corrupt, so what?
We all live in our own personal realities now. Brexit is changed everything. You can have your truth and I can have mine.
If/when this monstrous project ever gets over the line, wherever the line is and whatever colour it is, this country will be a broken place. The real reasons behind this will remain and will get worse. The sunlit uplands, long awaited will be barren. The drinks of celebration will be just cups of bile. The taste bitter for both sides for a generation: the young generation betrayed by the old and the old angry that their promised past did not materialise.
Meanwhile, back on the subject of the nice man Mr Farage, who is definitely not a racist
Nigel Farage under fire over 'antisemitic tropes' on far-right US talkshow
Quote:
Nigel Farage is facing strong criticism from Jewish organisations and a series of other groups after it emerged he repeatedly took part in interviews with a far-right US talkshow host, during which the Brexit party leader openly discussed conspiracy theories, some of which have been linked to antisemitism.
A Guardian investigation has found Farage has appeared at least six times on the show of Alex Jones, who was sued by bereaved parents after claiming a US school shooting was faked, and was banned permanently from Facebook last week.

Careful, Nigel, now you don't want to be associated with nasty white supremacist nut jobs, do you?

Indeed we are. History tells us so. Enough time has passed for nationalism to be used again for sinister motives all the while presenting the friendly face.
The paradox here is that the young who have little collective memories of the great wars, instinctively reject nationalism in its current form whereas the older generation, who personally attest to being "wiser" and have a far more direct appreciation, are seduced by the promises of the New Nationalists.
