Farage hid a £5 million “gift” 22:21 - Apr 29 with 20229 viewsbuilthjack

That’s a very big gift.

Swansea Indepenent Poster Of The Year 2021. Dr P / Mart66 / Roathie / Parlay / E20/ Duffle was 2nd, but he is deluded and thinks in his little twisted brain that he won. Poor sod. We let him win this year, as he has cried for a whole year. His 14 usernames, bless his cotton socks.

Fair comment.
I think a lot of the racism among Restore isn't THAT deeply entrenched....it's largely borne out of a sense of open borders out of control. We have an island siege mentality at heart and it'd served us well against Spain, France and Germany down the years...

To many it seems we are torching that on the bonfire of vanities in the name of societal "progress"....

The public has for the main part had 0% say in it ...bar Brexit which was a pushback that has seemingly backfired

It goes against our national sense of fair play, Magna Carta, demographic consultation and basic democracy...

The people are concerned and they have every right to be. The future is looking far from rosy...


You've got people like Steve Laws supporting Restore. He'd happily re-enact something like the Nuremberg laws where you've got lawyers working out just how "British" someone is depending upon the ethnicity of their grandparents. It's just dumb.

I don't care what colour or background someone has as long as they're happy to live peacefully, obey the laws, not seek to infringe on other people's choices/freedoms and contribute to society. For most cultures arriving in the UK that's not a problem, and that should be acknowledged.

For one in particular however, it has been an issue.

Brexit is a whole different debate. The Working Classes rejected the narrative that they were basically ordered to accept by their "betters" and we've not heard the end of it since.

People have, with a straight face, insisted that we're Billions worse off having left, despite all reputable economic indicators suggesting that the UK's economy has performed on a par with some EU countries and better than others.

Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair, or f*cking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man... and give some back.

Steve Laws is an imbecile. I’m certain now he’s a part of this Germanic identity cult which is led by some guy who does the daily agenda on YouTube, I’ll dig him out. Ex BNP and NF member trying to relive the past in modern times.

Dangerous.

A great believer in taking anything you like to wherever you want to.

Yep. He's a "true believer" race warrior. A complete idiot.

There's probably a lot of truth in the idea that many people just voicing concerns about their communities and mass immigration are being pushed towards racial hostility.

When you see what's happening in places like Rotherham, Rochdale or Southport, and the Government's response (since doubled down on) is to label anyone expressing concerns about it as a racist then many will just shrug their shoulders and not care any more.

It's a point that I've made many times in the past. Simply the qualifications and pay required/offered for MP's are not enough to attract the calibre of individual who might make a decent go of the job.

Take the new Health Secretary for example. A PPE graduate who has been a councillor, adviser to Sadiq Khan and an MP since 2019. What on Earth qualifies him to run the seventh largest employer on the Planet with an annual budget of nigh on £200Bn?

There should be minimum standards for MP's. An age limit at both ends. A requirement to have a 10-15 year work history outside NGO/Goverment (with a few limited exceptions such as NHS or Military). Proven experience in delivering success in fields where it matters. Double, maybe even triple the pay. Reduce the numbers to offset the costs.

Set up an independent, politically neutral screening service where all parties have to submit their prospective candidates for approval. No more politically reliable thirtysomethings who have never done an actual days work and wouldn't last five minutes in the private sector.

This has been floating about on Twitter for the last couple of days and captures things rather well.

Steve Baker is a perfect example of the sort of person we need in Parliament. Ten years in the RAF, then Ten years in the private sector working in IT. Good mix of experience in the real world. His successor as MP has mostly worked as an MP elsewhere, a SPAD and a lobbyist.

Exactly

We used to have politicians of calibre in this country of all parties but how that mantle has fallen....

The fact that you Scotia...and it's not at all personal...normalises "oh he's just weak as 'Piso Gath' " illustrates how far we have descended. Failure has been normalised....

He's an utter fraud. A student human rights activist clown cosplaying in a role he doesn't understand the basics of and is terminally emasculated by his total lack of a clear vision for the road ahead ...

...and people (rightly) call Farage a grifter...so what the fook is Starmer then...?

He and all the rest of them need running out of town

We need a new generation of conviction politicians

Foot, Thatcher, Benn, Heseltine, Jenkins. Ashdown, Smith, Skinner, Powell, Steele, Owen, Williams....

People who across the political spectrum you disagreed with but were in it for the right reasons...

Most importantly they knew what they stood for and offered you a choice....

Starmer and his ilk drag this country along hindered with a cripple's foot stumbling from one disaster to the next....

It's been that way for 25 years...

We deserve so much better for the taxes we pay....

I agree with a lot of that. Our politicians are awful and getting worse.

They need more pay, no second jobs and no "gifts".

Some are dodgy, Jenrick and planning permission for a mate is a great example, but Farage is off the scale.

Great post
You’ve hit nail on head
I do not like the public persona of Farage , not because he’s “ Tory, posh, southerner or “ rich” ; just think he’s smarmy and techy

However, I like many reform proposals

I don’t like Burnham either as he’s professional headworkwer, as devious as they come

I like Badenoch a lot

Forgotten whete I am now ; it’s the humidity

Reform would be better off without him. The Tories are probably glad he is there at the moment.

Jumping on? The other morning was the first time he's faced the media since the 'gift' was uncovered and he had an absolute nightmare. Not least because of the fact that he gets stroppy at the first hint of any kind of scrutiny. Nick Robinson did a good job of questioning Farage's stance on crypto after his £5 mil bung. He's pretty much got away with it compared to the grief Starmer got for some glasses and suits. Ben Habib's accusations about Farage and Johnson have also been ignored by the right wing press and media.

Perceptive and correct
Farage is actually a liability
Zia Yusuf would be a serious contender as he’s less posh , arrogant and smarmy
Farage is a gift for the left

I'm not a fan of Farage who's just a grifter but do you really think Yusuf is less posh, arrogant and smarmy? I don't know about psoh but he's the personification of arrogance and smarminess!
