Of course he does. He took money from Russia.
UK Politics
General Discussion for politics in the UK.
Please don't post to both !uk_politics@feddit.uk and !unitedkingdom@feddit.uk .
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric politics, and should be either a link to a reputable news source for news, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread. (These things should be publicly discussed)
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.
!ukpolitics@lemm.ee appears to have vanished! We can still see cached content from this link, but goodbye I guess! :'(
Oh great, now we're going to have a load of Putin supporting bilge from the right-wing shit-pipes over here now.
Falange has always been a Putin stooge.
We clearly need to step it up
Can we drench him in whatever stink bombs are made of? Or henna? Maybe litres of red food colouring?
Something he can't wash off
Edit: no idea how I ended up replying to myself
"Now."
Strong "she was wearing a skirt so she asked to get raped" energy from this douchebag.
So she asked to get milkshaked
What an asshat, someone needs to throw another milkshake at him

He doesn't need more victim cards to play.
I'm still fine with him getting splashed with food or other organics every single time he tries to speak publicly
He should emigrate to Russia.
He can go help defend the Russian occupiers in Crimea when Ukraine cuts them off and starts hunting them down.
i wonder what nigel's h*xbear account is?
Oh the fucking gymnastics they'll be concocting now!
Nigel Farage should be considered, then, an enemy-agent within everywhere in NATO.
Period.
Are people denying Russia was provoked? That seems like basics.
There are too many stupid people who believe everything he says. More milkshakes please.
issue is his supporters will see milkshake and think left wing elite. We need a farmer with a muck spreader.
Can't wait for the day Nigel Farage can no longer claim anything tbh.
His gravestone will read, it was all the EUs fault. He can't let it go. He is both talentless and an egomaniac, it makes for an annoying combination.
The said stone may smell of piss. If it does not, I’ll be quite happy to oblige.
I thank you in advance for your service to the country.
I think what has been enlightening about this election is seeing how many 'own goals' the Reform party are scoring now that they've been given enough rope to hang themselves with. It reminds me of when they let Nick Griffon on Question Time back in 2009/10 and he absolutely withered under scrutiny.
Yes, there will be a hardcore of people who are going to vote for Reform - maybe even because of gaffes like this. However this is repellent to the wider electorate. Imagine if they were semi-competent and just ran as populist Tories without letting the mask slip immediately. Personally, I'd be much more concerned.
Instead of trying to screw over our country any more, why don’t you just go and enlist?
Farage presumably sympathises with the milkshake throwers, who only did so because they'd been provoked.
Fuck off frog face.
On one hand, Farage is a massive cunt, an enemy of the state, and the man responsible for irreparable damage to UK politics due to Brexit.
On the other, if Reform is going to run against the Tories, there's a real opportunity his tinpot party takes the Gammon/flag-shagger vote away from Sunak's populist run as Tory leader, and in a month we see the Tory party get absolutely annihilated.
Years ago, I said that it was quite sad to see that Conservative's had lost their party to the populism of the Boris era, because many MP's that wanted to see a strong union (bear in mind the full name of the Tories is the Conservative and Unionist Party) were expelled from the party and ostracised to make room for grifters under BoJo. While I'm no conservative, many voters value conservatism in their politics, and while I don't like Starmer much either, he's basically the closest thing to a Conservative AND a Liberal in major party politics in the UK.
My vote is probably with the Greens this year, but in many areas Labour should absolutely destroy the Tories, hopefully to the point where they become the third or fourth party in the UK.
This plank also believes that Trump won the election...
No, he's a lying toerag. He says that Trump won but he thinks ordinary people are stupid and will believe him because he's so blokey. Turd.
Thought experiment if Farage had a come to Greta moment and because an environmental activitist. Would his fans follow him or would he be dumped.
Does Farage stir the people or is he just riding the current?
He simps for Trump, Which tells you all you need to know about his followers.
I think the latter.
It's always interesting watching the far fringes of left and right come to the same conclusions, almost as if the same person had laid the trail of propaganda pointing to it.
Can't we dunk em in milkshake every time he lies?
Sounds like a waste of milkshake. We should be dunking him in something much less edible.
doesn't need to be a fresh vat of milkshake every time.. just reuse until no longer liquid
