Nigel Farage

[super_city_si]

People live on social media, attention span is going down and down and they lap up headlines and disinformation.
Elon Musk got Trump into power and he will do the same with Farage over here. i hope i'm wrong of course.

I think you've every chance of being right. Musks new agenda push on X is now to eradicate traditional media and publications as credible sources of news and have everyone get their news from X. We're fucked.

more of the world needs to do what Romania are doing and where external interference is found launch a re-run of elections to counter the fiddling

Until you get the result you want and then declare it legitimate?

The adults and defenders of our democracies are a blessing upon us all.

So called normal media isn't helping by giving him constant media coverage in comparison to the Green Party leader with the same amount of seats.

What is normal media?

Can you point me in the direction of the 103 page thread on the Greens leader or the 239 page thread on the Green Party?

That’s the reason why he gets media coverage. It’s because some of you can’t stop talking or focusing about him.

There is certain amount of irony that those who think Farage, the Mail, Tommy boy and GB news get to much exposure when they are spreading the word for them.

Mainstream media and social media are linked nowadays, it's all about hits or viewers. What they see as being talked about will affect who gets a mention, slot, interview etc.....

Personally I would much prefer people to talk about the environment but there you.

For those who do it don't give exposure to those you think get too much exposure if it bothers you.

An up to date thread for all things Farage.....

 

[Heartofoakes64]

I suppose he is like all politicians, trust him at your peril

Just to get us going, sorry for the cross post but if it keeps Chippy Boy happy.....

Reform UK leader Nigel Farage breached MPs' rules 17 times by failing to register financial interests totalling £384,000 within the 28-day limit, the parliamentary commissioner for standards has ruled.

Daniel Greenberg said that following an investigation, external he had concluded that the breaches were "inadvertent" and therefore would not be recommending any sanctions for the Clacton MP.

He added that Farage had apologised and had promised to meet the deadline in the future.

The interests that Farage failed to report on time include payments from GB News, Google, X and the Cameo app.
In his reply to the commissioner, Farage said he was "sincerely sorry" for the rule breaches adding that there had been "no malicious intent".

He also said he had been "extremely let down by a very senior member of staff".

During a meeting with the commissioner on 11 December 2025, Farage said he had been "a little bit shocked" by the "gross administrative error".

"You may say, why don't I enter those things myself. Well I don't do computers... so I rely on other people to do those things for me.

"I'm not, I'm afraid, computer literate, which makes me yet more an oddball than perhaps I was before."


That was a report from January of this year. Now, wouldn't you think that if all was above board with the £5m bung, he would have mentioned it at the stage he was being investigated for other stuff ? It has also gone very quiet regarding the Clacton property that his girlfriend "bought" despite her having no income. I wonder who approached who regarding the £5m.

"Hi Chris, Nigel here. I know I'm not an MP or ever will be again but can you give me £5m for my security that the government won't give me becasue I'm no longer involved in politics (according to Tice over the weekend)"

or

"Hi Nigel, Chris here. I'm really worried about your well being so how about me giving you £5m for nothing. I know you're not in politics any more so can't have impact on UK crypto legislation so let me just transfer it to you as a gift.

[Bazzmand Show]

£5 million in donations via Crypto no issues apparently. Failing to pay council tax, definitely a headline worth talking about.

Absolute joke.

 

[mosssideblue]

A lying, grifting politician who is a major red flag. People need to wise up pdq

Now watch your language. Ferrari on LBC this morning was giving the government a hard time because Starmer used the word grifter. He even referred back to Rayner using the word scum-5 years ago!

 

[threespires]

A thread for all things Farage.....

Are you going to run a book on how much bird he'll do when the long arm of the law eventually catches up with him?

Do you not see him pumping iron and smoking shisha with Andrew Tate? ;-)

 

[expatblue]

Can't have enough threads about Farage, he must be very popular.

 

[blueinsa]

His 19 threads already obviously not enough.

20 is a nice round number I suppose ;-)

Grifting **** who will do to us what Trump is doing to America and the world.

Fuck us all over whilst getting very very rich.

I thought that this was the type of thing MPs had staff to make sure it was done.
