Has Farage worked out why he was against unelected EU bureaucrats' control of Britain but is OK with unelected South African oligarchs trying to do it?
Awkward question - answer deflect, deflect, deflect.
Looks and talks like a wife beating ****.
He and Tice are trying to distance themselves from brexit as well, claiming that as it's a decision we made 8 years ago, it's now boring to discuss. With no recognisable benefits leaving the EU has brought us, it's no surprise the architects of the leave campaign want us to forget they are responsible for the problems we are increasingly going to face over the next few years as the terms and conditions of the TCA, ignored and delayed by the last government, come into play.He and Tice are currently shitting bricks and trying to distance themselves from 'ickleTommeh after Musk went on a pro-Tommeh tweeting spree - they know that they need to capture votes off people who find both Tommeh and Musk repulsive
Immigration has been the single biggest issue in the electorate for about 25 years. We left the EU specifically because the electorate believed it would stop immigration. The Tories were repeatedly voted in because they were seen to be tougher on immigration.He and Tice are trying to distance themselves from brexit as well, claiming that as it's a decision we made 8 years ago, it's now boring to discuss.

They can say it's boring all day long, but it's a simple deflection from answering any direct questions from those that promoted leave but can't themselves state any positives that resulted from iit.
It's an interesting conundrum for Farage now, and one he'll probably find difficult to resolve, thankfully. To widen his support, he has to appeal to those that voted for centre left parties, which is most of the UK electorate. People that recognise brexit was a mistake, and don't consider immigration a central issue, core messages from reform that don't resonate with those he is now trying to attract.
Most people, as I said, don't regard immigration as a huge problem, and that is backed up by the opinion polls.Immigration has been the single biggest issue in the electorate for about 25 years. We left the EU specifically because the electorate believed it would stop immigration. The Tories were repeatedly voted in because they were seen to be tougher on immigration.
Any Party who is seen to be hard on immigration and is socially acceptable to vote for will get huge support.
You should go and check those studies again. In the UKGov issue tracker, immigration or EU membership has been either issue 1 or 2 pretty every single year since 2001 with EU membership being a proxy for immigration.No, mate, you've got it all wrong. Immigration hasn't been the biggest issue for the last 25 years. No one was bothered about it in 2000.

Both Farage and Tice have been on everything this morning, the media love them. The Lib Dem’s, our 3rd biggest party, don’t get a look in and Reform seem to get more publicity than many of the major parties.Richard Tice on LBC just now, one of the most car crash interviews ever - If anyone is seriously thinking of voting Reform it’s just beyond pity.
I agree. It’s the single biggest issue effecting pretty much every election in the western world right now - its arguably the main reason leave won, trump won and all these populists parties are coming into power.Immigration has been the single biggest issue in the electorate for about 25 years.

You’d almost think that these outlets want to see Farage in power. I wonder what he’s got in common with all these establishment billionaires?
If my Auntie had balls she’d be my UncleI agree. It’s the single biggest issue effecting pretty much every election in the western world right now - its arguably the main reason leave won, trump won and all these populists parties are coming into power.
If labour bring the numbers down and start controlling legal/illegal migration they’d probably win the next election.
No one will bring the numbers down. Especially Reform.I agree. It’s the single biggest issue effecting pretty much every election in the western world right now - its arguably the main reason leave won, trump won and all these populists parties are coming into power.

Has immigration ever had an adverse affect on your life in the UK? Has it stopped you pursuing a career and earning a livelihood? Are you forced to adhere to other faiths aside from your own? Are too many fish and chip shops being phased out in your locality for curry houses?Immigration has been the single biggest issue in the electorate for about 25 years.

Reform where the 3rd biggest party by vote share at the last election.
