Farage played a game here in my opinion. He knew if he crawled out of the woodwork again with a name like "The Brexit Party" he would get support from Brexiteers frustrated with the Government. I can't stand the man
But Nigel is a MEP for next 6months.I totally get why a lot of people voted for the Brexit party, as they voted with the thought they would then deliver Brexit, but I still can't imagine voting to put Farage in a position of power. I'm sure he was trying to get Brexit to happen as quickly as possible instead of trying to get the best deal (which as much as I dislike May as well, she seemed to be trying to do), which imo could be catastrophic.
That woman just....urgh I've never liked her, Completely pointless politician!Oh god Widdi's back after getting thrown around the dance floor she's now throwing her weight around on sky news apparently these results mean the people don't need any other opportunity now to be heard ! Errr yea right O Anne .
If there's a General Election before the leave date, I can't really see Farage wanting to be Prime Minister and everything that entails tbh, it just seems like he wants to get out of Europe no matter what and doesn't care about the consequences (or party policies beyond Brexit by the sound of it). He'll be laughing all the way to the bank along with the likes of Reece-Mogg, etc, whilst the rest of us plebs get screwed. I think he did have a point when he said certain countries shouldn't have joined the Euro currency ( I'm glad we didn't either) but not much else. I'll never forget that disgusting poster he unveiled; it happened to be not long before poor Jo Cox was murdered. It may have been a coincidence but I'd hate to think it emboldened some nutjob to go ahead with it. It was very irresponsible of him to say he'd pick up his rifle if Brexit doesn't go ahead, he must know some people would hang on to his every word.
I fell into the trap of thinking the EU was bombarding us with all these rules and regulations but it's only for our good at the end of the day imo. They don't implement any rules without our go-ahead and we're the ones who came out with a lot of the Health & Safety stuff apparently.
It never made sense to me why Brits living or working in other EU countries weren't eligible to vote in the 2016 referendum, considering this would've had a direct impact on their lives. I reckon it would've swung the vote and we wouldn't be in this mess. It saddens me to hear so many medical and care home professionals understandably no longer feel welcome and have left the UK. Let's hope that Ā£350M on the side of that bus wasn't all lies.
