Nigel Farage

You’re right about the non clinical roles - I couldn’t agree more.

But I wouldn’t call 1.2M immigrants this year ‘small’ in any context.

Net migration was about 672k, so just under 1% of the population. The non-clinical roles stuff needs addressing, there's absolutely no need for it.

I think it was banned for being so fecking boring with the song dragging on and on.

He does seem to have form for this? Reckon the screenshot below refers to this incident but he also used a pro-IRA word without understanding the meaning. Ridiculous lack of street smarts.
He's not the one using these words though, he's being asked to say them in Cameo requests https://www.gbnews.com/celebrity/itv-nigel-farage-racism-im-a-celeb https://www.politico.eu/article/nigel-farage-pro-ira-message-birthday-cameo-video/

Yeah seems he doesn't care what he says as long as he gets money https://metro.co.uk/2021/04/16/payi...videos-isnt-the-slam-dunk-you-think-14416607/

There were examples in those articles. Here's another one https://www.thepinknews.com/2023/11/30/nigel-farage-cameo-homophobia/

It literally says above in the Metro article he doesn't really understand what he's saying though and he's asked to say all sorts of random things about Bugs Bunny etc he has no understanding of. Same with the IRA thing.
Take your point though, maybe I'm just too young to make that judgement as I'm mid thirties so not quite in the age group. I'd never heard 'nog' or the same thing with the i.

I think the sad truth is that a reason why a lot of people across various classes like Nige is at least he’s passionate about issues that affect them/us, such as the NHS and immigration. What is Starmer passionate about in regards to improving the country?

Pretty much everything if you bother to listen to him.
Anyway, poor old Nigey lost again. He Lao got the easiest of the last trials. Bye bye Nigey

This is said constantly but when you ask for examples none are given. There must be 1000s as Farage is always somewhere talking about his views.

People in France are not being persecuted.

There's been a fair few examples given on this thread already I'm sure.

Okay so got round to watching the video in question and there might be a bit of fake news here.
When I read “You will get n#g dick for Christmas” I automatically thought of an abbreviation for an offensive word for a black person. But what he actually says is “You will get nog dick” which apparently means small as per the screenshot?
To be fair there does seem to be a phrase “nig-nog” but if he meant that why not say it? https://bylinetimes.com/2023/11/29/...phobic-racial-slur-in-personal-message-video/
