His main interest has always been in being a shit stirrer.

What the hell are you on about? How is he representing his constituents if he can't be arsed to do surgeries?
Has he established an email he can be reached on yet for constituents?

Nigel’s one “ talked “ about appearance probably achieves more than an MP that attends every sitting 🤷🏼‍♀️
This actually made me spit my tea out as it’s such a ridiculous statement. What exactly do you think he’s achieved that is actually positive and makes anything better?

I’m sure they’ll expect answers to why terrorists are priority over public safety??
How have terrorists been prioritised over public safety? I’m pretty sure the Southport murderer has been remanded in custody without bail since his arrest? What more do you want them to do with him whilst he is awaiting trial?

Do you say the whole of the Labour Party think the same because of Corbyn’s anti Semitic comment and Keir’s recent slip up about Bangladeshis? Multiple examples from one party :)
So I just google the Bangladeshi comment and it seems that all he was saying is that Bangladesh is a safe-country - which the Tories have been using constantly as an argument for their asylum policies

In the year ending March 2024, there were 3,384 asylum applications from Bangladeshis seeking refuge in Britain.

Bangladesh ranked eighth among countries with the most asylum applications, following Afghanistan, Iran, Pakistan, Eritrea, India, Turkey and Sudan.

Abdul Razzak, who volunteers as a translator in British asylum cases, said that many Bangladeshi asylum seekers have their applications granted based on human rights grounds.
I guess it's fine when the Tories say it about all the other countries because there's just no way that the UK have communities from Afghanistan, Iran or Pakistan or any of the above countries?
 
I suspect he sodding does see the issues living in London and is self aware enough to know he hasn’t experienced/isn’t experiencing the worst of it :( 🇬🇧

Irish and Italians? Hardly a sink/deprived school then, they’re wealthy immigrants to the UK in general. Greece is a poorer country but Greeks don’t tend to cause social problems.

Not a personal dig at you Pete, I understand the sting when someone attacks personal information about you and I’m not doing that, just making the point already made above that we all have blind spots regarding immigration

Sounds like a dump I’d go back to Scotland 😂 lovely scenery and open space there
( I’m joking)
The school I went to was in Scotland. I moved to England as an adult.

ETA I had an Irish friend who lived near me (when I was at school) who lived in a two bed council house with her mum, gran and her sister. They were not living the rich immigration dream.
 
Oh hell to the no, not the 'older generation' one. Come on man. He's a politician, not a doddery old lad sat in his care home in Wigan.

I'm not from a 'woke' generation and the first insult that would spring to mind if I were being deliberately provocative would definitely not be those. He's either catastrophically stupid, arrogant, or both, to do that and assume it's acceptable (and that it wouldn't get out).

Our local Facebook groups are already kicking off! There have been some dramatic arguments already over the result. As a non-Reform voter, it’s the only thing keeping me going at this point!
Rumour has it one of my local Reform councillors has profited heavily from asylum seekers by renting them out to Serco :ROFLMAO:

You do understand that Nigel Farage saying something doesn’t mean that something is true?
Didn’t he say that Brexit would be brilliant? LIE
Or that he’d been told by the Speaker that holding constituency surgeries was too dangerous? LIE
Or that the EU was costing Britain £55million a day? LIE
Or that 40 billion Turkish people were on the point of surging unchecked into Britain? LIE
Or that Britain was a member of the World Economic Forum? LIE And that Reform would cancel Britain’s membership if they got into power? LIE. I mean you can’t stop being a member of something you’re not a member of can you?
Or when he said he had received official advice to not hold surgeries in his constituency. And then parliamentary sources disputed it so he went back on his claim.

He loves sniping from the sidelines but people are seriously misguided if they think he's in politics to effect any serious kind of change or help people.
 
Local hostels for local people 😂

So what? Why do people who are not British get excluded? They are still human being even if they are not British. Would you recall all of the British ex pats who are “over running” other countries? Do you really not understand how racist your comment is?
We'll have all the geriatric British folk living in Spain back pls and we'll 'send back' the non-British folk working in hospitals here, that'll sort us right out 🇬🇧
