Just ignore it and look at Nigey’s lovely hanging baskets that he made ❤
Some posters have made some good points though. I like this discussion, it’s very respectful and robust on the whole
Hanging baskets almost sounds like a euphemism for his a.

He has a nice a actually as depicted on I’m a celeb. Do you want me to post it for you? If not don’t make it easy for me ;) 🇬🇧

That’s not very constructive is it. If you made a point that wasn’t so hyperbolic (comparing him to a murderer) we might be able to see why you don’t like him

It's ok, I'm sure you'll be the one to change him. 😉

Immigration also doesn’t hit those at the top as hard. It’s really a privilege issue- of course politicians are privileged, that’s why they can’t sort everything out properly. So frustrating :)

And the coutts issue is freedom of speech. You really don’t want to have your rights taken away by the establishment…
Again, Nigel is part of the establishment. He comes from money and he has enough of it, otherwise he wouldn't be able to have a Coutts account. He plays the "plebs" like a fiddle.

Nigel can't whinge about freedom of speech when he's had a massive platform in the media for some years now to spout his antagonistic drivel.

That's the most wholesome pic I've seen in a long time ☺ :D

Don't be fooled by him,
This is cleverly edited by people who don't like him. For example when the little girl says ''My mummy says you hate foreigners'' he says ''No, no'' and then it cuts off. They accuse him of sympathising with white nationalism and he says no, then it cuts off again.
Some of it isn't GREAT but come on, he's a smarmy politician, he's not a monster. Sure plenty of stuff from lefty politicians could be dug up if people bothered- nobody ever mentions Hunter Biden's drug addiction, thieving etc.
The Hitler Youth stuff is appalling, but it just sounds like he was being an overexcited schoolboy in the army cadets. Not condoning it, nobody would.

We're all entitled to change our minds and opinions over the years.

A few years ago, a friend gave off stink about 'so many foreigners coming to live in the UK'. I was outraged by this declaration and told him that we were so fortunate to be living a decent life and taking it for granted, and why shouldn't other poor souls who lived in horrible, poverty-stricken countries have the right to come here and have a slice of living an equally decent life.

Then, after a few years of seeing what the UK has become, with people arriving here in droves, intent on turning our nation into the ones they'd left behind, demanding this & that. So many cities now almost no-go areas for white people, and horrible, archaic rituals/cultures carried out in the name of religion ie children, girls and even animals - I'm afraid I now see his point, and I regret arguing with him because I see now that he was right to be concerned.

No-one with any decency about them wants to deny anyone else a chance of a better life, but I know if I was to escape any horrible regime/war-torn country, etc, wanting a better life for myself and my children, I think I'd be happy to live by their laws. I'd certainly not be showing my gratitude by turning on the very country that was good enough to take me in and start demanding the host country accommodated every horrible ritual that British people find offensive and abhorrent. FGM, Honour killings, Sharia Law, animal sacrifices (and even children sacrifices!) to name but a few.

Please. This really is reactionary balls. Come to London, mate. People of every culture mix and get on. I don't recognise any of what you're going on about. It wouldn't surprise me that you come from an immigrant background yourself like me (my Irish parents moved here in the 60s). Drawbridge xenophobes are the worst kind of xenophobes, after all.

And there it is. The utter contempt for ordinary working people combined with irrational hatred of the rich with which a certain faction of the left always betrays itself. It’s textbook. Orwell had the cut of that particular jib 80 years ago, and nothing has changed.

I’ve never heard Farage talk down to the average person in the street like that.

You’re obsessed with the Coutts account! They will take anyone who has enough cash. (I don’t).

I couldn’t care less where anyone banks. And what are you on about re ‘the plebs’? Who even speaks like that for the last 30 years?

Your gripes against Farage seem more a reflection of your own chippiness than anything he has done or said.

I think Pete meant "plebs" as in, that's likely what Farage and pals think of folk.

I can't disagree with the views on the left and their disdain of working class people. I abhor the 'gammons' tit and I think the 'people who vote Brexit are thick', as well as being offensive, was an absolute gift to Farage and pals. The left are increasingly inaccessible to your traditional working class Labour voter as, realistically, how are you going to want to sit alongside someone who calls you daft and uses your own lack of privilege as a means of making themselves look holier than thou, when Tabitha is down the foodbank posting photos of herself handing tins of beans out to folk from your own neighbourhood but also calling you a gammon. It just doesn't sit right and you'd feel used.

The problem is though, Farage et al have used the same people, capitalised on fears and feeling disenfranchised and underrepresented and left behind, gone down the whole 'oof man of the people down the pub' carry on when they're pretty much cut from the same cloth. They don't really give a tit. You don't hear much mention of them wanting things to be better for disabled folk, for example, or creating more social housing so folk can live in nicer homes that aren't damp as duck. The latter again are just used when migration is brought into the conversation.

Plenty of people of every culture do mix in London, which is great! London’s always been cosmopolitan. Plenty of people don’t as well. The ‘foreigners’ you’re mixing with will have integrated well into British culture and like the British, which is great! Other foreigners out of the millions that are coming do not mix. I’ll give you this, saying some cities have no-go areas and some cultures have barbaric practices like FGM in the UK is slightly hyperbolic, there’s only a few cases of FGM a year and it’s outlawed here. But the issues ARE there.
Why are you accusing her of being anti immigrant?! Where did she say that? She criticised some issues about immigration, but anti immigrant is a really blanket statement. If I go to Starbucks and they give me a dry croissant that I complain about I’m not anti croissant, I just have issues with that one 😆
