Now I did "fab" a "Gimp" mask, but it certainly wasn't him.

Now; if you had been watching his show, he explained that he was away for 2 months assisting and supporting the English elections and how well did his party do?

Very well, wouldn't you agree

I find it hard to agree with Nigel. I find it even harder to like him. But, the changes (for good or bad (delete as appropriate)) that he has been the genesis for, is astonishing… for one man. Why?

Despite all the complaining about him, whether in here, on the street, in the pub, in parliament, Tory party, Labour party… not one individual has come forward able to provide a match to him, let alone an ‘antidote’ to him.

Again, agree or disagree, he nonetheless seems much more able to connect with vast swathes of voters who claim they feel let down, ignored, undermined, etc by the traditional political parties.

I’m not saying he is the right answer, nor is offering the right answers (in my view), but the complacent and we-know-best traditional politicians have made it so easy for him… and even after a decade of what should’ve been listening & learning from Brexit, they (astonishingly) continue to make it easy for him… again and again!!!

So, I don't blame Nigel, as he is the inevitable by-product of decades of an aloof political class. Neither do I blame the public who support him, as they’re just desperate for their problems to be a priority (rather than seemingly imaginary problems or other’s problems).

So, I blame decades of career politicians who seem to exist in an academic / ideological echo chamber: Telling us how it should be, with little understanding of how it is, nor listening to what the voters actually want / believe, and with very few real-world skills or experiences between them.

If any one of the traditional parties could actually demonstrate they're genuinely listening and then go on to serve the nation, rather than impose their narrow and outdated ideologies, then Nigel would quickly fade into irrelevance.

Alas though, and given Nigel continues to surge in the Polls, Labour and Tories rather seem set on adopting the USA Democrats approach to Trump; of trying to ridicule, bully, and dismiss Nigel (and his supporters). I fear they’ll get the same result: Thus, Nigel as PM in a few years has never been more likely… in my opinion.

Yes it’s all true, and very worrying. The human rights act and the International Court of Human Rights is in his manifesto, and will be replaced. section 28 was imposed by a Right Winger, so expect something along those lines. NF is not your friend.

"I find it hard to agree with Nigel. I find it even harder to like him. But, the changes (for good or bad (delete as appropriate)) that he has been the genesis for, is astonishing… for one man. Why?

Despite all the complaining about him, whether in here, on the street, in the pub, in parliament, Tory party, Labour party… not one individual has come forward able to provide a match to him, let alone an ‘antidote’ to him.

Again, agree or disagree, he nonetheless seems much more able to connect with vast swathes of voters who claim they feel let down, ignored, undermined, etc by the traditional political parties.

I’m not saying he is the right answer, nor is offering the right answers (in my view), but the complacent and we-know-best traditional politicians have made it so easy for him… and even after a decade of what should’ve been listening & learning from Brexit, they (astonishingly) continue to make it easy for him… again and again!!!

So, I don't blame Nigel, as he is the inevitable by-product of decades of an aloof political class. Neither do I blame the public who support him, as they’re just desperate for their problems to be a priority (rather than seemingly imaginary problems or other’s problems).

So, I blame decades of career politicians who seem to exist in an academic / ideological echo chamber: Telling us how it should be, with little understanding of how it is, nor listening to what the voters actually want / believe, and with very few real-world skills or experiences between them.

If any one of the traditional parties could actually demonstrate they're genuinely listening and then go on to serve the nation, rather than impose their narrow and outdated ideologies, then Nigel would quickly fade into irrelevance.

Alas though, and given Nigel continues to surge in the Polls, Labour and Tories rather seem set on adopting the USA Democrats approach to Trump; of trying to ridicule, bully, and dismiss Nigel (and his supporters). I fear they’ll get the same result: Thus, Nigel as PM in a few years has never been more likely… in my opinion....reform have five seats...sinn fein have 7...just saying "

"I’ll be tidying my sock draw."

Do you know that if you've managed to accumulate 50 pairs of socks, and they've all become split up, there are 1225 ways of selecting a matching pair, of which only 50 will be correct? This assumes of course that every pair is distinct from every other: design, colour, length, material, thickness, texture ...

Socks are a favourite obsession of those who take an interest in problems of probability. Many of these concern someone who is awoken by an emergency in the middle of the night when the lights have failed, and has to rummage in the sock drawer, and pose the question of how many socks he/she must pick out to be able to secure a matching pair. Others prefer questions featuring hands of playing cards, but i'm a sock man myself.

This is all an excellent argument for bulk buying one uniform all-season sock. i believe Gilbert and George do this with their suits. Alternatively, one could just be daring, defy all the critics, throw off the shackles of convention, and adopt a policy of picking up any two damn socks that come to hand.

Someone who has only one leg doesn't have to face these problems, of course. i suppose it goes to show that no life is without its consolations.

Ironically Nigel Farage is utterly a career politician. Said career and the nice few quid he's made out of it has been made possible by playing on peoples fears and prejudices.

NF (sic) also very much tells us 'how it should be'. Farage is very much part of the political class/fabric- he's a career politician who worked in the City before entering politics.

Is he any more qualified to talk of the hardships faced by the marginalised than a fresh-faced Labour or tory candidate? The real world of Brussels Pubs?

Nigel becoming PM in a few years time-2029- is still unlikely. Both Labour and the tories may well have new leaders by then, the percentage of voters participating in marginal seats if higher would not necessarily result in votes for Reform,they have no foothold in Scotland and the internal machinations of Reform that will inevitably occur will impact on support levels. Not necessarily in a positive way.

"...Why watch any other channel, except maybe Sky News from time to time..."

Why watch any of them? They all talk utter s*ite!

When will people wake up to the fact that it's the multinationals who decide government policy now, regardless of who's in, and that they only continue with the charade of elections to give us the impression that voting will actually change anything significant.

Why do you think there's so little difference between the policies of all the parties?

How do you know a politician is lying?

Their lips are moving!

"

"

Very unlikely.

He needs to go from 5 seats to over 325 seats.

That requires effort to be concentrated on the most winnable seats.

The reality is he draws 2/3rds of his support from disaffected Tory voters and 1/3rd from disaffected Labour voters.

So he can pull down their vote share.

But vote share doesn't win elections - constituency seats do.

And the idea his support is concentrated enough to win 325 + . . . . I cannot see that happening any time soon.

Support for NF has been made possible by playing on people's fears. He's been able to paint himself as a 'Man of The People' despite being anything but. Criticism of the two main parties as spent forces not in touch with 'ordinary' peoples lives is in tangent with the fearmongering.

The defection of so many Tory voters in 2024 to Reform Limited was a significant factor in serving up a landslide for Labour.

It will be interesting to see the results of the by/election in Hamilton, especially after Herr Farage deployed his “P*aki-bashing” rhetoric. He thrives on division and resentment.

On the Hamilton by election he ran away from a hustings meeting as he didn't want to face the demonstration outside it and have the optics of this splashed all over the news.

Not only a carpet bagging con man but a political coward too. Other than the idiots and hard of thinking his actual popularity is fragile, he can't win and knows it. Mx

Quite clearly Reform are attracting a lot of support from both labour and conservatives.

The name calling dimwits can’t grasp that the appeal of a party apparently looking to put the interests of British people first attracts large support from both left and right of the political spectrum.

"I find it hard to agree with Nigel. I find it even harder to like him. But, the changes (for good or bad (delete as appropriate)) that he has been the genesis for, is astonishing… for one man. Why?

Despite all the complaining about him, whether in here, on the street, in the pub, in parliament, Tory party, Labour party… not one individual has come forward able to provide a match to him, let alone an ‘antidote’ to him.

Again, agree or disagree, he nonetheless seems much more able to connect with vast swathes of voters who claim they feel let down, ignored, undermined, etc by the traditional political parties.

I’m not saying he is the right answer, nor is offering the right answers (in my view), but the complacent and we-know-best traditional politicians have made it so easy for him… and even after a decade of what should’ve been listening & learning from Brexit, they (astonishingly) continue to make it easy for him… again and again!!!

So, I don't blame Nigel, as he is the inevitable by-product of decades of an aloof political class. Neither do I blame the public who support him, as they’re just desperate for their problems to be a priority (rather than seemingly imaginary problems or other’s problems).

So, I blame decades of career politicians who seem to exist in an academic / ideological echo chamber: Telling us how it should be, with little understanding of how it is, nor listening to what the voters actually want / believe, and with very few real-world skills or experiences between them.

If any one of the traditional parties could actually demonstrate they're genuinely listening and then go on to serve the nation, rather than impose their narrow and outdated ideologies, then Nigel would quickly fade into irrelevance.

Alas though, and given Nigel continues to surge in the Polls, Labour and Tories rather seem set on adopting the USA Democrats approach to Trump; of trying to ridicule, bully, and dismiss Nigel (and his supporters). I fear they’ll get the same result: Thus, Nigel as PM in a few years has never been more likely… in my opinion....reform have five seats...sinn fein have 7...just saying

Whys everyone so worried then?

Whys everyone shitting bricks?

There's nothing to worry about but everyone seems oh so upset,

Poor diddums ...nobody I know is worried...we're actually laughing at people like you who think reform will actually have an impact in upcoming elections...

Was your head in the sand last few months?

I recall many on here said during the usa election that Trump would never win, no chance in he'll would he win... and guess what... you were all WRONG.

Not once, but Twice with Trump.

And ofcourse you all said BREXIT had no chance in he'll of getting through, ohhh wait, they were wrong again

No different from the comments above "

...I don't remember saying he had no chance in "he'll" of winning...you're confusing me with some other English major. 😃

Aghhh... That's what I like about the political insight on fab, intelligent, informed comment... without having to resort to personal insults! "

You didn't like that one? Because I have others.

Anyway, because I don't share his bigoted views I and others like me are branded 'traitors' by that jumped up little Poundshop Mosely so why on earth should he be shown any courtesy in return because we sure as hell get none from him?

Also,don't forget that should the worst happen, you'll also be squarely in his sights too, as would every single one of us on here, no matter where our political views lie. Just purely because of who we are.

If Blair and his minions had paid some attention to the UKIP results and support in the early 2000s and made some adjustments to freedom of movement rules...we'd still be in the EU and Farage would be nowhere.

Middle-class liberals on here think just finding Farage funny is the solution. It's not worked so far, has it?

Mind you, you probably find 'Have I Got News For You' and 'I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue' funny.

Take your sneering into a working man's pub somewhere where they don't work from home and were never on furlough.

Tell your Farage 'jokes' and see how hilarious they find you.

Successful large following

Nice healthy bank account

And broadcasting to millions

Anyone else here as successful as Nigel?"

I don’t have the large following or broadcast to millions, but besides that I reckon I am, and it’s mine, not someone else’s.

He’s a politician. He says what people want to hear.

The proof of the pudding will be when he’s elected into power, until then hes done nothing

Half a million in 'living expenses' from Arron Banks certainly helps.

His earnings from all his outside jobs since the 2024 election now exceed £1 million (in declarations) - by far the highest of any member of parliament.

How many outside jobs does an MP need?

Is being an MP not meant to be a full-time job?

He's already getting £70k a year in free money from his EU pension.

Funny, dangerous...choose your own adjective...you know the point I'm making.

Politicians of all parties have spent the last 20/30 years hoping he'd just go away rather than look at the MEP election results that UKIP often did well in and act accordingly.

Not quite true... NF may not win at FPTP... however, he has the ability to influence policy and even change other party leaders by robbing them of votes; he is a populist and is very good at it. The other parties run in fear of him and it certainly contains their excesses! NF holds the banner for the disallusioned protest voter... so let's be thankful we have him

Read in Full, and comment on each point, don't pick and fabricate a reply as we know your beat if you do "

I won't comment on each point as they are sound bites not policies , they have zero finance to enact even a quarter of them.

And he's not fighting he's manipulating and spreading propaganda paid for by a variety of overseas interests.

Including the oil industry and American health industry who want a review of private NHS contracts so that they can take them over and sue UK under TTP rules.

Starmer is a MI5 plant. But Farage is not encumbered by any such notion of national loyalty. He's serving his masters interests and will kiss baby bottoms or anyone else's to get what they want.

People do not want him. But you would be hard put to find the newspaper articles that looks at the polls and points out that his demographic is overwhelmingly older white males and those with less than A level education.

The fastest growing support in UK is for left wing politics and that's not just younger women they are simply the most marked in swing. The polls that look at where people want to see politics focus , is not immigrants , it's cost of living, and the left (and greens) are overwhelmingly the most trusted to effect change in that area.

MI5 may have decided a split Tory reform govt in three years is the way forward for business as usual.

But if asked that's not what people want.

It is however the only option they are being presented with in mainstream media.

Labour abandoned the working class a long time ago. Someone was going to walk in to appear to fill that void.

The lazy name calling: NF, nazi, trump-adjacent, are wearing thin; and, as with Trump, won't stop people voting for him. Need better politicians, better policies and a prospect of radical change. People are not-longer buying the condescension.

Captures the point.

So many are now living in a “middle-class bubble” where, within their circle of friends, they reassure each other that they’re “progressive” and enlightened, whilst everyone else is merely “populist” (or ignorant).

What is not obvious to them, and as the May elections demonstrated, is that the bubble is bursting. What was inconceivable, just a year ago, is now a real enough threat… otherwise, why are all politicians, even Labour, now ‘turning right’; evidenced by Labour using previously unthinkable language about benefit claimants, immigrants, 2 child households, pensioners, budget-cuts, etc!

In doing so, the “progressives” are utterly ignoring those wrestling with the real impact of the cost-of-living crisis, who see their communities changing rapidly, and who are on the sharp end of fuel / benefit cuts etc.

On the other end of the wealth spectrum, they’re being hammered (again and again) for daring to have ambition and be successful, evidenced by a 153% increase in millionaires leaving the UK in 2024 (10,800 (the top 90 (yes, just 90) of whom have a combined wealth of £50bn)) compared to 2023 (4,200).

As I wrote originally… so don't get me wrong… I personally do not like Farage, and I’m not impressed with his solutions, but if you think you are safe in your “bubble”, and that you can ignore him, and more importantly ignore his growing number of supporters, is to pour fuel into his tank.

So, I foresee complacency being the undoing of the so called “progressives”.

The only antidote, is for traditional politicians to come down from their theological towers and sniff the real air we breathe. Sadly though, as the US Democrats demonstrated, it seems unlikely to happen, thus they end up paving the way for Trump / Farage.

"You think Farage isn't condescending to people with his fake man of the people schtick?

It's insulting!

This would be an example of a Logical Fallacy. Cathy Newman would be so proud.

I have no idea who Cathy Newman is and I stand by my statement. The man is an utter charlatan and as establishment as they come.

If you disagree, explain why."

You claim to be a working man who's old school Labour, rather than a middle class liberal, so if you really cannot understand why so many of 'your people' support the likes of Farage and UKIP 2.0, I doubt there's much I can say you've not heard a million times before.

Low-grade people he wouldn't have a drink with I think he once said.

No!

It's because Labour have moved on and kicked working people to the kerb!

Farage is the only card left to play.

Very true, people are voting for him, as they've ran out of options

That's an interesting point.

I think this is probably the case…

Too many just can’t seem to recognise it has nothing to do with whether or not Farage is a nice guy, or whether he is right or wrong… those are fruitless arguments that fail to see what’s truly happening… i.e. The traditional parties have made such a pig’s ear of most things and have seemingly stopped listening / representing “the voter” (their boss), that “the voter” is increasingly turning to Farage, irrespective of his credentials.

Farage is not winning voters from the traditional parties…, the traditional parties are losing them to him.

I can see the political landscape changing in the next few decades.

Multiple minority parties representing niche interests.

Eg why isn't there a Muslim oriented party? That would try and cater for quite specific views when it comes to gender or social roles.

In a fragmented political landscape a character like Farage could cut through.

All three Faragista Parties--UKIP, Brexit, Reform--have done well with protest votes. They did well at the EU parliamentary election, and recently did well at various council elections. From what I see and hear though they are running [sitting?] around like headless chickens where they are now in charge. Taken down a few Rainbow and Ukraine flags and that's about it. They have now got a toe-hold in parliament--less than one percent of MPs--so they are on the national political map. The trouble is the other main parties have such uninspiring, lacklustre leaders Farage can play on this with his false charisma and carefully orchestrated 'man of the people act'. Hopefully the bubble will burst. Someone needs to put a drawing pin in the next milkshake.

I've never claimed to be old or new anything but yes, I see myself as a working class male. I've just rocked up at work for my afternoon shift and I earn significantly less than the national average. I'm not on the breadline as I live pretty frugally and managing personal finance is probably the best developed life skill I have but I'm always conscious that if I were to lose my job, things could unravel very quickly.

I grew up under Thatcher and saw my mum and my older brother out of work for a long time under her policies and even putting aside all the bigotry and culture war nonsense for a moment, no I don't understand how working class people see a Thatcherite party like Reform as the answer unless they just aren't looking past the soundbites at what lurks beneath.

I'm not going to pretend that Labour are doing things very well and the best I can offer is that I don't think they're going any worse than before the election last year.

Perhaps I can keep you updated on how things go here in Staffordshire seeing as Reform now have control of the County Council?

So far, all they've done is try and censor the county libraries, put up a giant picture of the Dear Leader and cancelled every scheduled council meeting.

Very effective, I'm sure.

Well to answer your question why. Working class people vote for Tories or reform? And by the way I hate phrase working class. It's bosses working hard that keeps rest in jobs... But... If you look at the history of labour in power over the last 50;years and less they left us in, particularly the last time on brink of collapse, you will know why we fear and hate labour. And looking at last 9 months, nothing has changed, spend spend spend. And tax. Tax. Tax. It will end sadly as history has proven

They should be doing much more, certainly. I disagree at despise but they do seem to have rather forgotten their roots.

The Tories were never friends of the working classes and Reform are just an amplified version of that.

My biggest problem with them remains that like most people I just want to be left in peace to get on with my life

No-one should have to live in fear of discrimination or abuse, just because of who they are but that is exactly what Mr Brown Teeth and his ilk are fomenting.

He already bears some culpability for the death of Jo Cox and yet has then spent the years since repeatedly picking fights with her widow, not to mention his disgusting comment about 'without a shot being fired' less than a week after her murder.

Those aren't the actions of a merely unpleasant man, it's downright evil.

. If you believe that, your deeper in life's dh#@£#te than we thought you were. Labour left the UK on edge of bankruptcy, when bank crisis hit up UK were so far behind the rest of Europe it took years of strict Tories cuts to recover. Strange out you put so much importance on a band crisis and yet do not accept the Tories facing global energy crisis, European war, initial hit for Brexit, the COVID pandemic, and billions of pounds spend on keeping people safe at home and protecting industry. Typical blinkered laborite. And now labour are on yet another tax tax tax, spend spend spent spree. Who picks up the bill this time ????
