If Farage is to be our next PM he must first select a few hundred people, finance their election campaigns, etc.. He is wealthy, but can’t imagine him footing the bill. So who will, and why? Certainly not in the name of democracy.

Foot the bill? Why Putin will. And the Trump crowd in the US is salivating to get their hands on certain assets in the UK.

The NHS. Flaggers don’t realise they are promoting a person who will sell off their, and their family’s right to, free at the point of care, healthcare. They may well be sentencing to death someone who cannot pay for private insurance. Farage is off to America next week rather than Parliament.

Quite. These days it seems spelling it out for many people doesn't seem to matter. The bots are working overtime to further nationalist regimes that might be closer to Trump and Putin.

Cruelly devious really, Farage persuading people to support him when he is working toward something that will be to their detriment, if they can’t afford to pay private health insurance. We must hope his supporters and families will never be critically ill or have a serious accident.

The super rich in the USA. The ones who are scared to death of Socialism Sadly it is working for them. Labour is being slated by all most everyone, playing in2 the arms of Farage who wants to stop funding our NHS with Tax & privatise it to make the SuperRich, richer selling us Medical Insurance

Starmer is playing his cards well ignoring media refuk obsession. The abhorrence felt since Farage/Yusuf revealed their latest plans for refugees has opened many eyes. TV questioned his lying today. Let flaggers fly/paint flags, say nothing, ignore the bait to respond. Bullies in a playground?

Sadly June, not many people will read what Farage said about paying the Taliban, and next to no UK Newspaper will cover it. Like all his dross he will get away with it. And his popularity keeps growing. We , the UK are stuffed, it will be Reform next time.

The realities of the UK economy after 40 years of neoliberalism plus Brexit will destroy any party that tries to run the nation. Deporting people of colour en masse can only keep people happy for a very limited time.

''Deporting people of colour en masse can only keep people happy for a very limited time.'' Just long enough to foment a new wave of Racists... And coax obscene amounts of money to be 'Donated to the cause'' ....Which is the point of the exercise...

Maggie Thatcher (Tory), served as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom from 1979 to 1990 she introduced laissez-faire economics onto us which is a pure, or raw, form of capitalism. The UK voters loved her so much they kept voting her in. Policies like hers hurt a country for generations.

So ironic. Skilled workers voted her in because she promised to increase wage differentials. Next thing they knew, she had wiped out most of their jobs.

It is and always will be the Conservative why and ReformUK are Conservatives on Steroids, they will decimate what's left of our manufacturing, and rip out most of the jobs in the Government sector. The Departments we need, just like Trump has.

Yes Labour imposed wage restraints 2 try and control inflation which was out of control due to the OPEC Oil crisis OPEC Oil crisis October 1973 to March 1974 Oddly Labour got the blame for the Oil crisis as well Just like in 2018 World Economy crash caused by USA sub-prime Lending, was their fault

Not many of Farage’s voters, perhaps, but millions watch the news on TV, which has shown lots of clips. Don’t normally watch GMB, but they did show clips of Farage out and out lying today. Won’t change his fervent fans but makes others think.

Uumm I really do think we are going 2 get Farage next time Maybe that is what the UK needs a dose of far right wing racists who will take away our NHS amongst other things be4 (like Brexit) they realise what they had Sadly once the NHS is made 'for profit' it will never return to public ownership.

Why do you think he spent all those weeks away from his constituency, at Mar-a-Lardo? The same people who funded tramp, are paying Far-Age.
