    I wouldn’t say I’d vote for Brexit again mate but it’s far from the disaster we were told it was going to be for our economy.

    Losing the single market made life difficult but we have adapted and we cope.

    If I’d know the U.K. would be like it is now when I voted for it then I would’ve voted to remain.

    We are worse on immigration now than we were before Brexit.

    And the Tory w ankers still don’t think there’s a problem!!! Even with the borders!!!! Cleverly then says Farage has taken over Reform for self promotion - what a stupid statement. At least Farage understands many of the issues and has charisma rather than being a dull detested rich boy!

    The Tories are going down like the Titanic and are so arrogant they still don’t understand the anti feeling towards them and issues. Perhaps if they looked at Farage and to a degree Trump and draw a picture of why their popularity is huge and then come up with the solution. You don’t have to like a person if their policies appeal!

    Immigration would probably be even worse had we stayed in the EU, we would be subject to all of their dictats. The reason why we cannot control immigration in a way that would satisfy (most of) the public is the ineptitude of out politicians to take the very difficult decisions that would thwart the left wing judiciary.

    Yeah 100%, you definitely know where you stand with Farage. I mean last week he said he wasn't standing as an MP, yesterday he announced he is. I actually laugh at how much faith people have in this conman. You are just another gullible sheep happy to accept whatever he says.

    Here are some selected favourites of 'knowing where you stand' with Farage....

    "I said I wanted my country back. Well now I want my life back...I am not a career politician... I won't be changing my mind again, I promise you"
    Nigel Farage, stepping down from public life.
    5 July 2016


    "If Brexit is a disaster, I’ll go and live abroad"
    Nigel Farage, October 2021
    "Brexit has failed"
    Nigel Farage, May 2023

    "70% of the laws in the UK are made by the EU"
    Nigel Farage, January 2016
    The Independent House of Commons library put it at just 13.2%

    "Brexit will be Easy"
    Nigel Farage, September 2016

    "Free EU visa travel for 75 million Turkish citizens is another reason to vote to leave the EU and take back control of our borders"
    Nigel Farage, November 2015

    "In a 52-48 referendum this would be unfinished business by a long way. If the Remain campaign win two-thirds to one-third, that ends it."
    Nigel Farage, May 2016
    "The last thing we need is a second referendum"
    Nigel Farage, January 2018


    I could literally go on forever. The guy is a snake.

    He probably will get voted in by suckers who will fall for his lies again. Hey ho. This is the level of sewer politicians we have in this country and its who we vote for. So Clacton deserve everything they get if they do vote him in.

    According to the OBR, our GDP has decreased 4% primarily because of Brexit. The cost of Covid will be a drop in the ocean compared to what Brexit will end up costing us.

    I can’t believe what I am reading here, this ‘says it like it is’ mentality is one thing, but offering a solution is another. Yet this Farij doesn’t have one.

    The issue with migration isn’t actually the fault of any party despite them making calls and making matters worse. It needs to be looked at both naturally and internationally. No party promise is going to work, it’s needs a joint effort or collaboration to get it sorted. Rather than use this as an election pledge - it’s not going to work and parties should stop using it.

    Internationally wtf is going on? it’s not just a UK problem is it? It’s needs a global answer.

    F kin farij, how is he still relevant.. oh but he says it like it is. Brexit went well for him.

    When living standards decline and the cost of living goes up. Then populist sentiment rises.

    Governments, who are so often the reason for the declining living standards, are only to happy to blame immigrants for their own failures.

    You are right, it happens all over the globe.
