Thanks for that, if you have any links to sites to read what Farage has said in this regards, much appreciated. I had a sort of inkling about Boris, but not much sauce upon which to base it. Other than a few negative comments about Trump a couple/three or so years ago.
Sure. I’ll try to dig up some of those comments from Farage.
I saw recently on YouTube that Boris sucked when he drove Top Gear’s Reasonably Priced Car many years ago.
So there’s that...
Here’s a link to a recent article where Nigel criticizes Boris for his behavior towards Trump.
There are some older comments Nigel made when Theresa May was still Prime Minister that I was looking for but haven’t found them yet. At the time Trump was speculating on who might step in after May left and referred to Boris as a friend. I don’t remember the exact way Farage put it but he implied that the feeling was not mutual. Of course, Trump was being diplomatic in the same way he is when he calls Xi his friend.
My take on Boris is based on me trying to connect the dots, and I could be wrong, but I see a lot of circumstantial evidence to support it, plus my gut tells me he’s a phony. When he defends Brexit and other positions he now supports, he sounds insincere - like a Marco Rubio, or Paul Ryan, or take your pick of RINO’s.
Boris’s family background is a little suspect. His father is an economist who worked for a time at the World Bank. His brother was against Brexit. On top of that, whenever he gets the opportunity to show that he’s independent of Trump he does so. These are usually petty meaningless differences over things like keeping the British NHS independent in any trade negotiations with U.S. Trump has no interest in breaking up Britain’s socialist health system, but Boris frequently likes to trot out the strawman that he will not allow any trade deal to weaken the NHS.
In Boris’s first joint press conference with Trump after he became PM some British journalist sabotaged Trump with the question of whether or not he would include health care in trade negotiations with UK. Trump seemed surprised by the question and gave a general comment that every thing would be open for discussion. But Boris made a big show of responding that he would protect the NHS and that it was off the table in any negotiations. It was all a set up by Boris IMO to show is ‘independence’ from Trump.
The bottom line is, Trump could care less about the NHS. He merely needs someone in the UK who will cooperate with his efforts to take down the puppet masters, help with things like getting Assange extradited, and in general, cleaning out the operatives in the UK who have been cooperating with our own deep state. Someone who is so defensive about proving his independence regarding insignificant issues is likely someone who is controlled and has no independence when it comes to the big issues.
That’s my take.
