Watch live from the ‘Meet @Nigel_Farage’ town hall event which is being held for locals in the district of Clacton to hear directly from the leader of Reform UK
(Excerpt) Read more at x.com ...
This immigration crisis is a national security crisis..
‘We have no idea who they are... No idea!’
Huge turnout
1,000 or so
They’re going to elect him ...
“I put it to you that the quality of life of every single one of us has diminished with this population explosion!”
“We just cannot cope”
“Enough is enough!”
He’ll carry his constituency not clear if a coalition can be put together to make him PM. Remember the UK does not directly elect the PM. Whichever party or can put together enough like minded members elects the PM. I think they might have to suffer some liberal (Labor) madness first.
He is happy being opposition. Says its over.

Hope so. I pray for his safety.
A Muslim is going to try to kill this guy. He does NOT have sufficient protection, as the milkshake girl proved the other day.
Reading Churchill's account of WW2, The Second World War (V. 2: Their Finest Hour) I recall what Churchill said about being elected PM in May of 1940. He was relieved that, FINALLY (!) being PM (he was First Lord of the Admiralty when elected PM) he was able to "rule" with ease, i.e., organize, write memos quickly, follow up quickly, and grind on people who were not doing what they should (and with him in command, given the UK's perilous status in the world, EVERYBODY was doing what he should!).
The book should be required reading for anyone who considers himself educated. Churchill's memos are reproduced in great detail and comprehensiveness, and illuminate his thought processes and organizing skills.
I rant on about this because it resonates so strongly with the pathway of Farage as he ascends government in the UK.
To me, he and Churchill are eclipsing or occulting in their life "arcs" as they say.
To be sure, their common past lives as journalists of significant standing are amazing bases of comparison between the two.
In my estimation, it gives (gave) both of them unexcelled command of facts when debating or speaking extemporaneously. It also gives (gave) both the ability to summarize, master the rhetoric, explain things quickly to others, and GET ON WITH IT because you have a hard deadline.
This kind of urgency, agency, and organization in a leader inspires confidence, which they do (did). To see Farage speak is to see someone who wants to fight and wants to reform. And to WIN.
It is JUST THE TONIC the Brits have been longing for since Churchill noted 'Their Finest Hour'. Truth is the Battle of Britain was not the finest hour of the UK, which I believe lies somewhere in the future, as does the finest hour of the US.
England civilized the entire world, and in a benign way. There is NO WAY we Americans can ignore our profound kinship and our civilizational debt to them. Of course the more remote parts of the world have been civilized by them as well: ex-Commonwealth nations, Commonwealth nations, and all the other smelly mooks living in Third World hell holes, too. If they are not ship shape they at least have been exposed to and challenged by the UK's excellent culture and civilization.
When people say the UK is past-prime or goners I say bollocks. Same way I say that when they say the US is toast. It is garbage, a cheap-lazy psyop.
Regarding this Fifth Great Awakening, or MAGA, decent people have been waiting for this worldwide house-cleaning for a century, and man, we are seeing it develop daily: It is here!
Farage, the witty, articulate, cheerful warrior is a large part of it.
Best of all is the fact that Farage is a smoking+drinking man who really doesn't give two $#*ts about what the Karens have to say about that.
He is definitely not a dweeby bespectacled Speaker of the House walking around briskly to the House gym so that he can write even more energetically his strongly worded letters.
Watch Farage hawk his Gin on YouTube (it is awesome):

Churchill used to wear his pink silk bathrobe while he had breakfast in bed, drinking Pol Roger Champagne, smoking Romeo y Julieta cigars and later in the morning switching over to dilute scotch and sodas. (Or vice versa). That was before noon, and while dictating minutes (memos) to his War Cabinet via his female secretary.
Some proto-Karen was giving Churchill a hard time about his personal habits one time and asked him if he ever exercised.
Churchill: "The only exercise I get is being a pallbearer at the funerals of my friends who exercise."
We are going to see someone with the same wit and joie de vivre as Churchill in the person of Farage, and it is going to be wonderful.
Wonderful post. I’m glad you enjoy the content. 😂
Will be interesting to see what happens July 4!
The ‘protection’ is a joke you’re right.
