The attempt to finish off Farage has failed spectacularly.

Rebel Whoop! Army OOOOORAAAH!

He needs to turn out a mob and start pounding the leftists and Muzzies.....its the English, Scots, Welsh and Irish way.

We need to see videos of them falling off the docks into the Thames and Channel like the Persians in The 300.

Ahhh. My fantasies are so satisfying.

Confusion to his enemies!
Victory of his arms!

Good for him.

He shouldn’t have taken that 5 million pounds, although I don’t know the details on that, However, it didn’t stop him from winning.

Tousi says that he can still be removed from Parliament over this and will not stop the investigation.

The bi election was called because Farage dropped out thinking he could reset the clock on his corruption investigation.

Then, typical sore winner, too cowardly to attend the count because he says Essex police said there would be problems.

As someone who retired to Europe a few years ago, people in the USA really don't get an accurate report of what is happening here.

Farage is a Christian. In 2014 he described himself as a “somewhat lapsed” member of the Church of England.

In 2011 he also said “You know, you can be Christian and fun or you can be Christian and, like Cromwell, be deeply puritanical and want to control everybody”.

During the early 2010s, he advocated for the defence of Christians and what he regards as “Christian values”

In 2024, during a GB News interview, he stated that he is no longer attending the Church of England due to its “woke policies”.

In a 2025 Bloomberg podcast with Mishal Husain, he reiterated his membership in the Church of England but called the church “a catastrophe for the last 25 years”. He added that if he were a regular church attendee, he would probably attend the Catholic Church.

Nigel Farage and his party, Reform UK, are widely described by political analysts and media as anti-immigration, though Farage states he is not against all immigration.

His platform focuses heavily on sharply reducing migrant numbers and tightening national borders.

Farage stated that he is not against all immigration and has
no issue with skilled migrants who pay taxes and integrate.

Never seen a “sore winner”, and Farage is certainly not one.
Plus I wouldn't trust the anti white, pro illegals Essex Police further than I can throw em.

Nigel Farage and Zia Yusuf took a full 45 minutes of no-holds-barred questions from the press this morning.

Plenty of frothing left-wing hacks included. They answered everything.

Now imagine Andy Burnham or Kemi Badenoch doing the same. They wouldn't. They're not serious.

This is what a government in waiting looks like.

Rereading Farage’s long political history, the guy certainly has staying power.....

He’s been under constant attack for being conservative.

His massive victory returning him to power is sooooooo sweet.

You gotta wonder what Farage will tackle first.......
there’s such a “woke” mess there, his work is cut out for him.

Farage has focused on changing immigration policies:
<><>stopping unauthorized Channel crossings,
<><>reducing overall net migration,
<><>changing domestic housing and legal rules
<><>not targeting migration specifically by religion.

Candidate Farage has stated that if Reform UK forms a government, they would implement their immigration and border plans—such as “Operation Fortress”-—passing required legislation through parliament.

“Operation Fortress” proposes intercepting migrant boats in the English Channel and returning individuals safely to France.

Detention and Deportation in the works: Farage has pledged to detain unauthorized arrivals at alternative facilities like disused military sites and carry out mass deportations of individuals deemed to have entered illegally.

Legal Changes afoot: The party intends to alter or withdraw from major international human rights frameworks, such as the European Convention on Human Rights, to execute these deportation policies.

Social Housing Restrictions: Reform UK has proposed banning foreign nationals from accessing social housing unless they transition to private accommodation within a set timeframe.

Farage’s policy proposals are framed around national borders and legal status, he and members of his party frequently connect high immigration and cultural integration issues directly to Islam.

Farage has publicly asserted that certain segments of the British Muslim population hold values conflicting with British society, comments that have drawn sharp accusations of Islamophobia from political opponents and Muslim advocacy organizations.Sky

Ahh, Essex Police - not the same county force as the one that took 48 hours to discover that Anne Widdecombe* had been hit in the face by a hammer twenty-one times, and not fallen off her chair while eating lunch?
Not the same force that decided when persons unknown fire-bombed Nigel's house that it was a random burglary gone wrong?
Not the same force that decided the murderer of David Amess* acted alone when his daugther says there is evidence he was part of a conspiracy?
* both outspoken Catholics - but no need to make any connection, of course?

Reviewing his Muslim policies, you just wish Farage was an American.

In any event, Farage is a strong, longtime supporter and personal friend of Donald Trump.

Farage has openly backed Trump since his initial 2016 presidential campaign, even appearing at rallies in the United States to support him.

He frequently defends Trump’s policies and public statements in the British media, often describing himself as a friend of the U.S. President.

Despite occasional mild divergences or strategic distancing on specific foreign policy issues to align better with UK public opinion, Farage maintains his fundamental loyalty and political alignment with Trump.

We don’t get accurate reporting in the US either. It’s all biased and lies.
