Many years ago, before the formation of the European Union, the world--including me--looked to a united Europe, patterned after the United States of America, as one of the great events of world history.

The European Union was hailed as the fulfillment of that great dream.

It failed.

The European death wish, which brought Europe to the brink of suicide so many times, from which the USA saved Europe so many times, proved just as deadly to a European Union as to any other European endeavor.

Suicide is in the heart of Europe.

Suicide is in the heart of the European Union.

In fact, it appears that the European Union will enable Europe finally to commit suicide, where all the religious wars, the plagues and famines, the World Wars, the Cold War, Naziism, communism, and all other suicidal efforts failed.

Farage is desperate to avoid any taint of anything that could be construed as racism or bigotry by association. Its the reason why he has sold Islamosceptics down the river by abandoning UKIP and throwing his old colleagues/supporters under the bus.

Its particularly important to him to do so because the Brexit Party is also full of leftist Brexiters (yes they do exist) who will not be happy at cooperating with such people. The way he sees it he has to avoid damaging the party’s image by engaging in any controversy outside of Brexit.

Other than on Brexit, Farage is just a typical, bog standard virtue-signalling politician pursuing expediency over principle. I guess I can kind of understand it if it is the only way of actually securing Brexit, but it still leaves a sour taste in my mouth the way he has sold out every other principle.

has sought to persuade Europe's nationalist parties to set aside their differences and form a 10-party European Alliance for People and Nations in the new assembly.

Huh? I thought most of the so-called "far-right" nationalist parties were against the EU? The big thing with Europe now was everyone voting in people that didn't like the EU and more countries might be heading out?
