Probably the most sucessful politcal figure of the last 10 years

Rubbish

Do I need to bring up the letter again? He was known for supporting fascism and hitler.

Or he was in his school days. Is there anything nazi-like from his time as a grown up?

Watch from 6.00 to 6.50 for an amusing brief misunderstanding where Farage thinks Murray is defending the George Floyd incident and tips his hand. In brief, Marray says (incorrectly to be honest, but anyway) that "no one defends what that officer did" and he means that in the sense of no one should/can and they don't, but Farage seemingly takes it to mean that it's unfair that no one defends it and that someone should, until he earnestly asks "would you defend it?" and gets a shocked reaction from the other guy.

He quite blatantly wanted the guy to say that people should be defending the officers in that situation but are "too scared to do that" - not realising that even this nob thinks that incident was indefensible. Heh.

Could lead to quite an awkward conversation for anyone supporting Farage, if they had a Jewish friend.

To be fair I don't agree with judging people on crap they said as a teenager; I know someone who is an asylum lawyer at a non-profit who loved a racist joke or 20 at school. Teenagers come out with all sorts of absolute nonsense that they're horrified by as adults.

That said, there are plenty of indications at the very least that Farage hasn't changed his spots much since those days, given the stuff that he's STILL coming out with.

Apart from his continued anti-immigrant rhetoric? His use of nazi imagery?

If you are a reformed Nazi, you don't keep most of the opinions you held, but dress them up for polite society.

:joker:

slim its not going to work no matter how hard you try. DO you have any idea how much work Nigel has done with war vets and going to visit war graves?

what tosh

What nazi imagery?

Hasn't he been calling for an Australian style system rather than being outright anti-immigrant? Either way, you can be against uncontrolled immigration and nazis :shrug:

Do you know that the rise of nazism was built on the backs of WW1 vets? As though the military isn't automatically skewed in that direction.

I don't mind having these conversations with you, but I'd appreciate it if you tried to educate yourself first.

As an example

:suspect:

any proof of this?

SO Nigels interest in our war effort against the Nazis, his support for our war charities who look after our war veterans and his interest in how Britain defeated the Nazis (he lived a stone's throw away from a base as a child) is why he is a NAZI?

:hehe:

er no

and while we are at it, also on topic since Trans was in discussion too, this is what Farage said about that back in 2017

not on their own though

not that i can judge about this since the dutch army surrendered after few days and royals fled to britain :joker:

How many archived propaganda videos did people have to trawl through to find one that matched a poster he made?

There's only so many ways a big line of people can be portrayed, so it's probably a coincidence.

Visiting war graves proves nothing. Corbyn visited war graves, and of course he was known as the great British patriot.

that brexit party too, lots of problematic people in it

Ann Widdecombe, Piers Corbyn, those elitist Grant Sisters (Alice, Beatrice)

they all fit in well with Farage, and also most of those have been caught on either racism, transphobia, homophobia, elitism

Farage's grandfather, Harry Farage, was a private who fought and was wounded in the First World War.

‘The BLM ‘problem’

I’ll give the video a miss thanks

Nigel pulling "the old double bluff" :joker:

crafty :worry:

I think it's a problem that an important cause has been hijacked by a movement which constantly riots and leaves a trail of destruction :shrug:
