The battle is joined in this country at last between the Real Foes: the People versus the Political Class which does not care for them
and is opposed to looking after their needs.

The problem is that comments like these are only "half woke" in that they identify the problem of self-interested political class... But then somehow manage to fail to realise that Farage does not fall outside of that world and is as much a self-interested, self-promoting career politician as any high profile Labour or Tory politician.
