#Farage promised freedom and left us chained to debt.
Covid bonds, weak trade, lost investment, now the budget bleeds.
Every tax rise should carry his name. #faragetaxes
He wanted sovereignty. He delivered insolvency. He lied, He walked away. #RejoinEU is the solution not ReformUK.

One person having the power to upend entire industries and economic sectors on a whim every day that puts companies out of business and workers out of jobs with no legislative input is an autocracy, regardless of whether that person initially acquired power through an election.

Farage kicking off about vegan tampons shows just how much period stigma still exists

The fact that Farage is married to a woman astounds @wordsbyhg.bsky.social - because he has clearly never listened to one.

If he had, he wouldn't speak in the way he does.
