Far from being a patriot, Farage is a traitor projecting Russian and American far-right influence into the UK. He has turned the UK from an independent country into a battlefield in the international kleptofascist axis' war against democracy.

If you taxed every Billionaire in the UK so they only had £1bn you would get £1.1tn, an entire year’s worth of tax revenue.

It would affect only 173 People.

Tax the Rich, they’ve stolen all the money and dodged tax for decades.

It‘s time for payback.

It continues to tell you everything you need to know about British politics and media that the only person who has ever had to apologise for Nigel Farage's long history of inflammatory and racist comments, is a journalist who accurately reported them as such

Farage isn't only a racist, but a bully too. And he's continued that behaviour as an adult. He uses his supportsn as a mob to intimidate those who get in his way. Sometimes online, sometimes in the real world. Add that to his dishonesty and corruption, and it makes his utterly unfit for high office
17 year old Nigel Farage targeted 9 year old Yinka Bankole and repeatedly and systematically racially harassed him for a year. “Where are you from?” Farage asked. “That’s the way back to Africa” with an accompanying hand gesture pointing towards a place far away. This continued *every* morning.

Watched BBC 6 o clock news. Just a completely unserious broadcast. Chris Mason, acting like a children's entertainer, giving a prolonged impenetrable editorial. Not a whiff of informative content about the Budget or what it means for the country. Just playschool blah blah bollocks.

Russia's ambassador to the UK, Yakovenko, boasted about Brexit to another diplomat:

Today, Farage’s close ally, leader of Reform in Wales, was sentenced to 10yrs for taking bribes from Russia.

Having Johnson & Cummings in Downing Street when Covid struck was, just like Brexit, an entirely avoidable disaster caused largely by utterly appalling journalism. And now exactly the same clowns, arses & bigots with bylines are rolling out the red carpet for Farage.

I've had a missile blow up next to my airplane, been shot at dozens of times by anti-aircraft fire, and launched into orbit — all for my country. I never thought I'd see a President call for my execution.
