What a foolish comment ramruma. Farage has changed the course of British History, pretty much single-handedly, and almost certainly to great long-term advantage for us. He cannot be held responsible for the vagaries of our electoral system, and more than the Paisley Pixie should be lauded for securing 56 times as many MPs with 40% of UKIP's votes.

xmoneyx is confused,he uses capitals for the word duel when presumably he means dual,although you could just see Farage in a duel with those enemies of Britain,you would also be fairly confident he would win.

not gonna explain in detail as it would take way too long.

its to do with being able to assess the pros and cons and making a decision based on your countrymens best interests.

if trump gets in the trade deal with china will be an interesting one to watch.

I love the way that the Farage bashers accuse him of fooling the public or dishonesty but then run away when asked to explain further.

Farage is purely anti establishment, appearing at rally was not a direct endorsement of Trump, but as there are only two choices......well that's not his fault is it?
By:

Farage is a public schoolboy,who was a stockbroker and then realised he could make more by milking the political system. So yes he's really anti-establishment. Do me a favour.

And WTF is he doing in America?

He 'wanted his life back'. Is this what he meant? Sticking his nose into the American democratic process after castigating Obama (quite rightly) for doing the same in our European Referendum.

He was a public schoolboy.
He was a stockbroker.
He was once a Tory.

That shouldn't disqualify him from being a patriot,shouldn't disqualify him from standing up for the ordinary Brit.

The Labour Party went all international became the preserve of a metropolitan elite who secretly despised the British working class.
Bob Crow was the last person to speak out consistently for them,Nigel Farage is now the only one speaking for the ordinary Brit.

Extraordinarily enough another unlikely working class hero has emerged in America,the wealthy Donald Trump.
Its the American working class that are supporting him,probably why Farage was there.

If you're trying to come off as an authentic voice of anti-Establishment it does.

Obama was invited to the UK and still interfered in our democratic process. Yes he issued threats (and look how that turned out) but there's still a Brexit war to be won over here and I think he'd be serving us all better if he got back and started banging heads to secure that......unless he wants his life back.

roger there is not much Nigel can do either here or in Brussels at the moment as most is in recess, I believe his wife and children have also travelled with him so he will get a bit of a holiday to go with it so he is getting a bit of his life back at the moment.

I agree with Farage, I think Trump can still make president.

Not sure I will be putting any serious money on it though,

but I hope he does
By:

He certainly tried to tell Americans how to vote. For the so-called anti-establishment megalomaniac billionaire Trump.
I was pro-Brexit but not because I was influenced by Farage. If anybody could have persuaded me to vote Remain it was Nige.

I presume that was at me B-B.
Being a public schoolboy does not rule you out of being an anti-establishment figure I agree. George Orwell went to Eton and there are plenty of other examples.
But Orwell didn't make his living first as a stockbroker and then milking,for every penny he could get,a political system he claims to despise. Add the 3 together and I'm afraid I think anybody who considers Nige anti-establishment should seek help.
By:

When: 25 Aug 16 13:29
you are implying he went into politics for the money which is utter crap, if he was money motivated he would have stayed a stockbroker. His father was also a stockbroker so it was a natural progression for him, he was not some Eton educated snob like many political figures, perhaps you would prefer that. He was educated at Dulwich College an independent school, if you think that is some sort of elitist, snobby place then have a word with slippy blue next time he is on, as he was in a couple of classes below Nigel.

You and I obviously have a different idea of what forms the establishment B-B.
I don't know anything about slippy blue.He might be a latter-day Orwell for all I know.
I do know Dulwich College is a public school.
You might be right that Nige could have made even more as a stockbroker than he ( and his German wife ) does as an MEP,but it is less like hard work as he hardly bothers to turn up.

no I have that opinion on anyone who makes things up as they go along, doesn't know what they are talking about and sticks in snide comments to try and score points. I must try it myself, now go and enjoy your Morning Star comrade.
