i put farage as figurehead too
he drove it for years, even if somebody else nudged it over the line, and though he was funded by others it was his efforts , image, and words that brought it into the public eye, and into camerons manefesto, |

NF fought his fight to bring the obscenities of the EU into the public domain whilst having to stave off the scurrilous claims from the majority of the media of being a racist.
Very few politicians in history have been able to stand up to the pressure he was under without wilting or softening their stance. Nigel stood firm. |

Seriously flawed judgement where chump is concerned.... Sold his soul for a few bucks He openly criticised Trump on some of the stuff he had said. Struggling to understand the second part on selling his soul. In what way and who paid the bucks? |

You have been conditioned by the liberal media scandy.
Listen to and read all media outlets including the right wing press and come to a conclusion, but could just as easily say you have been conditioned by the right leaning press. Farage may have drove it for years, but if he was the face and voice of the official leave campaign they would have lost, he is too much of a divisor. His rabble rousing can only appeal to a certain amount of people. Mainstream politicians like Boris in the end was more important. |

By:
Disagree s_h.
Farage was the voice of Brexit. His campaign aided by parts of the press, had already changed people's perceptions of the EU long before the referendum. The official leave campaign was a very feeble affair in comparison to the torrent of negativity coming from the remain side should we decide to leave. The terminal damage to the image of our membership in the EU, had already been done by Farage an co before the campaign had started. Which is why so many of the the seeds of project fear fell mainly on stony ground. |

Just watched it. Not your usual Morgan style confess and blubber fest. He was very evasive about his marital and family life which leads you to suspect that all is not well there, but I can't blame him for putting up a wall in the face of Morgan's pseudo-sleazy line of questioning. Seems to me like he's sacrificed a lot to rescue his country. He might not be everyones cup of tea, but the man is brave, you have to give him that.

Without Nigel Farage Britain would not have been granted an IN or OUT referendum, it is that simple. His perseverance over the last twenty-odd years, usually in the face of constant abuse from mainstream media and every other political party, has been quite extraordinary. Such dogged stamina counts for little on its own, of course, but Farage backed it up with exemplary debating skills, something which his adversaries were never able to match.
I believe this country owes Nigel Farage a great debt. |

By:
I'm still baffled by why no press wants to report about the EU and the money paid to employees and the contracts they have to sign for silence. Why dont the press report about the auditing of the EU finances ?
Its all rather strange, how could anyone be a journalist and only report one side. |
|
By:
Farage the best orator of his time.
The bravest politician of his time. A man who sacrificed much for his principles. I always liked him,to me a quintessential English gent with a touch of the common man. Having watched the programme I like him even more. His huge interest in the Great War is shared by me and explains his patriotism. When I'm in England I stop at all those magnificent War Memorials and read the names,I admire their sacrifice,I admire the sacrifice of their families and get the feeling that's who Nigel Farage has been fighting for for over thirty years. |

Farage forced the referendum; a combination of dreadful and misguided campaigning from Will Straw's rabble, along with Cameron's team, combined with Cummings' handling of the Leave campaign were probably far more instrumental than anything UKIP and Banks did who were largely preaching to the converted. Focus group work showed that the vacillating middle ground abhorred Farage and he needed to be kept as far away from the debates as possible to win their support.
He speaks very well, and I imagine that's why Trump invited him to dinner last night at short notice after he killed it at the CPAC. The public speaking in his camp is woeful, and he's particularly bad; his hyperbole is wearing very thin, and only the morons can probably continue to stomach it. Farage's narrative based speeches resonate well, and no doubt meet with a huge stamp of approval from Bannon. |
