Farage says Brexit party will not fight Tories in 317 seats, in significant boost to Johnson's election chances
Farage says he weighed up Johnson’s promises against the threat that the Brexit party standing could let the Lib Dems in.
Farage says the Brexit party will not stand against the Tories in the 317 seats they won in 2017.
But it will concentrate its efforts on seats held by the Labour party.
And it will also challenge other remainer parties.

Great news....Labour and the unlibdems gonna be smashed up
Again Farage shows the kind of stuff that all politicians should be made of.
Also should not be contesting any seat Labour beat the cons at the last election by less than a thousand seats, must be a few of those as well.
^^why? The brexit party isn't taking any votes from her.
pumphol is more or less correct.

Seven seats Labour beat the Cons into second place last time by less than 240 votes, key seats Brexit should not be contesting if they have gone this far with withdrawing.
actually the tories should win all labour held seats with less than a 2000 majority, about 20 seats. Whether the brexit party will take labour or tory votes or equal amounts is debateable but the info from recent polls suggest that they take more labour votes. If brexit wanted the maximum disruptive effect they would only stand in seats where labour had a more than 2000 majority.
That would be the common sense approach but when did that ever enter the recent political scene.
You just can't trust what Boris says, "No deal with Farage" - really ? ?
Leftys on run, I can feel a song coming on. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pK0DbgovWZo
Sensible move from Farage. Sometimes you have to know when to retreat and fight another day.
I wanted the Brexit Party and Conservatives to negotiate a deal, but it looks like Boris has gambled on this one and it’s paid off.
Loony lefties and remoaners absolutely SEETHING so that’s always fun to see.

With a bit of luck a step towards the breaking up of Scotland and NI away from the union, a good thing,belt away Boris,sound Nige.
The Left : "Vote tactically to stop Johnson becoming PM and ensure we continue to have a Remainer Parliament, which will prevent the Brexit the country voted for"
ALSO The Left : "How DARE the Brexit Party NOT stand in Tory constituencies. That sort of tactical move to try and facilitate the Brexit that the Fascist Nazi Racist Islamophobic Homophobic Transphobic Pretendy Refugee hating public voted for is a disgrace".

I don't see the point of voting for Labour, SNP & Liberals the No Deal parties. Europe has had several chances to enforce no deal on us and each time they have cowered away and given an extension. Just proves that Conservatives and Farage were right that it should be used as a lever to get a better deal.
rofl - why would they enforce no deal after the UK has asked for an extension (damaging both economies)?
this has basically handed a massive majority to the tories 
The other seats they are contesting will only split the labour vote not the tory vote that the media want you to think
I think this could be a landslide for the tories now

Its over now and this has just confirmed it, a big laugh in the face of everyone from Farage and the banking cartel
"tactical voting" now out the window but that made no difference anyway because it was only splitting the labour vote and handing the tories the seat anyway, shows how stupid people are doesn't it
But you might as well not bother voting unless its for tory now anyway, its over and done with.
And the beauty is that Liberals can't gift their seats to SNP in retaliation because the next Prime Minister has one of those seats
Still 1.62 for a majority ffs
If they don't get the majority from here it'll be a miracle
I got £300 on Saturday at 1.94, really wanted to get another £500 on but didn't have the funds to do it at the time
Horrible that is happening and would have liked another good chunk on at decent odds

Wrong
By contesting them they are taking labour voters who want brexit, gifting the seat to the tories , the staunch tory voter will not jump sides trust me, but labour voters who are voting entirely from a brexit point of view will switch. Labour are going to lose those seats as well. Its madness what's going on here but heyho its not my life being shafted so fack it. I feel sorry for the poor fackers who are about to get shafted by their fellow neighbour ffs.
If this is going the way I think this is going to be an easy Tory win by probably 400 seats +

They have every right to be seething from a its all over angle
This has just handed them a hiding and they know it
Boris facking Johnson winning a clean majority
Unbelievable ffs
Post from Facts
Nah, the snake oil remains solely his and his alone
Mention Nigel Farage and without fail Facts will pop up with his usual platitude of him being a "snake oil" salesman.He must have heard the insult (probably from Soubry or Phillips) and now just can't seem to stop himself.Not an original thought in his pickled marshmallow head.

This could be a game changer.
Had a Brexit Party candidate stood in my constituency the Liberals would have won the seat for sure.

They still might I should hasten to add. The seat has flipped-flopped between Tories and Liberals in recent times.
I'm still far from certain this decision by Farage will actually help Johnson/Tories that much in those constituencies in the Midlands/North/Wales NOT presently held by the Tories.
The pro-Brexit vote will still get split there, and anyone underestimating Labour in those regions should take note of recent history. Labour can still rely on the very effective Sharia Law Block Vote (particularly by post) and the easily-impressed students who voted Labour in dual locations as in 2017.
Remember Peterborough? Anyone who saw those scenes after the recent by-election result might have thought they were watching coverage from an election in Islamabad Central.
The thing that worries Corbyn's Labour more than anything is for much tighter (and long-overdue) controls on Voter ID, particularly by post. In the 2017 General Election (for example), a staggering 8.4 million votes were cast by post, or 18% of those who voted in the election. The idea that almost 1 in 5 can't make it to a Polling Station for a legitimate reason on Election Day is ludicrous.

Mr Farage told the Daily Mirror he wanted 'nothing' from the Government 'and I have asked for nothing'.
Pressed on an offer of a peerage in return for not standing against the Conservatives he added: 'I was offered one last Friday.
'Ridiculous – the thought they can buy me, a high-paid job; but I'm not interested, I don't want to know.'
Mr Farage insisted that he had been swayed by the premier's pledge in a video message last night that the transition period will not be extended beyond the end of 2020, and the government would strike a 'Super Canada Plus' trade deal.
'That sounds a bit more like the Brexit we voted for,' Mr Farage said. 'Last night I weighed up Boris's promises and is he going to stick to them, against the threat, particularly in the south and south west, that we let in a load of Lib Dem Remainers.

Dear Brexiteer,
Today in Hartlepool, I made clear The Brexit Party’s strategy for the General Election. I always said that I would put country before party – and I meant it.
We want to stop the Remainers winning enough seats to introduce a second referendum, offering us a false choice between Remain and Remain. That’s why we are not going to contest the 317 seats that the Conservatives won in 2017. For months, I have argued for a Leave alliance. Now we have launched it unilaterally. This will ensure that there will not be a second referendum and that Brexit can finally be delivered.
We will though contest every seat held by Corbyn’s Remainer Labour Party, which has openly betrayed five million Labour Leave voters. And we will stand in all seats held by the other Remainer parties.
Let me explain how we came to this difficult decision. When Boris Johnson came back with his new EU Treaty, I made no secret of my concerns. Two aspects in particular stood out. First, it did not ‘get Brexit done’ – it would mean at least another three years of agonising negotiations in which EU negotiator Monsieur Barnier would have the upper hand. And second, the Treaty meant we were committing ourselves to regulatory and political alignment with EU rules on everything from our fishing to our financial services.
That’s why last week we signed 600 Brexit Party candidate nomination forms, because I felt that in a democracy everybody deserves a genuine choice.
Last night, however, I heard something from Boris Johnson that at last made me feel more optimistic. In a video the Prime Minister said that he would not extend the Transition Period beyond the end of 2020 – a huge challenge to Barnier and Juncker.
Even more importantly, Boris said that he would seek a ‘super Canada-plus’ free trade deal with the EU, with no political alignment. That is a significant step in the right direction. It starts to look more like the Brexit that 17.4m of us voted for.
So, we have decided to give Boris half a chance, and focus on taking the fight to Labour in their Brexit heartlands. It was The Brexit Party that beat Labour here in the May European elections – and we can, with your help, do it again. There are millions of traditional Labour voters waiting for a party that is on their side, that believes in bringing more money and jobs back to the regions, that says we need sensible immigration controls. These are messages that will resonate hard in those Labour Leave areas.
How do we hold Boris to his promises? We have to start winning some of those Labour seats, by making Corbyn’s Labour pay for their betrayal of Brexit. Getting MPs into Parliament is the way we can hold Mr Johnson to account. We cannot win those seats without your help.
I have no great love for the Conservative Party. But I see stopping the Remainers and their **** second referendum as the biggest issue facing our country. Our actions today have stopped the Remain alliance in is tracks.
The question of trust is key. There can be no real Brexit without The Brexit Party in Parliament to keep Boris honest. And we cannot get there without your help.
Thanks for your support. Together we can beat the Remainer alliance and change politics for good.

What a fairy merchant farage is only the other week he was saying Bullingdons deal was a shambles and worse than chairman mays , now he comes out with this crap
And he (Nige) said he had been reassured by “a very clear change of direction” signalled by Mr Johnson in a video posted on social media on Sunday evening, in which the PM promised to negotiate a “super Canada-plus” free trade agreement with the EU and rule out any extension of talks on future relations beyond the end of 2020.

People are dumb and will go along with it because they are voting 'the winning team'
Let them have the coming rogering, i feel sorry for the genuine people out there, the one's who are going to suffer
But I cant feel sorry for cognitive dissonance sorry, if they are willing to overlook the obvious then so be it
"cognitive dissonance " thats no way to talk about Jezza supporters.

We are doing our best to stop the Tories from winning this majority
If we can keep them down to 290 seats and Labour get 270 its been a successful (s)election
