I have just noticed that he is 5th favourite!
Surely it must be about 10,000-1 (or more) against him becoming a Tory MP, let alone leading the party?
Can anybody see a route by which this could happen? I sure as heck cannot imagine a mechanism by which this could come about.

Nigel needs a seat first-surely he isn't going to the Lords? Lord Farage of Get me out of here

Don't forget Kemi, she has a decent chance.

Don’t like you choices Dotchinite.
But we have seen some made things so who knows. I would favour Bravaman from the extreme nutjob wing of the Tories over a Tory enemy like posh boy Farridge. He is even more marmite than Suella. But it depends if there is someone in the centre right the Tories can unite around. That can’t be Cameron. The Tories are surely aware that Reece Smugg is poisonous electorally. Patel is surely damaged goods with all her ministerial rule breaking and again poisonous electorally. I’d be on Kemi or Mordaunt. They seem to have not been proven sleaze merchants which is something. |

Foin You always mention Kemi .. she’s your favourite
|

By:
Kemi Badenoch is certainly the one whose views most align with my own views, and she would certainly be my choice.

By:
Cot, centre right has got us where we are now, no one will vote for more of the same failures.
|
|
By:
Definitely, lfc. If not her then Suella.
|
|
By:
I don't like Mordaunt, she's one of the wets and would sell us down the river.

It's astounding
Time is fleeting Madness takes its toll But listen closely Not for very much longer I've got to keep control I remember doing the Time Warp Drinking those moments when The blackness would hit me And the void would be calling Let's do the Time Warp again Let's do the Time Warp again It's just a jump to the right And then a step to the right Put your hands on your hips You bring your knees in tight But it's the pelvic thrust That really drives you insane Let's do the Time Warp again Let's do the Time Warp again |

There's a break away tory party called Reform, once Farage, Braverman, Pritti, Boris and Lee Anderson jump ship to them.
They could form a Government, i don't think Farage needs Boris, but he thinks he does. |
|
By:
Reform? The party with zero MPs and unlikely to win any at the ballot box? How can they ever form a government please?
|
|
By:
Take over tory party, then defect
Step one well underway. |

|
By:
You would start to get into a situation where no party had a majority unless all the tories defected en masse to Reform.

We can't carry on with the same 2 parties, this country needs a reset, otherwise we'll all be
Fu cke d. and our kids and Grandkids will be in dire straits. |

By:
But even after the latest brief period of "calm" eg no change of PM, apart from Hunt, Gove and Mordaunt, the experience of Government is very limited. And there is even less in the Labour party. Starmer and Cooper, that is about it. The Civil Servants in the Cabinet office will be licking their lips whoever wins the poisoned chalice next. They can tell the Boris intake of Ministers anything they like and not be contradicted. Raab, Sunak, Hancock, Badenoch, Braverman, Shapps all just out of primary school in parliamentary terms.

Farage tried and failed several times to win a seat when with UKIP, he couldn't get elected anywhere in targeted constituencies, laughable to think he could be an MP now
|
|
By:
It's not laughable at all. It's your knowledge of general elections that's laughable.
If Farage stood for the Tories in a safe in different times he'd be a shoo in. People vote for the party at general elections not the personality. |
|
By:
I doubt Nigel would be breaking his neck to spend 5 years as the LOTO.
|
|
By:
It's a huge pot, he's a patient man.
|
|
By:
Hang on saddo, I'll find you some straws
|
|
By:
Farage's popularity was at it's absolutely peak when UKIP had grown so much it spooked Cameron into giving a referendum, Farage still couldn't get himself elected, several times, even under the Tory Umbrella, he'd still struggle because he's still not seen as mainstream and still seen as that Anti Immigrant guy by the casuals, you have to be close to centre ground to stand a good chance of election and your friend Nigel isn't perceived to be that.
So again, he wouldn't win a seat in any party. |
|
By:
a 'safe seat' lol, Nigel would make it unsafe
 Career wise, he's better off standing on the beaches of Dover pointing out the boats coming in and making youtube videos. |

^look the brains of Britain has arrived
you literally created a forum pseudonym solely to trade off of being daft, obtuse and down right stupid we all know play a character, but every now and then you slip out of being lfc and your real personality comes through, it must be difficult playing different roles and signing in and out of different accounts. Easy to forget who you are. |

Farage advertising a few hundred folk
coming to UK by dinghy turned it into tens of thousands a year. Advertising works. |

By:
You could say exactly the same for Lineaker.
Young Gary wants everyone who rocks up on a Kent beach to be housed and taken are of by UK tax payers. He's not remotely interested if they are genuine refugees fleeing conflict or criminals looking for richer spoils. We must take everyone or he'll get very angry and sign an open letter. |

Can you back that up with some evidence? |
|
By:
Lineker never played for man yoo
Obvious target |
|
By:
I'll happily accept it if he can back it up.
|
|
By:
Can you back that up with some evidence?
Certainly. Lineker has opposed every attempt by the government to deport illegal immigrants and he is completely silent on criminals abusing Uk tax payers. |
|
By:
Think that's a bit of a reach but no interest in pushing it further
|
|
By:
Lineker would be on far firmer ground and more in tune with the public is he castigated the government for not quickly weeding out criminals and other illegal economic migrants and deporting them back to where they came from or Rwanda.
|
|
By:
I think there's once again a whole load of assumptions baked into that.
|
|
By:
It's illegal to send migrants to Rwanda.
Rwanda will abide by rulings from echr, even if uk passes legislation to ignore echr. We can send flight... It won't be allowed to land as it stands Maybe Doctor Death has a solution. |
