      Don’t you love it when our defence secretary takes the opportunity of America and Russia having peace negotiations over the Ukrainian war to talk about Reform?.

      Edit. The sheer compulsion to defend a man doing a terrible job, is truly a UK Reddit moment.

      He’s not wrong. Farage does love Putin and Trump, which doesn’t say much for his character.

      Russia was all over the LeaveEU campaign and Nigel was frequently on Russia Today promoting pro-Kremlin talking points.
      I’m sure it was all above board.

      Zelensky is like Viserys the beggar king, he can only fight this war with help from other nations. In order to keep his people safe and minimise loss of life he should make a deal and lose a bit of land. Peace and loss of land is better than war and death.

      Well he and reform and brexit are all funded by russia so of course he is. I find it hilarious reform supporters claim to be patriots yet are happy to bend over and take it up the ass from russia . How is that patriotic?

      I mean America knew what Trump was before the droves of dribbling idiots voted him in again. I have little faith in our dribbling idiots to be any better.

      That’s the side of politics that he is on. Why is this even a headline. It goes without saying.

      our arms industry is vital to our economy

      we don’t need peace or positive relations with russia, they must be punished for eternity and we need to be constantly at a state of fear and war. anyone that seeks de-escalation is a threat and must continue to be smeared as a putin apologist.

      all of the russian funding stories from the likes of the guardian aren’t biased in any way, the underlying sources are extremely solid and have never been debunked.

      we need to silence *anyone* that steps out of line, period.

      You get a really good perspective on the emotional maturity of the average reddit user here:

      “Farage would take it up the bum” from Trump/Putin and other derivatives of Farage is gay for Putin…
      Devastating stuff, lads.

      I don’t like Farage, but have you lot considered not sounding like a 10-year old when discussing a politician? It might lead more credence to what you say.

      I don’t get this schmoozing with a war criminal such as Putin. What is in it for our Nige? Do politicians just not have any dignity and self-respect? How do they live the rest of their lives knowing they’re a stooge for a propped up outcast nation?
