Interesting way of spinning it, the speech he made was actually quite decent, I just watched it.
He thanked the guy who insulted him, mentioning he was glad free speech allowed him to do so. Which was quite amusing to watch.
Cause he is? I’m sure his sources of income lead to Russia as well if people digged a little.
>Jamie Raskin, the Democrat ranking member of the House Judiciary Committee launched an blistering attack on the Reform leader during the Washington DC hearing – warning the people of the UK to think twice before they let Farage “Make Britain Great Again.”
MBGA just doesn’t roll off the tongue like MAGA
This was an Ill advised and obviously disastrous trip for Farage. The mind boggles.
it’s a glorious takedown that rightfully rips into Republicans and names Farage for what he is.
It’s really hard to know what to do.
We’re rapidly approaching the stage, already reached in the US, where we have two sides that despise each other to the extent that an attack like this is likely to make him more popular, not less. The logic goes something like this: if someone criticises (insert demagogue here) they are obviously on the other side. If they’re on the other side then they stand for everything I hate, therefore their criticism is actually an endorsement and reinforces my belief in (demagogue).
We’re watching this process rip the US apart. Why is it that we seem to be powerless to avoid following them into the pit?
> “To the people of the UK who think this Putin loving free speech imposter will protect free speech, come over to America and see what Donald Trump is doing in this country,” Mr Raskin said, ahead of Farage’s evidence.
It’s so painfully clear what he’s up to, yet people still think he will give a shit about making their lives better.
He won’t. He’s interested in looking important and making himself rich while doing nothing to improve the UK.
He thrives on discontent and outrage.
Now now. Nigel persuaded the UK population to shock doctrine our own economy for the benefit oligarchy five months before the US elected Trump for the first time.
So technically Donald is the tribute act.
A classic Farage.
Jets off to the USA to address Congress rather than doing his job as an MP in Parliament, to accuse the UK government of suppressing free speech whilst his own party bans newspapers they don’t like, only to have a US representative slam him down in a way British politicians are too scared to do.
It’s a Labour paper hating on Farage. What a suprise.
He’s an idiotic grifter who only looks out for himself. Why is he in the US talking down the UK? To sew discourse and stir up hatred.
