Farage being against something which benefits the majority of people? Well fuck me, someone check water and make sure it’s still wet.

Bit of a strange thing for Nigel to be upset about?

I guess my question is, if Farage were a Russian asset what would he do differently.
Really makes a fella wonder.

Comrade Farage doesn’t want to say the wrong thing and end up falling out of a window.

I guess it’s a good idea if Farage is howling about it
stubob1701 on
Imagine the Kompromat they must have on Farage to keep him in line.

And here I was thinking this self-absorbed, self-descrived patriot would be all in favour of reducing foreign interference in politics, but I guess that should only be excused for the US and Russia

In the interest of fairness, it is purely a coincidence that Farage said the same pro Russia talking points as Nathan Gill (convicted of taking bribes to say pro Russian talking points in the European Parliament).

Farage is wrong here.
The explicit target of the National Centre for Information Defence is hostile foreign states (specifically Russia), rather than domestic citizens exercising free speech.
The stated purpose is to detect and disrupt state-backed cyber-attacks, deepfakes, bot farms, fake news websites, and the illegal forging of British organizational branding (such as universities and the BBC) not stopping normal people expressing opinion.

What’s the opposite of tone deaf. Not in a positive way.
Something so completely on brand, to the degree that it perfectly sums up the accusations against you.
Garage has chosen the exact perfect time to say the exactly correct thing, if he wanted people to believe the worst about him.

And people want yjos clearly “Good Faith” actor to be PM? Maybe there should be an emphasis on rhe word actor.

It seems as if Burnham is talking about the UK government censoring and banning more things. And people will jump up to support it all because the Russians are a nuisance?

Why would you as a patriot have an issue with measures designed to keep foreigners interfering with you country’s sovereignty ?? Very suspicious, very unpatriotic, very Russian spy

The internet knows Farage is a Putin stooge. Why can’t the government arrest him ?
ElectroNetty on
The real question is why we’re allowing a Russian agent to continue as a politician. Why wasn’t this cunt banned from politics when £300m/week lie came out.

He’s right of course, this’ll just be used for censorship.

It’s almost incredulous that my old boy would have had something in common with that Muppet Farage. He told me a story that many years ago when he was heavily involved in the trade unions the regional secretary wanted to send him to Soviet Russia to do a course in public speaking (as they were inclined to do). I couldn’t believe it and still take it with a grain of salt, but yeah there’s no way he’d go out to Soviet era Russia and not come back as some sort of asset.

Why would Farage be so against the idea of Russian money flowing into British politics?
When Obama commented on the Brexit referendum, Farage was apoplectic at foreign interference.
What changed?
We know what changed, obviously….

When Farage was interviewed by what I think was a German magazine, his first response to the question ‘who benefits from Brexit?’ was “Russia!”
He then flustered a bit and insulted the journalist.
