Farage says UK needs better post-Brexit deal with EU – but fails to explain what he would do in tetchy interview

Farage is too used to standing outside throwing shit in. Now he’s an MP and supposed to be angling to be PM (however unlikely) he has to make positive policy statements and he just can’t.

Firstly they want to leave the ECHR. This is written into the GFA and the current TCA.

Try negotiating a new deal while breaking current international agreements, including with the trade block you want to renegotiate with?!

TBH he should have just made shit up. Let’s look at a certain PM. Everything he stood for and voted for has been thrown out and he is a total 180 on what he told people.

I am not defending Farage at all. But at least he is not a closet twat like Starmer. He wears his twattyness for all to see.

In this country they are all as bad as one another. if this new Gov has not shown you that nothing will

Er…we had a good deal. We had freedom of movement, frictionless trade, trade deals with the rest of the world, Erasmus, scientific and research co-operation, we didn’t need to adopt the euro, we had the rebate…but no….we voted to rip all that up with NO credible vision or plan of what to do next.

What a fuck up. What a fucking waste. And we ALL have to pay for the stupidity of the Brexit voters. I hope they fucking freeze.

He doesn’t have to give details. Like Trump he can just say “we need this, this is bad” and doesn’t give a solution.

And apparently his party is doing well in the polls… wtf why

So he’s just running his mouth like he always does.

Man who made career throwing peanuts from the gallery continues to throw said peanuts.

Remember he is styling himself as the next opposition party, yet cannot formulate any material policy on his major talking points.

At this point anyone voting for this chancer is doing so knowing full well he is full of shite

The public need to be harsher towards populist charlatans who can tell you everything is wrong, but not one single thing they would do differently.

This is politics as a gullibility test.

He is like Trump, gets really arsey when challenged. So used to sniping from the sidelines.

I spent two whole years arguing the toss with folks who said: ‘It’ll be fine, we’ll just get a better deal with Europe’ pre-referendum. Then for several years post-referendum where they still believed it would all be grand because Boris!

I can’t believe we’re practically 8,5 years later (NEARLY A FUCKING DECADE!) and people STILL believe that it’s as easy as telling the EU we want a better deal.

You know what else I predicted: getting rid of EU migrants will lead to more non-European migrants because the UK has such a workforce demand that needs to be filled. (No! We will get below 100K In immigration, you don’t know what you’re talking about!) Uhuh.

I’ve stopped caring. You get the shit you vote for folks, remember that when you see Farage parading out the next grand plan.

40 years before Brexit to come up with an idea of what a post-EU Britain would be like. Any ideas that came up were based in no way in reality or had ludicrous assumptions.

8 years since Brexit to come up with an idea that would not completely and utterly shaft the British economy when the impacts of Brexit became clear.

There are reasons why he doesn’t like getting asked about details.

A simple Free trial deal with no strings attached, so no regulatory alignment, not paying billions of pounds for a free trade deal which isn’t technically free anyway.

Don’t you see, his plan is to do it better! He won’t elaborate how, but it would be better, trust.

I remember getting the leaflets through the door during the election. Saying “vote reform’. 3 out of the 4 points they had were about immigration without actually saying how do to something about it.

Nigel Farage is so fucking clueless about everything. Reform party as a whole runs on 1 idea. They offer no solution to anything else and even the 1 thing they don’t shut up about, they still don’t know.

America has gone to shit and you wonder how on earth can there be that many stupid people to vote for this guy. Then you look back at home and we are meant to be somewhat educated and still vote for people like this.

I’m embarrassed at the brexit vote, I’m embarrassed that people in this country are that gullible and we are driven by our hatred for others ( and ourselves) just like America.

Like clockwork as soon as they appear to be equal/ahead of their direct competition they soothe some of the language to garner those on the fence. Classic.

Can’t imagine the Tories will last very long with all the potential youth that used to refill their ranks being soaked up by Reform and their dwindling resource of OAPs.
