Nigel Farage refuses to stand at election - James O'Brien reacts | LBC 

@roy Then don't read the daily mail.

@@chatham43 Know thy enemy.

@@bakedbean37 Keep your friends close and your enemies closer.

Farage was huge fan boy of Oswald Mosley , man who made a deal with Adolf to be leader of Britain for him .

SHOWS HOW LITTLE YOU KNOW ABOUT DIVORCE .

He has no character

@david Not really. You obviously have had a busy day.😊

OP thinks everyone who suffers a family breakdown is of poor character....I think this says more about OP than those people

Yep, very true. They've been outed now, but unfortunately the lie is already half way around the world before the truth had got it's shoes on. They know you can't un-ring a bell, by the time a lie is called out as a lie the world has moved on to the next set of lies. The Truth is always playing catch up to their lies.

True… “ fool me once….”

Not this time. I definitely won't be voting Labour or conservative.

So you're a Tory. Got it. ​@@jake751

The word that sums up the UK(well, English) electorate is Laodicean. ie. unthinking. I thought that ASB was 'another silly book', the new prayerbook that drove me away from my 1662 CofE masses. ah well, I suppose it is a bank or anti-social behaviour...could be anything.

​@@jake751🫠

I'd put it another way - it's a majority of the English electorate who are to blame. As a nation, Scotland voted 62% to remain in the EU and we haven't voted for a Tory government at Westminster since 1955. Despite this we have been dragged out of the EU against our will and of the 16 GEs since 1959 England got the govt it voted for 16 times (100%) but Scotland got the govt it voted for only 6 times (37%). This is what Scots mean by democratic deficit. Is it any wonder that around 50% of us want to dissolve this "Voluntary" UK union?

James being 1 of them who voted for boris johnson.

Just politics?

I think JB will hang on for ages .

Me too. Also starmer

You don't like democracy huh?

​@nihilistlivesmatter What democracy? The FPTP voting system which gave the tories dictatorial powers with 43% of the vote. Or the brexit referendum campagin financed with black money of dubious pedigree and the offer of sunlit uplands that could never be. That's not democracy.

@@nihilistlivesmatter say wot you dont even have a clue what democracy is.

Who started the decline of the UK? Thatcher and US Neoliberal economics of, Milton Friedman/Greenspan etc known as, Reaganomics (trickledown neoliberal economics). Since then it has been a downhill slide for the hoi polloi public and a sharp upward curve for the banksters and wealthy shareholders etc. Thatcher deregulated the financial services & banks etc, with her, "Big Bang" of 1986. This allowed big bonuses for bankers and shareholders etc. The Big Bang was the result of an agreement made in 1983 by Thatcher and the London Stock Exchange.

Follow the money... First Farage was funded by Arron Banks. Banks is a private insurance company owning £billionaire. So it is no surprise that Farage was pushing for an, "American type insurance based health system" to replace the NHS & Nat Insurance model. (Tories also want this now and are gaslighting the public into thinking getting rid of Nat Ins is a benefit to the country) PS, J O'B asked, "Who started the decline of the UK?" For me it has to be, Thatcher and the US Neoliberal economics of, Milton Friedman/Greenspan etc, known as, ''Reaganomics'' (trickledown neoliberal economics). Since then it has been a downhill slide for the poorest and working classes of the hoi polloi public and a sharp upward curve for the banksters, owners and wealthy shareholders etc etc. Thatcher deregulated the financial services & banks etc, with her, "Big Bang" of 1986. This allowed big bonuses for bankers and shareholders etc. The Big Bang was the result of an agreement made in 1983 by Thatcher & Co and the London Stock Exchange. And so to speak, "the rest is history"

No...he gave the electorate access to a democratic vote...you believe in democracy right?

@@nihilistlivesmatter Brexit definitely harmed my faith in it

@@tomherbert2361 Your faith in it going your way?

@@nihilistlivesmatter which he had no business doing when he knew the possible damage that could be caused , unfortunately he underestimated the stupidity of the average voter

That would be the easy and coward way out for him. He MUST stay and suffer the consequences, like everyone else.

I thought Brexit was a success?

Yep...yet he said himself Brexit has failed. He's a bullshitter of the highest order.

Like all sociopaths, he continually rewrites History.

@stephan And psychopaths comment on it.

Both of them, in fact.

But he's got Homer Simpson's face

We have a counterpart here in the US for Hypocrisy named Lindsey Graham 🙄

Follow the money... First he was Bankrolled by Arron Banks, probably still is (and others). Banks is a private insurance company owning £billionaire.

Yeeeah forgot about the bogeyman!

Don't forget Corbyn!

You named my top two..... and in the correct order👍

If you're looking for foreign influences behind Brexit then it might be worth noting where the prime instigator is shortly heading off to.

No he’s just a grifter. He can make more money not standing. He also doesn’t like losing and knows he will.

T will employ anyone who ##### his #### & pays his legal bills

Trump loves to employ flatterers, so you can't completely count out Farage. That said, Farage will have to aim a couple feet higher than boots to apply his tongue - and these days Trump is apparently wearing diapers. But I have every confidence that Farage will leave the relevant area of Trump's anatomy spotless if that's what's required.

That is exactly who trump would employ. Fits Trump to a T.

@there And there's you bravely hiding behind an anonymous post. Couldn't make it up.😊

So far the most reasonable comment.

David Cameron = Pontius Pilate. At least Pilate disappeared from the political record.

The anti democracy autoritarians are out in force today

@trent And people call you a sore loser. Just don't get it!

It was a non-binding referendum, wasn't it? And given a (fairly standard) margin of error (+/- 3%), surely the result wasn't large enough for either camp to claim victory. Ergo status quo should have been the order of the day, at least until a clearer result was obtained - the same could be said for the Scottish independence referendum.

To be fair we were all lied to by Johnson, Cameron should've negotiated harder with the EU for a better deal. People were really fed up at this point and unfortunately voted for Brexit. If people knew that it meant coming out of trading to and from Europe and all the trouble it's caused, they wouldn't of voted for it 😊

I still pass little villages and industrial fencing where I recall seeing that little flag 'vote leave'.

@sel There'll be some knocking on doors when Labour get in!

​@@caroleball7715To be fair, you were told and chose to listen to liars and conmen

Will you be voting Labour come the election then?

​@@GaryV-p3hthat would actually make a triangle but the point is relatively sound.

Only with Sid James, Charles Hawtrey, Barbara Windsor, Kenneth Williams, Joan Sims, Bernard Breslaw et al.

We will carry on regardless.

Nah, Corbyn was unelectable, the UK will never have a far left pm for so many reasons, you should know that.

Absolutely spot on

The UK will never have a hard left pm, very naive to think Corbyn would get anywhere near No10. "The establishment".. c'mon.

He took all his wages and expenses but hardly ever turned up. Had the worst attendance record of any MEP. He was also caught on camera saying that "you can game this MEP lark for €250kpa"
