The Labour Thread

It isn’t about what he believes it is about how he comes across.

Good PR wins elections more than anything, Blair and Cameron show how you can be as false as you want if it at least looks and acts caring and professional.

Labour have looked neither for years and have zero chance to get back in until they change at the top for a slimey, two faced, PR, customer service rep at the top.

Boris willcrush labour currently because while he’s a buffoon he can still come across a likeable.....while Farage for all the fake ness can come across as caring.

T’other side has lots to say but none of them seem very likeable

Bollocks to that, I’d rather lose with a genuine leader.

If anyone believes that Farage represents an anti-establishment choice, or an anti-EU one, then they seriously need to look at where the vast majority of his wealth has come from.

Perhaps you could enlighten us. I can't find anything duplicitous or untoward, just media appearences and the lecture circuit, same as anyone else in politics. To suggest that Farage is not an anti-EU choice is probably going to require some extraordinary evidence.

I W would suggest spending 20 odd years as an MEP would constitute not being politically adverse to the EU gravy train, which I suspect you already know.

Now talk to me about his expenses claims whilst he’s been there.

I would suggest that spending those years trying to end our membership of the European Union and thus his own employment, suggests a pretty obvious aversion to the EU gravy train. There's no part of him being an MEP that isn't in line with what would reasonably be expected of someone trying to get Britain out of the EU. If you're going to sit there and claim that Nigel Farage is not anti-EU then I believe that your views and reality have parted ways.

Now talk to me about his expenses claims whilst he’s been there.

Why not just tell us what you believe to be true instead of making vague insinuations. Correct me if I'm wrong, but the expenses scandals involving Farage centred around him improperly using funds for Brexit campaigning instead of actual Brussels MEP work.
