Farage has raked in over £1.2m from 12 different gigs since becoming Clacton’s MP in July 2024, including circa. £510k as a GBNews presenter and £280k as a brand ambassador to Direct Bullion.
This is living proof that politics is infected with greedy hypocritical charlatans.

(Labour) Gov recovers £74m from asylum hotel firms.
It’s a small amount in the grand scheme of things, but it’s not nothing and should be commended.

Enjoy @raskin.house.gov call Farage a “Putin-loving free speech imposter and Trump sycophant” to his face in the U.S. Congress a few months ago.
He’s not only that, though; he’s a conman, a liar, a charlatan, and a threat to British society and national security.

Then, of course, there’s Farage’s former leader of Reform UK Party Ltd in Wales who pleaded guilty to taking Russian bribes for making pro-Russian statements in the European Parliament.
And there’s a whole lot more besides.

BBC Director General Tim Davie and news CEO Deborah Turness have both quit. Getting rid of a former Tory candidate and the woman who wanted to change output to gain the trust of Reform voters should definitely sort out any left wing bias.

Farage caused Brexit.
Farage caused economic problems for businesses big and small, across Europe.
Brexit itself is the issue.
It’s laughable that he thinks he could somehow negotiate a better deal. The EU would slam the door in his face.

The Tories voted against creating it 22 times, hence why after 14 years under them, it’s on its knees.

Trump probably has Alzheimer's or Dementia — all the signs are there, literally and figuratively; hand bruising, MRI scans, and labelling the White House, not to mention forgetting things and talking nonsense, though he’s done that for years.
