Politicians are like dogs with your dinner. They'll all eat it, but some will wait till your not there and accept that it wasn't right afterwards. Some will do that then pretend they don't know anything about it, and some will do it blatantly and not give a shit when you tell them about themself.

Just like Dick Lice, Farage is also a completely shameless hypocrite
2024: Nigel Farage, "Elon Musk is fully behind us.. He wants to help us.. He is not opposed to give is money"

2018: Nigel Farage, "George Soros has attempted to change the political climate in Britain"

An excellent analysis by Femi Oluwole of last night’s Question Time appearance of Nigel Farage as he lies and obfuscates his way throughout the programme.
Farage falls apart over Brexit on 38th Question Time appearance!
