Farage and Reform are quislings - shilling for Russia, but their voters are too thick to realise it.
Or for Brexit?
Farage was its biggest British champion. Putin - its Russian one.
Yakovenko, (Russian ambassador to the UK) boasted after the Brexit vote: “We have crushed the British to the ground. They are on their knees, and they will not rise for a very long time"

This focuses on politics. But we should also care about *outcomes*.
In the UK, migrants (both from EU and elsewhere) are more likely to have a job than the UK born. In Denmark, there's a gap of 15-20%. Similarly for education outcomes.
Why would we want to copy that?
