Whenever Farage talks about the NHS, he always suggests it needs replacing with an American system, never a European one. That's because he wants to earn money for himself out of our misfortune.

The UK isn’t a “soft touch” on asylum.
UK asylum seeker benefits are similar to European neighbours
No right to work before 12 months (it’s 6 months in France, Spain, Belgium, Netherlands)
UK settlement after 5 years (it’s 3 or 4 in Germany)
Let’s cut out the alarmist rhetoric.

But is he also calling for those Iranian negotiators to be safe from Israeli assassinations?

Britain has no idea - in terms of its self-image, not economists obviously - what economy it actually has
One of my favourite facts to point out is: at over £8bn annually, the *videogames industry* is more than twice as valuable to the UK economy as fishing and steel combined.

Men are extremely keen to explain to me that Britain *needs* a domestic steel production plant and doesn't necessarily *need* universities. Okay. Steel contributed about £1.7bn to the UK economy in 2024. Universities contributed more than £200bn.
