The Fagash Fuhrer is trying to distance himself from allegations he was a racist anti-semite & neo-fascist in his youthful years, despite evidence from 20 witnesses. But you can also learn a lot about him from the kind of people he has been very happy to associate with more recently.

Still no answers from the Fagash Fuhrer about the Clacton property. The British media seem completely uninterested in the matter. Why do UK journalists give him such a soft ride?
The Fagash Fuhrer has still not answered very serious questions about his 'purchase' of a house in Clacton, and the British media seem depressingly reluctant to tackle him on this pressing issue. Why do the British press give him such a soft ride?
A day after his policy announcement/rally, the Fagash Fuhrer said he is 'the antidote to the Far Right', a line has trotted out before. It is very disingenuous, especially as he has tried to fan civil disorder on the UK's streets & praised so-called 'peaceful' protests outside Asylum hostels.

The UK's Guardian newspaper has spoken to 20 people who knew Farage at school and what has clearly emerged is that he was a racist and anti-semite, which adds to the damning evidence dug out in Michael Crick's biography.
Nigel Farage, known as the Fagash Fuhrer in the UK, held a policy announcement session on Aug 26 and it was more like a rally. It is very clear that he is determined to force his mini-me Trumpian version of neo-fascism into the mainstream of British politics. Dangerous and highly irresponsible.

Con MP Robert Jenrick, with his racist comments about 'not seeing another white face' in a part of Birmingham, appears to be playing the 'Enoch Powell' card in order to boost his credentials with the hard right of the Con party & position himself as the next Tory leader.

There’s another timeline where the Guardian supported me, doubled down on the investigation & I look 5 years younger ..

Farage is an Ignorant, racist, dolt.
Nigel farage wants you to think that Britain has an immigration problem.

It doesn't.

Britain had a problem with millionaires hoarding wealth, egged on by politicians and the press.

Britain has a problem with racism.

Britain has a Nigel farage problem.
