Personally I think his a one trick pony that has too much time on TV. Actually politicians have too much time on TV for one reason or another.
😆 at thread title possibilities
****
He's a grade-A ****.
I think he's a racist ****
Not a bad politician at all, a bit like wee Eck.
Both ****s.
I would
I think the way he , the millionaire ex broker who left Thatchers tory party as it was not right wing enough , manages to present himself as a man of the people is a master-stroke of marketing.//its either that or the general population are idiots.
He is a single issue right wing loon who values smoking anywhere above nonsense like Global warming.
He is a self important little englander who should not be allowed to pontificate on a parish council never mind let anywhere near actual power.
One of my least favourite personality types, terrified of the responsibility of having to have policies on every topic, but I'm pleased to have somebody like him stirring it just to stop idiots saying "they're all the bloody same".
Dangerous and dodgy. Like the rest of them really.
Especially the way he plays the game and media. Does anyone know what he exactly stands for and wants to change? Not that I think having any sort of policies to aim for is necessary in the UK politics of the day.
I want to punch him in the face!
Seems like a nice bloke with some good ideas.
Opportunist chancer.
Seems like a nice bloke with some food ideas.

An opportunist freeloader and those are his good qualities 🙂
A devious boorish xenophobe.
Reams like an icy stroke with some rude ideas.
I don't if I can help it.
With the three parties converging on the centre ground he's hitting the Tory vote. This can only be a good thing, so long as he doesn't get many MPs voted in. It's a sad reflection on UK politics that so many voters are looking for an effective protest vote. Dave has to take a large share of the blame for this.
Now if only there were a Labour equivalent, a grassroots working man's Labour Party.
Curse you matt, I can't his effing face 👿
a grassroots working man's Labour Party.
I like the 'Blue Labour' thing, hopefully it'll get some traction.
Farage is a dangerous lunatic.
Not much.
"they're all the bloody same".
He is one of them - I missed that in his marketing ability/electoral stupidity.
With the three parties converging on the centre ground he's hitting the Tory vote.
With three parties converging on the right, he's hitting the further right.
He sent me a letter telling me that we thought the same way about things. This means he has super powers as we have never met or communicated in anyway. This alone worries me let alone the policies he has or hasn't worked out.
He's like watching a contemporary 'Hitler the early years' movie...
And they are all the same, he's just more the same than the rest..
I think he's a ****...
He's a weapons grade cockwomble.
He's really popular in Scotland - would you mind sending him back because I don't think we'd quite finished telling him how much we appreciate him.
He's a politician. What's to like?
He does a bit of sea fishing like me. What's not to like.
But I think he must be a Nobber cos of the politician thing.
I think he is secretly a really smart bloke, but working under deep cover under the pay of labour and conservatives, his mission being to present such a completely ludicrous political 'alternative' that the main parties are mistaken for serious and sensible voting options.
All politicians are horrible self serving hypocrites Farage is no different to them really.
All politicians are lying cheating scumbags, at least he is entertaining.
Do I want him to have any form of power? NO!
My views are neither positive nor (mostly) repeatable here.
Had to laugh when I heard that their new 'slogan' is 'Love Britain? Vote UKIP' was also used by the BNP.
Xenophobic morons who give Britain a [s]bad[/s] worse name.
I'm ashamed to be associated with the same country as Nigel Farrage, UKIP et al.
A grandstanding pillock of the first order. The fact that Millipede and call me Dave have contrived to give him a base of one-issue support is testament to both those parties refusal to face up to the European question.

Niggly Farrago
He's a tosser, he'd be quite fun if there weren't so many people keen to follow him.
I loved the last big Scottish poll- UKIP "surged" to 7%, by taking 2% of the 2.5% decrease in the Tory vote. This was declared to be a lurch to the right, mystifyingly. Meanwhile the SNP stretched out their majority, and Labour also gained. But Farage, knowing ****-all about anything, declared this to be a great success that showed "dissatisfaction with the 2 main parties".
Hes obviously quite smart he's managed to create the terrifying reality of BNP policies with the monster raving loony partys candidates all wrapped up in a package everyone over 50 seems to love
Charismatic ****
Swear filter working overtime tonight!
Tricky one, this. I loathe his policies, yet if I had to pick a politician to have a pint and a fag with .........

This.
I've got one vote to 'spend' in the next election and I can't decide whether to cast it for New Labour Labour, New Labour Conservitives, or New Labour Liberals?
This is why Farage is gaining ground, you couldn't get a fag paper between the three main parties and their career politicians. People are looking for an alternative that actually speaks for them, not at them.
God help us!
He is a Fud.
He's tapped into the island mentality. On the face of it, it all sounds like a good thing: putting the bureaucracy of Europe on a warning. Its just when you actually look at them it starts to look unworkable.
Some of the people he's got as a party officials have shown themselves to be quite uninformed.
On the face of it, it all sounds like a good thing: putting the bureaucracy of Europe on a warning.
Until you realise most of this "bureaucracy of Europe" stuff is a lie spread by the Mail and the Telegraph. Then even that little bit of supposed sense disappears, and you realise just how much of a racist **** Farage is.
compared to Blair or Cameron he seems like someone I could have a beer with and get on with.
Dont like his politics mind but my 70 yr old Mum does and so do most of her friends
Confucious he say "Politician with one policy like dog with one leg".
He's the face of the Tory party about 50 years ago.
My Dad would've loved him.

He's very bright - he's tapped into the nastier side of the British/English national character but he's done it in a way which comes across as reasonable rather than the reality of his beliefs which is pure xenophobia.
But fundamentally he's just a populist chancer taking advantage of our current difficulties to get popular even though he's no serious intention to run the country - he'll fade away when people realise he's all mouth and no trouser. I think he's just infantile - enjoying getting a reaction from the liberal and tolerant faction.
The only reason to worry about him IMO is he'll tear the Tory vote apart which means we're more likely to get another hung Parliament and coalition rather than a strong government next term.
A likeable turd...
Oh, and Brooess, the last thing this country needs is another 'strong' government.
He was a guest speaker at a dinner I attended and he speaks pretty well and whilst I wouldn't want him to move any further to gaining power I think his party raises some good challenges to our relationship to the European gravy train which should/ need to be addressed by the 'proper' parties - for the record he certainly wasn't banging on about immigration etc it was more about what we put into the EU compared with what we got out- although it was aimed at a target market of businessmen so he obviously saw this as something that would resonate
He also was selling ukip tea towels which I thought was 'different'
He's the face of the Tory party about 50 years ago.
😕 50 years ago the Tory Party was a social-democratic party which, built affordable council houses on a massive scale, believed in a mixed economy in which all the utilities, and other sectors such as public transport, were in public hands, had an indisputable commitment to a universal welfare state, and actively recruited foreign labour to work in the UK.
Indeed by today's standard as they would be dismissed as 'left-wing extremists' by everyone from the Daily Mail to Tony Blair.
In contrast UKIP stand in complete position to all those values and believe that, despite this present government being more right-wing than even Thatcher, it still isn't right-wing enough and this justifies them forming a separate party.
How can anyone misread those glaring facts so easily ?
Perhaps this lack of understanding helps to explain why politics in Britain is in such dire straights and there appears to be not a glimmer of light at the end of the very long dark tunnel that we are very clearly in 🙁
Agree with Ernie there. History of politics an all that.
I don't like him...or his views and aims.
Farage is Marxist scum.
Correction. He's not a Marxist, that was Millepede's dad.
So, it could be worse, Farage could me Marxist scum.
I missed you Ernie, welcome back 😆
With three parties converging on the right, he's hitting the further right.
+1
Sadly he's making the Tories even more extreme by appealing to all the closet racists / 'string em ups' in the Tory ranks...

He's actually TJ?
I disparage Farage.
I'd imagine that's not new but I haven't seen much coverage from Australia, and surely it can't go unsaid on this thread.
Also, is that the UKIP logo with a £ sign? It looks straight off a Pound shop.
I would post my real opinion, but don't want to get banned.
Half of me wishes that he'd died in the plane crash.
The reasonable half.....
If I were forced to chose between Farage and that odd looking guy with the Lithuanian Marxist dad, I wouldn't even have to think about it!
Fortunately, I won't have to make that decision 🙂
I, for one, salute his plain speaking, right thinking, and pint drinking. I salute his true grit it sticking up two fingers to Brussels and giving Strasbourg what for. I admire his pluck, spunk and drive. He stands up for hard working British people and UK Plc together. He's for cutting red tape and traditional British values. Farage is a man who will get the job done and make sure it's fit for purpose. He wants hand ups, not hand outs. He wants people to get their fair share when they need it, not entitlements. I salute his indefagitability.
He is a politician and has spotted the only gap left in the market; that of plain speaking John Bull, the Englishman's Englishman.
He is, of course, a complete and utter self serving shite.
He is, of course, a complete and utter self serving shite
Which makes him different to which political party leader?
Which makes him different to which political party leader?
It makes him exactly the same as every other party leader, but with the need to continue to be the Englishman's Englishman, with all that implies for the future direction of the country.
Basically, it's 'I don't like darkies' in a Barbour jacket.
He's a bulbous throbbing bell end of truly biblical proportions. However, he's performing a very useful, possibly invaluable, social function in making it less likely (despite Eds best efforts) that the Tories will get a parliamentary majority.
So bloody good luck to him!

Always the racist card to win a lost political argument.
Well, if you'd like to actually present an argument.... 🙄

Good luck at the bingo.

Oi, I'm over 50 and I think he's a ****. Small minded little Englander with a poor grasp of the political actualité.

I don't think that explains your political persuasions quite clearly at all.
I don't understand, would you choose "that odd looking guy with the Lithuanian Marxist dad" or what ?
And why wouldn't you "even have to think about it" ? Don't you like thinking ?
If this according to you represents "an argument" then I suggest you work on it and give it some more thought 💡
Well you are arguing, so his point is valid to some degree.
Am I arguing ? I don't even understand the point he's trying to make, so how can I be arguing against it ? Does he support Farage or what ? He hasn't actually presented an argument, despite what he claims.
Am I arguing ?
Breathing? Check.
Posting? Check.
Arguing? ..... 😉
ok
