Farage’s Rage Going Viral

Nigel Farage’s “What gives you the right?” speech from Wednesday is bang on the money and going viral with nearly 50,000 views in two days:

The officials in the chamber always laugh when Farage holds up the mirror, but those smirks are looking more and more like gallows humour every day. Even Mrs Fawkes, who is not in the least interested in politics, wanted the volume turned up when she overheard this one…

      Under the Lisbon CONstitution, there is a provision for the death penalty for those that upset the EU. Nigel better watch out from the Euro nutters.

            Re the BBC debt map, Seen Elsewhere =>

            VERY unusual for the BBC to produce something like that?

            But anyway, if France owes us 220bn, and we owe them 210bn, can’t we use some kind of bucket accounting to end up with only 10bn owed in total?

            Re the debt map.

            They (the bbc) have already admitted to me in writing that not all the debts are included. In fact the vast majority are left off.

            The number for Debt to GDP is even half that of the ONS

            Cameron does not have the backbone to stand up to a minority part called the Lie Dumbs let alone the EU or Germany. Clegg, of course, wants to be part of a Unite States of Europe. His ancestry comes from Germany ie his mother.

            People of this country need to wake up ASAP before we are taken over by a German dominated EU. Germany knows our main source of income comes from the city of London. They are going to take that away by taxing it for Europe, if this happens the UK will be forced to be taken over like italy and Greece.

            I used to wonder if Blair,Brown and co were deliberately trying to make the country bankrupt. I dismissed it and just thought they were economic lunatics even though they had a good eduction. I am now beginning to wonder if this was a deliberate ploy so the UK had no alternative but to join the pan European state through economic necessity under the scam of claiming it was a global/European financial crisis.

            I suggest there is a whole scale clear out of the civil service. Clearly not fit for purpose as we have seen in the MoD, Whitehall etc. It needs to be rid of socialist left wing people who are manipulating ministers to act contrary to the national interest.

          I seem to remember reading that at the time. When the EU ‘abolished’ the death penalty they specifically reserved it as an option to be used in defence of themselves.

      Awesome stuff from Farage – the uncomfortable smiles and grimaces from plums like Van Rompuy show how right on the money this speech is.

      It is a shame that most of the rest of the current UKIP resemble the loudmouth in the pub because Farage is correct and the only politician in the UK (and probably Europe) not frightened to call them out on this stuff.

We all know what German and French politicians think and the silence from the places like Spain and Portugal is at least understandable but Holland? Sweden? Austria? – does no one in these countries care about what i being done in their names?

            “How exactly are EUKIP going to achieve a vote swing from circa 1.5% of votes cast in the last general election, to +35% or higher share in the next general election? You want to bargain at the big table, then you need to have parliamentary seats and the votes that go with them. Farage could not even unseat that moron Bercow , he finished third behind some independent character who had a man in a dolphin suit as his main campaigner…”

    Farage represents the UK IP, not the EIP, or ENP so if he’s fighting for someone it should be the UK not just England. Or by England did you mean Britain because just like Cameron do you believe Scotland is just like Kent, only instead of nice Tory voters it’s full of chippy people.

Ross, Flinders, Mungo Park and Livingstone explored. Admirals and Generals like Cochrane and Campbell swept the seas and raped the Indian sub continent.

      Nope. Firstly the 1986 FS Act was about removing restrictive practices and introduced regulation. Brown’s FSMA 2000 increased the burden of regulation through the Failed FSA whose overweening tickbox prescriptive detailed and utterly ignorant and unaccountable reg-yew-lay-shun precipitated the failure of about a dozen banks. It was reg-yew-lay-shun through the various Basel accords that encouraged banks into profligacy. FS is massively over- and badly-regulated. Regulation is the problem.

    Here is the treaty that the EU is trying so desperately to have ratified. It is the most dangerous treaty to date and yet our leaders and their state-controlled media aren’t even mentioning it. This will allow the EU to asset-strip any one or all of the 17 Eurozone member countries within 7 days, in order to prop up their failing currency. This is why they tried to ban the debt ratings agencies. They are just biding time until this is in place. What type of government do we have who would sign off on such a treaty? Who would even consider being a member of a regime that works in this way. Please watch the short video (German with English subtitles). The actual treaty document is in the link below it.

        Someone at the Beeb loves Ed. They gave him multiple free Party Political Broadcasts on Wednesday allowing him to attack the Government while on a supposed “Youth Employment” fact-finding mission in Chatham. His rant was then edited and rebroadcast every half hour as “news”. This seems to be the tactic as other oiks from the loser party are given similar opportunities outside of the normal comment on Government actions or economic reports.

      Sadly, whether or not the people of Britain wake up and listen to Farage is irrelevant – because they won’t be allowed any sort of vote on the subject until 2015 at the soonest, and even then it will be mired in GE-speak.

      Farage is a one trick pony, somewhat bonkers, and watching him on QT recently – despite coming across as holier than though – is quite prepared to lie through his teeth. Oh! and like my teams goalie, he’s not very good in the air.

      You’re right though – not just the Euro elections, unfortunatley he’ll take quite a lot of Tory votes at the next GE – which will mean Milliband will become our PM and Balls our Chancellor. Then it will really be time to leave the country.

    During the “Norway Debate” that took place in 1940 and resulted in the fall of the Chamberlain government and Winston Churcill becoming PM changing the entire course of the war which until then was one of unparralled defeat and lacklustre leadership Arthur Greenwood Leader of the Labour Party and leader of the Opposition rose to reply to Chamberlain. As he did so Leo Amery a Conservative MP shouted across the floor of the House…”Speak for England, Arthur ! Speak for England !”

    This was regarded as the crucial moment that tipped the tide against Chamberlain who realised that he had no course but to resign even though the government squeezed through and won the Confidence Vote…never has there been a moment when someone is needed to “Speak for England” and the vast majority of this country…so go to it Nigel

      ‘I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around [the banks] will deprive the people of all property until their children wake-up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered. The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs.’
