Nigel Farage phone hacking

James Carmichael · Saturday at 8:22 AM

Nigel has been extremely brave talking about how his phone was hacked by the Russian state. I am sure this places him and his family at risk from reprisals by the Russian state, who will not like having their activities revealed in thsi way. Likewise, it'll bring into sharp focus for him the risks he runs as he undertakes his important work to defend Britain; the assassination attempt in France will be very much in his mind again.

So, it's absolutely disgusting that the Labour party and their stooges are trying to create politics out of it.

Honestly, this just feels like classic distraction tactics from Farage to draw eyes away from where that £5 million crypto donation actually went. If an actual hostile state had penetrated a high-profile politician's phone and bank accounts, the National Cyber Security Centre would have been all over it from day one instead of us hearing about unnamed "counter-espionage experts" in a Sunday tabloid. It is pretty telling that he is only playing the Russian interference card now that the parliamentary standards watchdog is breathing down his neck.

IF Fromage is telling the truth about "the Russians" - and it is a very big "IF" - it is a threat to national security.
And it is imperative that we investigate any breaches of national security.

You are not a British hater, are you?

Edited for grammar.

All political parties try to 'create politics' out of things that occur within other parties inc. of things involving their leaders.

Is that how it works for you?
If you cant be bothered to load the dishwasher, do you distract the wife with giving her a pearl necklace ?
Do you all then forget about the dishwasher and the plates and dishes find their way into the cupboard?

Does anybody ever really play the card game anymore?

It was a tongue to the left of mouth comment.

The Murdoch press have spent years hacking the phones of royalty, politicians, footballers, disappeared children and murder victims.

Doubtless professional spies do it as well.

Farage must be well aware that nothing on a phone can be considered confidential.

Five million quid from an offshore tax-dodger?

Look! A squirrel!

Brave? it took it him several days to come up with a spin that smeared the grauniad , and was plausible to his gullible followers. Pootin would have been delighted.

Bolleuax, he's their friend and useful (non) idiot.

It will take more than another milkshake to see off the real threat - Re store are polling at 7% in Makkerfield. The irony.

Sadly, people who vote for him are bothered that his party is in the hands of the Russsians.
