Nigel’s statement. Resigning as MP. Forcing a by-election. Will stand again.

If the outcome is extreme then that is the fault of our current politicians, not the voters or the future leaders.

Voters bear a large part of the blame for swallowing the racist lies of the right-wing press and opportunistic RWR politicians.

Voters are in charge. You or politicians can't blame them or tell them they are wrong, they just have to persuade them to vote otherwise.

Most Reform or Restore voters DON'T think they're perfect in every way, they will have definite issues with some policies. But to a large number of them, these parties are less bad than Labour and Tory parties, because of the terrible way they've both failed at protecting the population from invasion.

Immigration is the No1 issue to many voters, by such a long shot that they'll put up with lots of other policies that they don't agree with.

Hopefully nobody is still chanting the dumb line that concern about immigration is racism, that stupid argument was buried lots of years and a few million of additional population ago.

Like the way that telling people here that they are wrong is acceptable?

Did you notice what I said about racist lies?

It is neither dumb nor stupid.

Voters are the masters of the politicians, not the servants. They think whatever they like, nobody has the right to tell anyone they're voting wrong.

Does your home front door have a lock? Do you use it? Why?

So you have never criticised people for voting Labour?

I completely accept that a significant minority of the British public are stupid enough to think that voting Labour is a good idea. I don't agree with them, but accept that they will do this. Mainly because most of them are on benefits so are voting entirely for self-interest and don't care about the greater good or the future, but that's life.

BBC Radio 4 Today:

Q: “What is your appeal going to be to the people of Clacton?”

Count Binface: “Well… I’m not Nigel Farage.”

Count Binface
@CountBinface
I can neither confirm nor deny that Robert Jenrick has asked to defect to the Count Binface Party. I can confirm that the answer's no.

So in other words you think they are wrong to vote as they do.

"I will accept Nigel Farage’s request to be appointed Steward and Bailiff of the Manor of Northstead.

It is a farce and a desperate distraction, and the people of Clacton deserve better.

But if he wants to spend the summer arguing with a bin, I won't stop him."

BBC: "have you ever been to Clacton?"

@CountBinface
: "no, because I understand from the current incumbent that is part of how you do the job."

 

[morqthana]

I wonder, if he's re-elected, will there be anything to be investigated by the electoral commission as the £5 mil gift would have been well over 12 months before he was (re)elected?

Like the way that if you get stopped for driving without a licence, or insurance, they drop the charges if you go and get a licence, or insurance?

Let's hope when the count is tallied it turns out to be 'Bindependance Day'

Nigel should have stood down a few weeks back and gone against Andy Burnham OMG that would have been awesome.

 

[Munroast]

meanwhile - the looney lefties are now going to award childcare to folk who don't work - LOL

Farage will always win against these utter clowns
