Hmm.
Standing as a Reform MP after all?
Emigrating to America to canvass for Trump?
Joining the Tory party?
None of the above?

I shall tune in out of curiosity.

Actually your remarks are racist and I've noticed you do that a lot to try and shut down debate. No one on here has mentioned people's skin colour only you, you should be ashamed of yourself.

😀 nowhere - one trick ponies. Immigration, immigration, immigration.

Especially those with skin that isn’t white.

I think you are being racist actually mentioning people's skin colour.

Silly remark.

Its nothing to do with left leaning , the man is a racist and a rabble rowser.

Why is he racist because he wants to stop the boats well so does Starmer and the EU.

He is racist because he is racist. Here are just a few examples from before the boats were even on the agenda,

I really resent that remark. It is an important consideration WhiteWave I give you that, but there are others. Which is why I’m voting Reform UK.

Interesting that all the Essex MPs are Tory and yet the south east was one of the smaller recipients of levelling up funds.

Surely the South East is not exactly in need of levelling up funding?

Farage is right: we need a rebellion against the self righteous, smug establishment. He said Labour are going to win. Of course they are. But we need an opposition to hold their feet to the fire!

That won’t be Reform though.

All to play for Casdon! Look how well Reform have done on FB - apparently. I don’t use it but it has been reported so. There is a momentum gathering now that wants a good shake up of the Westminster bubble, SPADs, media luvvies.

Vote Reform.

Whats are their policies please?

Where do they stand on education,health, austerity ,climate change and so on please?

Google is your friend.

Why not call the party The BNP and have done. Horrid little man. Richard Tice is standing in my area (Boston & Skegness) and there's a lot of support for him on FB. Not from me! Connections to the KKK, I mean, you couldn't make this up!

Perhaps you've been led by donkeys 🤔 just saying. KKK don't be ridiculous 😂

Look at his past, he told the EU that he was going to get Britain out. They laughed at him. “Well you’re not laughing now” There is no doubt that it was Farage wot did it. He has great influence, and many voters like him.

He has absolutely no influence beyond his imagination and people too lazy or dim to think for themselves and properly research.

Okay Cossy let’s try to keep it clean eh? No need to fling personal insults around that just debases your argument.

I don’t consider myself ‘dim’.
Mind you ‘lazy’. …. Guilty as charged.
#lazygran indeed!

Farage is smug and self righteous in his own right. 🤷‍♀️

Isn’t he just! Just a look at his very smug face is enough to put one off grin

I assume you mean that the LP did not do enough. How can they either change the minds of the extreme right front bench or influence them when the current govt has such a large majority?

It’s a ghastly place with ghastly inhabitants.

It’s a deprived seaside town with a lot of poverty and interesting history.

Not everyone who comes from there is “ghastly” ditto Clacton.

I live near Southend, the Kursaal Borough is also a very deprived borough, like Jaywick, high unemployment, high drug use, but not everyone there is ghastly.

Jaywick has a Martello Tower, which is quite interesting. Personally, I wouldn’t choose to live there.

Clacton is depressing enough as it is with Farage being foisted on it.
