Seems Farage has an announcement to make at 4pm today.

He got us the Brexit referendum. Thank you.

Oh and I thought that was David Cameron, silly me!

No thanks from me.

Maybe he’s standing against Yvette Cooper in her Leave voting marginal constituency!

I hope he does, she will trounce him. I suspect though that if he does stand it will be in a current Tory seat with a dodgy MP, as he’s got more chance of winning that than any red wall seat. I’d be surprised if he wins any seat though, he is, as keepingquiet said, a chancer.

Yvette Cooper has a very slim majority c.2k votes. Plus it was a Leave constituency and she was rubbishing those who voted for it. Put Farage in there to set the cat amongst the pigeons maybe as voters have long memories when they feel they’ve been diddled.

I know, but that was the 2019 election, the YouGov/Sky seat by seat poll coming out later today will I’m sure show she has increased her majority substantially. Hers is not a target seat for Reform, they are going for seats where UKIP did well in 2019, which is where there are suspect Tory MPs. With a big swing to Labour, going for seats which Labour already hold would be pointless.
Survation did a piece of work showing which seats they are most likely to win, although probably none.

Nobody seems to be able to tell me what is good about him. Apart from " tell it as it is" which could mean anything.

The point being though under international law, which we are signed up to 🙄. Asylum seekers are not illegal.

👏👏👏👏

He really is Marmite isn’t he?

Pray for Clacton!

Rumour has it it will be Clacton

Well, to me, it’s obvious he is going to stand for election as an MP. He’ll have his fans, no doubt 😕.

Urms maybe my prayers have been answered and he is taking a one-way ticket somewhere, anywhere.

🙏🙏😂😂

I fear that point is lost on many who don't want more " of them"

Hence their adoration of Frage.

What do his fans like about him? Other than the fact that he goes to Dover and counts illegals. Absolutely vile.

Hopefully the announcement will say he’s off to live alone on a desert island with no Wi-Fi

Oh we wish!

His opinion about Trump wouldn’t constitute ‘an emergency (his words) announcement’ though.
🤔

He's going to join the Tories. They will find him a safe seat that's being vacated and all those that think he's the bee's knees will vote for him.

Or else he's going to say that it's all lies about Trump.

I admit to being curious. It killed the cat, I know.

Reform Party were already giving their Election Broadcast today at 16.00.

Thanks for the warning, I shall put radio 3 on and enjoy some music!

Wonder what Tice really thinks of him?

What a narcissist! How important does he think he is to announce an ‘emergency announcement’? He’s desperately trying to turn this election into ‘The Nigel Farage Show’. The media shouldn’t be giving in to him but, of course, they can’t resist a showman - even a sh**show man like NF
