Oh my! Farage isn’t up to it - according to Musk😄😄

Farage is clearly the best leader for Reform, and the best PM for the UK.

Of course he is😊

Thank you, nurse Ratched.

Fantastic publicity for Farage. He is now officially the Man who Can't be Bought - even for 100 million dollars.
Thanks, Elon!

“The rift with Musk comes despite Farage describing him days earlier as a “hero figure” who had been “very helpful” to their cause.” *DAILY EXPRESS

Seems that he could be bought a couple of days ago. He seems to have difficulty making his mind up and maybe the money has been withdrawn no. All a bit unstable
.

You’re missing my point J52.

Farage would’ve liked those billions of dollars. He said so in the newspapers. Handy amount to use building up a fledgling party.

But once Musk showed his hand and tried calling the tube over allowing TR into Reform, Farage did stick to his principles by turning away from the $$$s and saying no 🎲

So, Musk falls out with Farage because Farage has stuck to his principles and doesn't want Tommy Robinson anywhere near Reform. I would go for Farage's principles over Musk's money every time.

So would I

Ha ha Freya, you are so ridiculous you actually cheer me up.

" Standing up for the British People" What a joke.

Well labour certainly aren’t

Many ARE fed up and disillusioned with the uniparty.
Reform are not an ultra-right party. They are appealing to the middle with sensible right-leaning policies. Musk may not like that, but such is life.

So having to ditch the so-called contract (manifest) because it reflected Liz Truss on steroids - I would very much like to read the new one that is middle of the road leaning slightly right😄😄

If Farage had supported Robinson, as he has shown to do in the past - he knows that it would be political suicide - Farage is a dab hand at hiding true principle.

Farage kicked TR out of UKIP years ago as well you would know Whitewave. Pre- Brexit referendum. Farage realises that TR would be toxic for Reform. He’s not daft.

It must be galling for those that are trying to tear into Reform that membership continues to soar even as we speak..

Why wouldn't it when the only alternative is the ongoing managed decline of our nation by the uniparty.....we have rejected that thank you!

I would have expected the type of politician Farage proports to be, to be more astute.
Cosying up to someone in the hope of financial gain without understanding or regarding their character isn’t a good look.

Who cosied who though J52? Farage + Trump (long standing) with Elon watching.
Elon will dump Trump next.

What was the Farage response to Musk's criticism because I can't find it anywhere? This morning, Farage was praising Musk for making Reform look "cool" and saying he would have a conversation with him at the inauguration. That was before Musk did the dirty on him, of course.

Fried Green Tomatoes loyalty to Farage is to be commended, even though Farage does not show the same loyalty to his acolytes.
Elon Musk's Father is now giving the world the benefit of his opinion, that Farage isn't up to it,(Party Leader? PM? ) while Farage has apparently said he will work with Peter Mandelson!
He will need a very long spoon for that.

No wonder it is said that politics is a dirty business.

Farage will have been stung by Musk's criticism, the man has gone to great pains to paint himself as pals with Trump and Musk. Fact is Musk really doesn't give a toss about anyone except Elon Musk, Farage is nobody to him, in fact whether or not he gives a toss about Trump remains to be seen, for now he is just enjoying the ride.
A truly vile human being.

This is how principled he is
‘Despite his staunch opposition to the European Union, Nigel Farage is set to claim his EU pension in three years when he turns 63.

The former MEP and Brexit figurehead has confirmed that he will accept the pension, which is estimated to be worth around £73,000 annually.

Farage, who spent years criticising the EU’s financial system and campaigning for the UK’s exit, has faced criticism for accepting this benefit, yet remains unapologetic, arguing it’s a contractual entitlement.

The irony of the situation has not been lost on his critics, many of whom point out the apparent contradiction in Farage’s stance.

As someone who has continuously lambasted the EU for wasteful spending and bureaucracy, his decision to keep the pension has sparked heated debate.

However, Farage maintains that he’s merely accepting what he is entitled to after nearly two decades as a Member of the European Parliament’
He didn’t even bother to turn up most of the time…

Farage is definitely not a slithery boot- licking crawler, like many. Good on him, this stance will gather even more support. The man had backbone

He knew that supporting Robinson would lose votes. He needs to keep his distance for political reasons. That's not backbone.

True of course.
However it takes some chutzpah not to cosy up for the sake of ££millions!

Farage.
A rare man of principle. He’s sticking to them.

Your definition of principle isn't the same as mine.

Shall we have a reminder of Farage's principles from Led By Donkeys?

That is disgusting. He made a mockery of being an MEP, contributing nothing. so much for a "man of principle".

Ah, but he always saw the EU as a vehicle to fiddle the system and make money for himself as the Led By Donkeys video explains. The one principle he and Musk share is the love of money and we know what that's the root of .

Farage did stick to his principles by turning away from the $$$s and saying no 🎲

Has he though FGT? Where does it say that Farage has ‘turned away’ from Musk’s money?

So far, all we’ve heard is Musk criticising Farage - not Farage turning away from Musk.

This is actually becoming quite comical.

Make Britain Great.

Take Back Control.

We want our country back.

Britain is Broken.

Echoes of Python alright.

The only reason Farage is distancing himself from Robinson is that he has to pretend that they don’t share the same political beliefs even though they do.

Exactly.

How I agree with you, .i so hope that does come about.
