His background is irrelevant. He is a man of the people because he has demonstrated that he understands the needs of the common man far more than mainstream politicians.
He could be a multi-millionaire banker for all I care, his party is the only political party that talks about what the masses want and not what we are told they want by Lib/Lab/Con shills. |

http://c.newsnow.co.uk/A/862511276?-15102:21126:0 Here's a thought If as you claim you don't like him why not stop with all these endless threads you start on him that way he would get less publicity. |

You really are obsessed with Farage.

Of course the guy who claims £2m in expenses from the taxpayer is a man of the people. He has a cloth cap and a whippet!

He tapped into what the British people were thinking far sooner than many others and had to endure years of being ridiculed by the left and right that the EU was a non subject that the British people weren't bothered about.
Ultimately, they were all wrong and he was right. And those that slated him can't bear it. That makes me smile. |

Farage has claimed he is poor before...
When asked about his wife taking £27,000 of taxpayers money Farage said it was a 'modest' sum. He was a director for years of a company that had an unpaid tax bill of over £100,000, Farage attempted to make out he had nothing to do with the day to day running of the company and anyway he had resigned from the company. Except documents reveal he only resigned shortly before HMRC took the company to court, usually it takes 2-3 years before a tax matter ends up in court. He then boasted on LBC the company wasn't wound up and was paying the tax, infact he claimed twice what it owed, BUT.... Earlier this year the company was wound up still owing tax of over £100k, following an investigation the Administrator claimed a director had removed £100,000 from the company in what was described as an unlawful withdrawal. Yes the man of the people who boasted of having had millions of ordinary taxpayers money paid into his bank account, he is so in touch with the common people and their concerns he refuses to produce receipts or accounts of his spending of our money. He's so in touch with what the majority of people want he could only muster 4m votes in 2015, last night UKIP's share of the vote dropped and was about a quarter of the Conservatives. |

There have been MPs moaning about the EU since 1972.In 1975 Enoch Powell said he would not accept the Yes vote by the public in the 1975 referendum. Man of the people Tony Been vigorously campaigned against EU membership long before Farage surfaced.

As he states, he no longer has to keep the company of 'low grades'. Incidentally the only other time I have heard the term low grade, is from people who deemed to have learning disabilities and resided in the now fragmented institutional care system. The system then dictated their ability and status by labeling people low grade or high grade, the latter label being the lowest worthless position and for higher grades to use for whatever their desire.

Forage wants to be Middle East peace envoy.
I'm sure we will all wish him well as he parachutes into Allepo |

Its not that long ago that he and some other UKIP MEPs were taken to task by the EU because they were using their allowances to finance UKIP.
BIB is what MEPs get, not expenses. A man who chose not to have one but 2 taxpayer funded pensions. A man so rich he claimed he didn't know how much he'd taken from the pockets of hard working British taxpayers. No one forces him to take the allowances, no one forced him to set a group in the EU so he could take more money from British taxpayers. He very rarely attended meetings of an EU committee of which he was a member, although he was in the building and claimed the allowances. There was the infamous rent free constituency office in which he managed to spend £70,000, of which he claimed the annual electricity bill was over £3,000 a year. Again no receipts or audited accounts. There is nothing to stop him transferring to the Treasury consolidate fund the millions of pounds that has been paid into his personal bank account. |
