I used to like Farage, now I just think he's a nasty, petty, spiteful piece of work. Not to mention a serial liar.

The sort of proof that would stand analysis in court should HNH choose to sue him for libel? |

Many many things, both little ones and big fat ones. James O Brien gave some very specific ( and provable) examples the other day on his show..

Ahh, so now we have Kippers digging up his past...
Let's counter by seeing how many unsavoury things we can find in Farage's past. Farage is fair game and so is anyone in the public eye especially if those allegations weren't disproved . |

Oh, he also blames Merkel for the deaths in Berlin.
https://www.theguardian.com/politics...-politics-live es, well of course he would know more about extremists than me, Mr Cox. He backs organisations like Hope Not Hate who masquerade as being lovely and peaceful but actually pursue violent and very undemocratic means. And I’m sorry Mr Cox, but it is time people started to take responsibility for what’s happened. Mrs Merkel has directly caused a whole number of social and terrorist problems in Germany. It is about time we confronted that truth. When Ferrari put it to Farage that Cox had suffered more from extremism then anyone, Farage replied: Yes, it’s a terrible thing what happened to his family, with the murder of his wife, but he continues to be active in the political arena. And given some of the organisations he supports, I can’t just stand here and say I’m not going to respond. |

A lot of us have noticed the extravagant use of the law, especially libel when making claims, often true, against the filthy left..... time for a re-think of the law in this country.

Brendan cox is an opportunist, a thoroughly dislikable slug we will unfortunately be hearing a lot more from as he capitalises on his 'fame'.

Fair comment from Farage, if Cox is active on the political scene he will have to put up with those who disagree with him. The fact that his wife was murdered does not make him an expert on anything.
I am sure Brendan Cox wouldn't use his wife's murder for political gain. Or let me put it this way - he shouldn't use her murder for political gain. |

I was rather surprised that, in the days following his wife's death, the grief-stricken husband was able to collaborate with two of the country's leading PR agencies to organise a memorial a mere seven days later. Memorials are usually held quite some time after a person's death, not before they have even been buried. The whole thing was a political event conveniently timed on the eve of the referendum.

And who made Farage an expert on apportioning blame? This is not about disagreeing with Cox, but blaming his politics for causing deaths - he may say Jo Cox's death as a terrible thing but he is justifying it retrospectively..
I think you'll find these people are as bad as each other. I don't have much respect for Brendan Cox I think he is a chancer for all sorts of reasons that might become apparent later but by the same token I am not a supporter of Farage generally. But let us get some perspective politics are politics they take no prisoners on either side. |

Farage would probably be chuffed to bits if he knew so many people were discussing his views.
