Yes, trevgo, you could be describing a certain type of Brexit supporter, in which case Farage will be amongst his peers. But at least his participation will expose his hypocrisy and xenophobia to a wider audience and help bring down the nastiness that is Brexit. Good work!
Ha, another cheap, stuck-up and desperate attempt to tarnish the BREXIT voters.

There were just as many lower educated people who voted to stay. That's not to say that the lower educated shouldn't have their voices heard and just because someone has been through higher education it doesn't mean they're in touch with reality either.

I suggest you look up the word xenophobia because you obviously don't know what it means, despite the fact that I assume you've been through higher education. Evidently, that doesn't account for much.

No one is disputing that, so what's your point?

It was a dishonest scare tactic. Douglas Carswell's take on it was interesting:


https://www.theguardian.com/commenti...ote-leave-ukip
Everything to do with Britain's borders. Other countries cannot control who arrives in their country, every arrival could be fast tracked into citizenship of that country. Every arrival could eventually have the right to enter the UK to live, to work, to avail themselves of the NHS and much more and we would have no right to deny them that ability as EU citizens. Criminal records would be unknown from original country of origin. IT was far from dishonest it was on the button. WE cannot control who becomes an EU citizen and therefore who has rights in this country as an EU citizen.

A pertinent and concise post that perfectly sums up why we had to vote LEAVE.

As in many things British, where we tread others follow and improve on the original, which means we won't be the last member state to call time on the EU and make a success outside it.

How did they get into Croatia? Refugee is a clearly defined condition once asylum has been granted so a rather presumptuous detail. You clearly remember it the way others intend you to.
I remember it the way the photographer told it in the article he wrote about his experience. He was closer to it all than the chap who cropped it and slapped a bit of UKIP branding on the side. You should give it a read some time.

Very unlikely any of the six founding members from 1958 would pull the plug on their own project which would only leave us with one which had swung to the far right such as Austria or perhaps one of the 12 new accesssion states ie. none of whom would be a serious loss for the EU (and there are still others who are trying to join)

Nigel Farage is on LBC for the rest of this week apparently between 10pm and 1am.


Former UKIP leader Nigel Farage is to present a daily chat show on the London radio station LBC.

The Nigel Farage Show will air from 19:00 to 20:00, Mondays to Thursdays, with the host describing it as "full of opinions, callers and reaction".

Have really enjoyed his shows this week, although maybe a LITTLE LESS about Brexit would have been preferable.
He listens and is prepared to hear both sides of the argument and is very respectfull to all the callers, unlke that a***wipe O'Brien!

I thought he wanted his life back. He's hardly doing that hosting a daily radio show.

Hour on the radio up against Corrie and Eastenders or whatever on the telly.
Hardly the stuff of legend.

No, a reasoned and measured critique of those who voted for the imposition of chaos on my country and now expect me and others to get in line and support their madness. I have no idea of the educational background of the electorate but it is pretty obvious the vote for self-destruction is not rational and as Brexit unravels this is becoming more and more obvious. And xenophobia - the unreasonable fear or hatred of foreigners, strangers and their cultures, ok? Fits the bill as regards Brexit, I think.

Brexit hasn't even started yet and it is a complete disaster. You self-destruct if you want to, I don't.

Would you kindly point out these 'disasters' that have ben caused pre-Brexit, it would appear that until Mrs May triggers A50 the economy is doing quite well, unemployment is decreasing again perhaps until A50, who can say what will happen after next March??

How will the oxygen thief do his paid job in the European Parliament? You know, the one he was elected to do on behalf of his constituents.

Does not alter the fact he may have misrepresented the situation which still did not address the problem as regards how they arrived in Croatia and what gives him the right to label them refugees when that is a defined state.

Well, he hasn't been doing it so far anyway...

Yes, the damp squib of Brexit hasn't even been set off yet and the country is already split from top to bottom with person set against person and enormous apprehension generated about the future. Extreme nationalism and xenophobia are widespread and the prospects for an orderly end to all this are poor. And that is before the Brexit process has even started. I think the word 'disaster' was not strong enough, I should have written 'catastrophe' Oh, and by the way, those parts of the economy that appear to be doing well at the moment are due to the weak pound. That will all change later this year and become much worse.

Racially, our area has always been quite insular. A black person stands out, for example. I have to say, though, the number of ethnic minorities, the polish especially, is increasing. I work for a huge tech company, and more and more of my customers are poles, and a fair few of them are business customers. So they are contributing to our economy. As with British citizens, there are many on benefits, also.

I think I have posted this before, that I have not had an argument, discussion, stand up fight with anyone I know, I don't even know amongst my friends who voted Remain/Exit because we don't talk about it, might I suggest that the only place that this 'split' exists is in the minds of the DS Remainers, and that is very far from a disaster or even a catastrophe,

Britain's borders are as full of holes as an old string vest. Ports, harbors, creeks, airfields and transport hubs are often wide open due to border force budget cuts by you-know-who when she was Home Sec. Now she bleats on about being the nation's saviour. I wouldn't trust her with a rowing boat let alone our non-existent maritime fleet of border patrol vessels. UK border control is a shambles due to the neglect of the government, and it's no good blaming anybody else.

Lucky you, John. We'll see who is right.

Border controls are not just about who comes in but what they are allowed to do whilst they are here. Illegal immigrants by definition have to break the law just to survive. We know the Tories have been ineffective and negligent with our borders. Are you finally agreeing something should be done to make borders and immigration control, and expulsion of those here illegally, more effective?

Too damn right! Once we had a respected and efficient customs and immigration service and our borders were properly controlled. Then politicians dismantled it all leaving the shambles we have today, much of the responsibility for which falls heavily on Mrs Mays inadequate shoulders.
