Nice one Nige.

Not too proud to take their money and allowances though, is he?

Grandstanding cunt.

He's a nobber and a hero, a champion and a hypocrite. The thought of him having power scares me more than anything other than the thought of anyone else having power.

On this one, I fully agree with him, and I thank the Noodly Appendage that this didn't all kick off while Blair or Broon were in power, or we'd have handed over the remaining shreds of our sovereignty and economic policy control faster than a drunken chav giving up her virginity in the back of a stolen Fiesta.

He knows he will never have power, he knows what he says won't make a blind bit of difference and that 99% of people don't care or will ever hear it, but I for one and glad he is there ripping into them.

Short of storming the EU, dragging them out, executing them all in the street, what else do we have?

You will not see revolution in Europe. (Like that French one.)
You will see political/social unrest, pikeys and other scum complaining 'aht laahd'.
There is now no balance of power.
Not since that failed dictatoress Thatcher sold the Crown Jewels of the nation to the fat cats and prosecuted the trade unions (for complaining).

The establishment have the armoury and need not worry about what the Great Unwashed will do.
There is fuck-all left to save in Europe anyway, the clever money is already piled high in Asia/China.

All we should worry about is this 'the implosion of Europe' will create a vacuum that the Eastern block 'mafia' will fill.

That is a bigger worry for me.

Yeah, can we keep in mind that he is as corrupt as the rest of them?

£2m Expenses Claims

Farage is windbag, his only interest is keeping his snout in the trough and there is nothing in that video that shows otherwise.

[Walloper]

Just saw this.

It is a slow day in a damp little Irish town. The rain is beating down and the streets are deserted. Times are tough, everybody is in debt, and everybody lives on credit. On this particular day a rich German tourist is driving through the town, stops at the local hotel and lays a €100 note on the desk, telling the hotel owner he wants to inspect the rooms upstairs in order to pick one to spend the night.

The owner gives him some keys and, as soon as the visitor has walked upstairs, the hotelier grabs the €100 note and runs next door to pay his debt to the butcher.
The butcher takes the €100 note and runs down the street to repay his debt to the pig farmer.

The pig farmer takes the €100 note and heads off to pay his bill at the supplier of feed and fuel. The guy at the Farmers’ Co-op takes the €100 note and runs to pay his drinks bill at the pub.

The publican slips the money along to the local prostitute drinking at the bar, who has also been facing hard times and has had to offer him “services” on credit.

The hooker then rushes to the hotel and pays off her room bill to the hotel owner with the €100 note.

The hotel proprietor then places the €100 note back on the counter so the rich traveller will not suspect anything. At that moment the traveller comes down the stairs, picks up the €100 note, states that the rooms are not satisfactory, pockets the money, and leaves town.

No one produced anything. No one earned anything. However, the whole town is now out of debt and looking to the future with a lot more optimism.

And that, Ladies and Gentlemen, is how the bailout package works. No quantitive easing.......No bankers............No problem.

That is typically oversimplified bollocks for people to trawl out and think that it makes them look insightful, when really it makes them look a little bit daft.

Uh guys I am pretty sure that video was recorded about a year ago? Or is this just a VERY similar speech to one he has already done.

Shame he is quite so racist because otherwise it was awesome.

[Im-a-Ridah]

Farage does a great job, however the mainstream media are determined to give out as much misinformation as possible! Take the BBC, they are forever trying to make subtle implication that UKIP and the BNP are kinda similar, when in fact the BNP are socialists and essentially old Labour warmed up, whereas UKIP are Conservative Libertarians...

[chrisw]

[Im-a-Ridah]

It's like talking to a brick wall. Nigel Farage has not claimed 2 million in expenses because what he has been paid is NOT expenses. He is paid a salary (just like you!), and separately an accountant from the EU pays the salaries of staff to assist him in his duties in his constituency, since he serves millions of people and obviously can't deal with all of them. You are asking him to refuse his wage because he is opposed to European Union, which if he did would mean he would be dependent on sponsors for money, which you would also complain about! There is absolutely nothing wrong with an MEP (or MP) being paid to travel, or to have a second home, or employ staff, since they are generally required in order to do the job. What is not OK is claiming expenses that are not related to the job, such as a duck house or a moat. In any case, it is completely irrelevant as he will continue to get paid and will continue to oppose the European Union, and I'm quite confident he will be reelected again at the next election and I think he is doing a great service to his constituents which is more than can be said for most of them.

[Rogerborg]

Seems apropos to note that ze Germans have started a new phase in European integration... "We must take concrete steps towards a fiscal union [...] We need budget discipline and effective crisis management mechanisms. So we need to change the treaties or create new treaties."

Anyone else get a shiver down their back hearing that? Try it in a German accent, and imagine some podium thumping.

Treaty changes are the only way out.

[Rogerborg]

[Mushroom]

They will be related to control over national budgets in return for being bank rolled by the ECB - apparently everything is naturally flowing towards a coordinated union in which euro bonds just happen to be the end result, so there doing nothing more than taking part in what's already naturally happening but at the same time there not, this is not about control or handing over sovereignty, even sarkozy says, so they will have powers to control more but at the same time, its not like that, and also, there against euro bonds.
