Nigel Farage’s return to “frontline politics” is going to bring nothing but division and diversion suggests Matthew Steeples
Nigel Farage just can’t help himself: A failed candidate seven times in British Parliament elections and leader of UKIP twice, this bombastic brute is now “returning to frontline politics” in order to “challenge Theresa May’s ‘fraudulent’ Brexit plan.”
A man of contradictions, Farage – who is anti-Prince Charles, pro-Vladimir Putin and in favour of the legalisation of handguns in the UK – wrote of his intentions in this morning’s Daily Telegraph in an article titled: “The time has come to teach the political class a lesson: I’m back fighting for a real Brexit.” In the opinion piece, he remarked:
“Over the last few months, and particularly since the Chequers betrayal, scores of people have stopped me in the street to ask: ‘When are you coming back?’ Well now you have your answer: I’m back.”
“Theresa the Appeaser has produced a set of ideas that are nothing more than a cowardly sell-out. With all this in mind, now is the time for action.”
“It is now beyond doubt that the political class in Westminster and many of their media allies do not accept the EU referendum result. It is equally clear to me that, unless challenged, these anti-democrats will succeed in frustrating the result.”
“Well, I’ve had enough of their lies, deceit and treachery. The time has come to teach them a lesson – one that they will never forget.”
In response to this predictable publicity stunt, James McGrory, of the pro-remain People’s Vote campaign group, told The Guardian:
“Nigel Farage has had more comebacks than Frank Sinatra, just without the success. If he was serious about making a return to frontline politics, he would stand to be an MP. I can only hope that Nigel Farage sticks to the promise he made live on TV to have a people’s vote on the final Brexit deal.”
In reality, all this move shows is that Farage is nothing but self-motivated. In the past I’ve termed him a “man of the elite” but now I’ll go further: Nigel Farage is nothing but a self-serving meddler and yet again – mark my words – the insane nightmare he desires serving up to the British public will fall flat on its face.

He is one thing and that is a PRAT.
I’ve wanted to say this for a while also: Rod is a PRAT
As a property professional, I am sick of hearing people talking down the market in London because of Brexit. We’re doing swimmingly well and sales are up month on month in my office. Buy now and you won’t regret it.
The man is a bore.
It is so illogical to carry on down the path without a plan. Theresa May needs to stop wandering in the mountains and get her house in order. Farage is indeed just a diversion – he will never get power though he certainly has been the biggest influence in all of this mess.
Farage, having his space shared by Rod and Yolanda and thinking the disaster of Brexit is a good idea.
Nice to see you are Coming Back Mr Farage .Just do what you do best.
Sort things out and get us out of the Euro.
As far as I am aware, Britain has never been part of the Euro currency so it would be impossible to leave (given we’re not even part of it).
