Maybe we should combine  this thread and the UKIP thread into one.

 

We could call it Nigel Farage, The Cult Of Personality thread.

It’s a newly formed party, doing very well according to some polls, although they are not always right.  Can’t wait to see how it does in the EU elections.

Its interesting to see the media going after Farage and the party because of a significant donation to the party.

 

Like Labour and the Tories have never had a big donor in the past.

Quite.

 

Both are single issue partys (on the same issue), but UKIP has pretty much fallen apart since his departure and can't be far off calling it a day.

He opens up another party about Brexit and it soars in popularity?

Nigel finally gave up on trying to keep a lid on the unsavoury aspects of many UKIP members, it's now openly racist, which is why Nigel formed his new party. It does seem as if the new party's root are already showing through though - Brexit party figures who left over offensive posts are still directors:

Two senior members of Nigel Farage’s

Brexit party who left their roles after the Guardian reported offensive social media messages they had sent are still directors of the organisation weeks after they had supposedly cut all ties, it has emerged.

Catherine Blaiklock, the first leader of the party, who resigned over a series of anti-Islam messages, and the former treasurer Michael McGough, who was ousted because of antisemitic and other offensive Facebook posts, are still listed as directors.

...

The only other two directors are Farage and the new treasurer, Phillip Basey, a former Ukip activist.

The new party is going to have the same problems with racism that the old one did.

The Brexit party is already giving the EU nightmares. The one thing they fear is large numbers of Brexit MEP`s .

 

They are going to cause a lot of damage to the tories and Labour in the Euro elections.

But I thought didn’t we had any power to cause the EU nightmares?

Did you know that the Communist Party of Great Britain are telling their members to vote for Farage's Brexit Party?

Didn't UKIP say the same about the local elections last week?
