Yes, your goal was Brexit! Look where you got us with that you lying bastard. Not "reaped as many benefits as we ought"?! Pull the other one.

"I haven't broken any rules, and Gianni Infantino agrees with me"

Love it!

Edited: "Trump (checks notes), sorry Infantino, has offered me a job with FIFA."

Farage really would be kicked out of parliament.

Not much would change there, then

Secretsquirrelshh · 07/07/2026 14:16

He got paid £5 million for writing. Wow, J K Rowling should ask him for tips.

RafaistheKingofClay · 07/07/2026 14:16

Fuck off Farage. You are only able to give away your salary because of the money you get elsewhere. And it is a lot.

And that would be fine if it is being paid for speaking or writing or presenting a TV show. Being randomly gifted £5m or somebody paying for your staff is a bit different.

An influencer! The NF (appropriately).

Secretsquirrelshh · 07/07/2026 14:16

Come on Nige, piss or get off the pot.

Shortpoet · 07/07/2026 14:16

I often wonder what it is like to live with absolutely no sense of shame.

TheRestIsEntertsinent · 07/07/2026 14:17

Yes, success is good. Corruption and running away from scrutiny we don't need.

I can't bear this man.

Let’s not forget the £80 he got for saying up the ‘RA.

Investment bankers are paid lots but they do also work quite hard. They don't usually just get given £5 million.

Yeah right, those poor investment bankers striving and striving and never making millions. Poor things.

In any case, he has been in politics for years. The £5 million is a very recent thing. So the idea that he only went into politics for the big bucks is odd.

Awful excuse of a ‘man’.

LizzieSiddal · 07/07/2026 14:18

You cannot accept £5 million, without declaring it Nigel!!!!

gingeristhenewblack43 · 07/07/2026 14:18

Christ! How long is he going to waffle on for 😴

MargoLivebetter · 07/07/2026 14:18

OMG, is this just his very own puff piece?! Just bigging himself up with no actual point of interest?

LizzieSiddal · 07/07/2026 14:18

We don’t care Nigel!!

RafaistheKingofClay · 07/07/2026 14:18

You can do with that money what you wish. You just have to declare it.

Here’s the safety thing. Anyone got bingo yet?

footballsizedballofwool · 07/07/2026 14:18

Wish he would stop waffling and get on with it- I'm supposed to be working

Secretsquirrelshh · 07/07/2026 14:18

NOT a placard?! Someone start a fundraiser.

Oh, don’t worry, someone’s already done that.

TheRestIsEntertsinent · 07/07/2026 14:19

"The most physically and verbally attacked politician"? Tell that to the families of Jo Cox and David Amess.

Dickhead.

twocornichons · 07/07/2026 14:19

What about Jo Cox and Martin Amis - they were the most attacked not you

AnAutumnCrow · 07/07/2026 14:19

And I want to know if anyone has assisted him in allegedly laundering monies.

capitanaamerica · 07/07/2026 14:19

It better not be that he's moving to California again; we have enough grifters and Putin/Trump fanboys already.

( CLOSE ARE BOARDERS !!!!! )

Atkinsondesperation · 07/07/2026 14:19

KS said he definitely wasn’t going to leave and then left. Nigel has the opportunity to be better than KS here and tell the truth.

Pootles34 · 07/07/2026 14:19

The most attacked? He's not dead?! Actually how dare he.
