Nigel Farage is flying more than 3,000 miles to speak at a pro-Trump U.S. think tank.

For around 12 hours’ work this Saturday the Reform UK leader is expected to collect £27,856.88 from the Club for Growth, a Washington-based anti-tax lobby group that has pledged to work closely with Donald Trump ahead of the 2026 U.S. midterms.

This group helped raise ÂŁ120m for Republican candidates in the 2024 election.

So while people in Clacton deal with rising costs, poverty and cuts Farage is being paid the equivalent of many people’s yearly salary to give a single speech in America.

I think the poster means when the "deportations" start, but Remain said that houses would lose 30% if we voted to leave, people still voted to leave. In reality the bond market runs house prices not the EU.

Who are they going to deport?

People who use their phone too much, so that will be two thirds of the population.

Better than joining a bunch of antisemites and radical Islamists disturbing a city centre screaming "from the river to the sea!"

I didn't realise they were the only two options.

I, and I'm sure Nigel Farage will give that a miss.

Farage will encourage them from afar

But see, there are more than 2 options

Depends on how big the cheque is.

Meanwhile, these far right thugs have all encouraged the dross in society to burn up areas of Belfast. Utter scum.

I think it's totally reasonable to get paid for working. Yes, its a lot, but good luck to him. I don't think that we should be capping earnings at the Clacton average or whatever you are suggesting.

He should be representing his constituents, don't you agree with that? He's paid to represent them, he claims to believe in democracy but doesn't represent his constituents.

He complains that he is unsafe to do surgeries despite having a 5 million gift for security, or was it for Brexit? He's claimed both.

Exactly! And his claim of being a politician most at risk of attack. What about the late Jo Cox?

Or David Ames.

I bet Diane Abbott could beat him on online threats

Are people rerunning the Brexit referendum? Jesus get over it . Its all just to deflect from a 5 million pound bribe from a foreign source.

That should be headline news each day now until he heroically goes up against the establishment bin face!
