[Ihateboris]

Oh dear...how's he going to explain this?

Quite and the same culprits making things up to suit their narrative. Disgraceful really.

Oh sorry forgot we are meant to slag Reform off?

Terribly sorry 😂😂😂😂😂

I have not seen anyone making things up.

Unless you mean Farage
But then you haven't seen the Channel4 footage

Oh yes I have been accused of lying, called an untrammelled capitalist? Also no don’t mean Farage, why would I? Actually watched the footage last evening, still no interest in it, he will be investigated and if any wrong doing with be dealt with correctly. Same as all the other parties should be or not.

If you think you were targeted, please report to MN

Conspiracy ? What conspiracy ?

Why do Reform voters just keep putting out sound bites that mean nothing. ?

Oh, I noticed I made an error in my bus thing. Not 20p to buffet, A tiny fraction of that. Ans multiply it by billions.

Ah wait. Because I mentioned Buffet ? Is that why you think conspiracy ? Gosh. I mentioned him, because at the time he owned a chunk of BYD. He has since sold it. My point was that that small bit is lost to the system. That is all, and I happen to remember at the time, that it was Buffet it was lost to. It might have been Ford or Toyota. Makes no difference. I am talking about the system. not individuals.

Goodness me.

Down is still down. By 42% in this instance.

As pointed out by Helen Whatley on BBC Question Time 24 September 2026, boat arrivals are down across Europe. So, the following logic still stands:

Fewer Mediterranean crossings equals fewer people entering the EU.

Fewer people entering the EU equals fewer people arriving in Calais.

Fewer people arriving in Calais equals fewer boat arrivals in the UK

Fewer boat arrivals is of course good. However, but it’s due to fewer people crossing the Mediterranean Sea rather anything that has been done by France or UK.

Then they’re not set. They’re capped. If they were set no utility company would be allowed to undercut the others and the current price war wouldn’t exist.

I don’t care what opposition politicians say. She certainly wouldn’t be saying that if the Tories were in power, they’d be shouting the decrease in numbers from the rooftops.

I said set price limit as stated on OFWAT website, maybe check it? Although OFGEM say cap. So no need to be pedantic.

Aw Red, don’t get in a tiz. Farage never had shares in BYD, checked it on full fact, they say no! Although to be honest couldn’t care less.

Nope to Buffet as well I am afraid. Actually as a side note, we previously supplied Ashton Martin who were then bought out by Ford.

The conspiracy is Farage selling off the NHS? Think he has discussed more of an insurance plan based on a European model. The German Model is very very good, used it a few times actually. The NHS in its current form is not working.

Dont go down that rabbit hole please and another please, where do you get I am a Reform voter? Never voted Reform in my life! Very amusing.

There is also a lease in the accounts for a studio. 10k a year. I think that might to used to take photos of the fish?

Take photos of the fish?

I think the studio must have been used for Farage's media work and cameos.

The employee could be an admin person.

The Times took a look at Farage’s ‘studio’:

https://archive.ph/oXW2Y

Nigel Farage is paying himself £50,000 in rent for a studio space at one of his own properties in an arrangement that falls outside parliament’s transparency rules and could allow him to lower his tax bill, The Times can reveal.

Analysis of the accounts of Farage’s personal service company, Thorn in the Side Ltd, shows that in May last year it agreed to pay Farage £10,000 a year over the next five years for the “rental of studio premises”.

If the rental payment was 1p more a year, it would breach the threshold requiring a declaration to the register of members’ interests.

Fewer people entering the EU is a fact regardless of who says it.

I didn’t say it wasn’t. 🤷‍♀️

Small boat crossings are down and that doesn't suit Farage's narrative. He looked a bit like an idiot with his Fairford speculations.

Why? Wasn’t one of the Brexit plans to reduce immigration?

Remain supporters can’t make their minds up. Not long ago they were saying that Brexit had failed as boat crossings had increased. Now they are excited about boat crossings declining.

Less people making the dangerous crossings means less people drowning.

I am a big fan of saving lives. Refugees are humans.

Watch BB Question Time 5 December 2024. Farage stated genuine refugees are welcome. Also, both Alastair Campbell and Nigel Farage agreed that immigrants were acceptable if they are working.

Ah yes, the good and bad immigrants. I have had that one, 'oh we don't mean you'

Probably the reason why you use 'expat'

Small boat crossings were not a thing in 2016 but Farage made it very clear with his poster which immigrants he was targetting.

Bit like they saying they want to protect women and girls but not the female heckler(s)

This poster. No white Europeans there even though they formed the majority of immigrants at the time.

@DuncinToffee

Small boat crossings were not a thing in 2016

Heard that one before too. The first boat crossing into the UK was in 2014. Two years before the 2016 referendum.

First boat crossings in the Mediterranean Sea were in the mid 1990s. 14 years before article 50 was passed in 2009.

The fact remains:

Zero migrants entering the EU equals zero migrants arriving in Calais.

Zero arrivals in Calais equals zero boat arrivals in the UK.

Is the UK responsible for the EU failure to control their borders in the Mediterranean Sea and Eastern Europe? No, they aren’t.

UK failure, as pointed out by The French president, Macron, is not reducing the pull factors.

A decade of small boat migrants - how did it begin? https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cy0w9zw57glo

Not in a tiz about anything. Here we are having a friendly chat as a diverse group, wee stories here and there... and you say I am somehow in a tiz and doing conspiricies.

Hey, each to their own.

@blossomtoes

People shifted from entering the UK via ferries and lorries to boats as security checks for ferries and lorries increased.

Illegals will always enter the UK for the following reasons:

It’s profitable for the gangs.

UK employers can employ them illegally and pay cash in hand below the minimum wage.

As Macron has said, UK needs to reduce the pull factors.

I thought this was interesting. Given the discussions above about James Orr etc, and the Evangelical money being poured into Reform, and maybe Restore.

Yes, Farage is not keen on Danny Tommo , sort of.. I think... but he supports the demonstrations. Seems complex.

But here is Danny turning up in court, for slashing a boat... and he has a Bible in hand.

They are all playing the Christian angle. Lowe is more strongly into that than Farage, but it is the money that counts. And Farage likes the money.

For anyone that does not click the link, I have attached a clipped photo from it. Credit Elizabeth Cook. Drawn a few days ago in another court hearing... and THE TEARS... THE TEARS.

Now, with the terror attack diesel theft (maybe)the other day, and having read the bonkers thread on that, it got me pondering. How do Reform define the Venn diagram of flat out racists, overlapping with the OT evangelicals, the pro trickle down advovates... and the "Plonkers" ? What circles do they prioritize and target to get their votes ?

Seems to me, IMO, hence anecdotally, they go for the plonkers. Because there are some of them in every circle.
