johnny boy68 11,726 Posted November 6, 2015 Report Share Posted November 6, 2015 Cameron isn't stopping him per se, its been around since the 1980's.......party leaders who have more than 6 seats can attend. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BGD 6,436 Posted November 6, 2015 Report Share Posted November 6, 2015 The man himself didn't get millions of votes, every time he's stood for Parliament he's failed to win his seat. Three times now I think it is? He isn't even a member of Parliament, why should he lay a wreath with the other leaders of major UK parties? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If the rule says you need more than 6 seats well that's fair enough. If it wasn't the case then I would say 4 million people voting UKIP and him being the leader of the party would give him a good reason to lay a wreath. SNP got 2.5 million votes I think?

That's not how the British system works, votes spread across the country mean exactly f**k all. Seats are all that matters. Farage is a past it joke anyway, has been ever since that farce around his fake resignation. UKIP really missed a trick there, I know all my lefty pals were really concerned by the idea of Paul Nuttall taking over leadership, a much more effective politician than the unelectable Farage Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Truth be known he has no ambition to be a real political force here, he showed that with his lack of interest in fighting for a seat in his constituency. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Lack of interest? :laugh: They threw everything and the kitchen sink at it, he was so confident he'd win he said he he'd step down as leader if he lost. Then he lost and didn't keep his word Doesn't have any ambition to be a Westminster politician, that's why he's stood in FIVE General Elections Edited November 6, 2015 by BGD Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Blackbriar 8,569 Posted November 7, 2015 Report Share Posted November 7, 2015 Whatever the 'why's and wherefore's', there won't be any concessions that might give any credibility to Farage or to UKIP...... Jeremy Corbyn is proof of what happens when an 'extremist' gains credibility and some level of acceptability, and while the supposed renegotiations on the EU are ongoing, they will do everything possible to keep him 'off air'. I'm equally sure that Farage will do everything possible to get 'on air'.......... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
