They will no doubt refuse. So go to your MP and complain about sweetheart deals,taxpayers money etc and threaten to go public. Be good fun even if you ultimately get the bum's rush You can't even get near those big organisations.

What happened to principles and sticking up for those struggling in this country. Long forgotten mate the smell of money corrupts the best of them, I agree. Also agree Farage is not the answer. He's very shifty imo ,and in the past funded by some dark forces. He's got a good act but if he ever were elected an MP or even lead the tory party, we would see a different side to him. He would promise the earth and fail to deliver. I read Reform's policies and I like some of them..fixing the health service and only starting to pay tax when you reach £20000. But promises are promises. I voted for brexit but they did not deliver on their promises. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

BGD 6,436 Posted November 14, 2023 Report Share Posted November 14, 2023 It's pretty much nailed on that Starmer will win and with a huge majority at the next election and honestly that should terrify everyone. Blair's authoritarianism turned up to 11... 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
chartpolski 23,914 Posted November 14, 2023 Report Share Posted November 14, 2023 Farage was an MEP for 21 years. If he was paid £2 million that’s around £95,000 a year, good money if you can get it, but hardly excessive in respect of that place. Lord Mandelson, Labour MP and Vice President of the European Commision will have made as much, possibly a lot more. Neil Kinnock, Leader of the Labour Party and EU Commissioner, same again. Chris Patten, Tory MP and EU Commissioner, same again. There will be a lot of others who have had their snouts in the EU trough so Farage is hardly alone. Cheers. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
