coale39 Posted 26 November 2011 Posted 26 November 2011 I'm not saying he's incorrec,t I was just concerned that some people who replied who thought his speech was great really understood the content and judging by one response my concerns were justified. Totally agree, what he says is true, however he and UKIP are clowns.
DANGEROUS TIGER Posted 27 November 2011 Posted 27 November 2011 Totally agree, what he says is true, however he and UKIP are clowns. So, he and UKIP are "clowns" are they?-- I don't think so. :huh:
coale39 Posted 27 November 2011 Posted 27 November 2011 So, he and UKIP are "clowns" are they?-- I don't think so. :huh: Yes, thats my opinion of them. However, to say any political party atm are "good" is impossible. Labour build the economy up on false house prices inflated by redic loans, and then now the Coalition finance their own 95% loans to help keep the bubble inflated. Then they try to convince the EU to commission currency forgery en masse to inflate away debt and prop up banks for their own interests. Then we have the EU, unelected technocrates, however the UK is unlikely to be competitive in future if we abandon the EU altogether. Then we have UKIP and smaller parties who spout obvious, popularist sound bites just to gain support. Then... ba....depressing.

I disagree with that, I think without the red tape of the EU we would become the favoured destination for Chinese investment, it could be the best thing that ever happened to us. Interesting article in the Wall Street Journal I was reading the other day... http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052970203699404577044172754446162.html

Interesting article in the Wall Street Journal I was reading the other day... http://online.wsj.co...2754446162.html European President Karl von Habsburg explained on Al Jazeera: "First, we were worried about the effect of another oil price hike on our beloved euro. But above all we were afraid of having radioactive fallout on our favorite resorts." Good find! Getting rid of red tape is one thing, however giving bankers less regulation is another.
Wherethefoxhat? Posted 28 November 2011 Author Posted 28 November 2011 Farage vs Brown www.youtube.comGordon Brown meets the real opposition when he visits Strasbourg. For those of you who have asked, Nigel spoke a few moments before Daniel Hannan lambasted G... Telling that shyster Brown a few home truths !!! Go Nige !!!!
Saxondale Posted 28 November 2011 Posted 28 November 2011 Not only does Farage speaks sense, but he managed to walk away relatively unscathed from a nasty light aircraft crash (I think this was last General Election day). Is there any end to his powers?
MC Prussian Posted 28 November 2011 Posted 28 November 2011 In all fairness they've put a man who's actually qualified (an economist) in charge to deal with the mess that a corrupt politician who won a popularity contest got them into. However undemocratic that maybe its far more democratic than Italy has been under Berlusconi. You are spot on. BUT... the new boy in town has a history... as a Goldman Sachs employee (just like the new Greek president). Coincidence?
MC Prussian Posted 28 November 2011 Posted 28 November 2011 I seem to remember a few years ago I was on a Greek island when the World Cup was on and Germany was knocked out. The bar I was in went beserk. The locals were supporting the opposition everytime Germany played. All boils down to some Nazis doing some pretty rough sh*t during WWII - including occupying Greek islands alongside fascist Italy under Mussolini. So they do have a point.
Wherethefoxhat? Posted 28 November 2011 Author Posted 28 November 2011 Farage is a bellend. He speaks highly of you too..........in an infinate moment i swear !

Houdini Logic Posted 28 November 2011 Posted 28 November 2011 He speaks highly of you too..........in an infinate moment i swear ! I'll give him credit, he could probably spell infinite to be fair...
Houdini Logic Posted 28 November 2011 Posted 28 November 2011 Is there any end to his powers? Yes. Politics.
Wherethefoxhat? Posted 28 November 2011 Author Posted 28 November 2011 I'll give him credit, he could probably spell infinite to be fair... [/quote Probably .........unlike me obviously ...........but who gives a brassun about a 7 piece South Korean boy band anyway ???
Wherethefoxhat? Posted 28 November 2011 Author Posted 28 November 2011 Yes. Politics. At least he tells it how it is ! Whats exactly wrong with that ?
Houdini Logic Posted 28 November 2011 Posted 28 November 2011 At least he tells it how it is ! Whats exactly wrong with that ? I have no actual issue with what he's saying here (though I tend to find people who resort to fire breathing often lack the eloquence and capacity to put together a good debate), but generally the man is slimy and archetypally right wing

l444ry Posted 28 November 2011 Posted 28 November 2011 Something rather hypocritical about a man shouting "undemocratic" from the rooftop while at the same time supporting an unelected Monarchy and House of Lords.
Houdini Logic Posted 28 November 2011 Posted 28 November 2011 Doesn't make you a bad person. Agreed, just a bellend.
21st Century Fox Posted 28 November 2011 Posted 28 November 2011 Any shred of "telling it how it is" went out the window when he invoked the war to make his point about a German dominated Europe, I was under the impression it was a Fascist dominated Europe that we paid in blood to stop.
MC Prussian Posted 28 November 2011 Posted 28 November 2011 Coming back to Farage, it's just a very trendy thing to slag off Germany right now (one of the biggest lenders of money and probably the biggest economic engine in the whole European Union) - and he knows best as when to come up with the perfect timing. In times of crisis, the ones who always knew best are the first ones to take stage.
