Reform candidate bills Farage £8,500 after being ousted from Clacton seat

Exclusive: Tony Mack claims party leader ‘cannot keep promises’ and went back on pledge to pay back costs

I can't believe Farage would stiff a loyal supporter and party member like this

Do you need us to chip in for the milkshake?

Just leave some chips nearby and let Farmerbarleymow's friends do the rest.

“I fear for the future of Reform unless it is democratised,” he said, in reference to the unusual structure of the party, which is registered as a company that is ultimately controlled by Farage rather than members.

“I also fear for the future of a movement like that when it is led by a man who cannot keep his promises. Where does that leave his constituents, or supporters who have invested their faith in Reform to deliver the kind of change that is needed.”

who could have seen that coming?

yeh, just motivated by personal grievance

Sources in Reform UK said Mack was motivated by personal grievance. They said that he had publicly backed Farage after the Reform UK leader became the candidate and originally signed his nomination papers

obviously not the sort of person a respectable political party would ever consider as a candi... oh wait

what is more worrying ias that this Tony Mack character self identifies as a psychotherapist ( an unenclosed title) and a charity worker ... Should Reform Uk ltd functionaries have access to vulnerable people ?

They have to have access to them. It's how they get their funding.

What I mean is most people don't have contact with their MP

Returning again to this; I regularly get emails from the likes of CAAT, Amnesty, HRW and the like which tell me to press a button to send a standard letter to my MP. Does this count?

Yes. Most people don't get those. Or if they do, they don't click send.

I didn't say you were most people, I said the opposite. I also didn't say it was not a good use of time to engage with MPs, sometimes it can be very useful. I probably spend more time with MPs and have more time for them than most people on this thread, albeit in another country and I both think it's useful to contact them and not many people do and often it's the same people again and again who contact them.

Also those bulk emails are often a waste of time better to get a small group of constituents together to meet and talk the MP through the issue from their perspective.

Sometimes they work though and there is not an exact science.

The majority (53%) shareholder in Reform UK Party Limited, Nigel Farage interviewed on 6 August 2024 regarding his role in the the ongoing white supremacist rioting in a number of English towns and cities:

That interview is 20 minutes long, I would rather poke my eyes in with a blank stick than listen to that, TBH.

However, The Poke has an interesting piece on it.

Nigel Farage’s excuse for spreading misinformation was that he heard it from that bastion of reliability – Andrew Tate​

TS: You said, and I’m quoting here, “Some reports suggest that he” (the man charged) was known to the security services. Which reports?


NF: There were some stories online from some very prominent folks with big followings – Andrew Tate, etc, suggesting the man had crossed the English Channel in a boat in October 2023.
TS: But you amplified that, because you said “Some reports suggest …”.
NF: I asked a very simple question – was this person known or not.
TS: Those reports were from a fake news website, amplified by Russian State TV, and – as you mentioned – Andrew Tate. Which ones were you looking at?
NF: There were thousands of fake reports …
TS: And you cited them …
NF: All of which puts the emphasis on the questions being answered, which they weren’t.
TS: So, did you accidentally fall for that misinformation …
NF: No, I didn’t believe any of it.
TS: Or did you know it was wrong from the get-go?

NF: I hadn’t got a clue.

tl;dr: Nigel Farage spread information which he apparently didn’t believe, after hearing it from Andrew Tate and others.

There’s no part of that which seems like a responsible thing for anyone to do – let alone a sitting MP.

The reactions were very much as you’d expect.

There's some amusing replies on twitter on that page.

Oh, The Poke has another interesting piece on it.

Nigel Farage was asked if he’s worried about the police knocking on his door and he really doesn’t like it up him​

‘My client didn’t say the police lied, your honour, he just said they weren’t telling the truth.’

He's not at all happy!



And again, amusing replies on twitter -

Nigel Farage has been back on his old employer LBC to clarify that he absolutely, definitely, 100% was nothing to do with the far-right riots that have consumed towns and cities up and down the country in the wake of the Southport stabbings. Of course he wasn’t! In an interview which really is...

Why the fuck is Farage now in Hong Kong? Clacton cultural exchange or something?

Why the fuck is Farage now in Hong Kong? Clacton cultural exchange or something?

According to this:

UK riots: MP Nigel Farage travelled to Hong Kong as unrest spread - Hong Kong Free Press

“This was an important family visit, taken whilst UK Parliament is in recess, he is now back in the UK,” a spokesperson for Farage confirmed to HKFP via Whatsapp on Tuesday. (...)

According to his LinkedIn page, Farage’s son is based in Hong Kong as a director at consultancy Ernst & Young.(...)

Despite apparently being in Hong Kong, Farage called for parliament to be recalled.

With the riots kicking off, Tommy Robinson pisses off to Turkey and Farage to HK. Not drawing a parallel between the 2 but a bit of a coincidence?

Andrew Tate slams Nigel Farage for saying the UK riots are his fault

Andrew Tate has slammed Nigel Farage and has given him "advice" after the Reform UK leader said Tate was to blame for spreading misinformation about the Southport attacks and the riots it has sparked across the UK.Axel Rudakubana, who turns 18 on August 7 and was living in the village of Banks...

www.indy100.com

they've fallen out

After Farage said he wasn't aware that what was shared online by the likes of Tate was false, Tate has hit back with a five-minute video posted on X / Twitter.

"I'm gravely concerned by Nigel Farage throwing me under the bus when he speaks to the legacy media," he said.

"It shows Nigel will bend to pressure and if he is afraid to stand up to a propagandist, how can he truly stand up for the people of the country, like he's saying he will, if he will bend to the wills of a propagandist because he's afraid of negative media?

"He threw me under the bus saying the riots are my fault because I put out a video.

"Calling me names is not going to put you on their 'good list' - so what are you doing? Why are you trying to appease the alligator and the crocodile?"

 

[krtek a houby]

Farage, Tate, SYL and all the rest... let them turn on each other and live in fear like the targets of their hatred and disinformation.

Run away, you wankers, run.

News Thump's take on the 'Farage Riots.'

Stop calling them the ‘Farage Riots’, demands man behind the Farage Riots

Nigel Farage has demanded people stop referring to nationwide anti-immigrant far-right disturbances as the Farage Riots, simply because he loudly encouraged the sentiment behind them all.

newsthump.com

Nigel Farage has demanded people stop referring to nationwide anti-immigrant far-right disturbances as the Farage Riots, insisting it is an unfair characterisation based on nothing more than him loudly encouraging the sentiment behind them all.

Just days after helping spread anti-immigrant misinformation that sparked the first riot in Southport, Farage has insisted people stop blaming him for people acting violently after listening to his words and agreeing wholeheartedly with them.

Farage told reporters, “Just because I’ve spent twenty years demonising immigrants, just because I’ve filmed small boats and suggested the people arriving in them are criminals, just because I’ve suggested the nation is being invaded, doesn’t mean I am in any way responsible for people violently reacting to small boats full of criminals invading us.

“I’m just asking questions. And when those questions – such as ‘Why are we letting the country be invaded by criminal immigrants?’ – result in violence, that is not my fault. At all.

“It is irresponsible to refer to these events as the Farage Riots because words can have a real-world impact, and you saying that about me might lead people to think that I am a danger to the public and to take matters into their own hands, for which you would rightly be held responsible.

I suspect most of us will now be referring to them as "The Farage Riots"
BTW, is this why he skipped the country. Bloody MP's, you cant trust any of them.
Will we ever get some MP's with integrity etc.
