So Farage has recruited Donald Trump, a foreign power to push Farage's own election message and to discredit the opposition and discredit our own Government's Brexit position.
As a American political analyst said on the radio this morning, rule 101 of state leadership is not getting involved in foreign election meddling.
Farage and Trump seem very happy to do so but what Farage is complicit in is that he himself is the one being recruited by Trump as a puppet to facilitate Trump to push agenda for our country.
Has there ever been a so blatant General Election meddling by a foreign power that's facilitated by an active UK political party.
I know people will bleat on about Obama during the referendum which was also wrong but this meddling is directed at the direct governance of our countries policies.

And our membership of the EU has no influence on the governance of the UK's policies? |

"Get lost Trump, Putin or Otherwise. Hands off our Democracy!"
But late for that. Brexit was largely sponsored by the States and Russia.
As we keep being reminded. We need to respect the result of the advisory referendum, where people based on lies sponsored by other countries, voted leave. And that democracy was a one time deal and should have been frozen the day after the referendum. |

The referendum could only have been non binding and advisory because parliament is sovereign but lets not mention that part. |

I could scarcely believe what I was hearing - the president of the USA so openly supporting one candidate to be British PM and trashing the other.
At least the Russians are more subtle in their meddling.

Farage and Johnson both seemingly stupid and desperate to gain power, as well as financial gains for some. Farage should be disqualified now, although tragically that may improve the potential for the other chancer to get a majority to do-over the citizens of the UK. It's sickening to see foreign influence being wielded this way, even if overt. |

It only matters if you're likely to be influenced by Donald Trump's opinion of the candidates.
In the UK, that's only going to be Tory/Brexit voters anyway.
I know he should be leaving well alone, but he's not going to have any impact on the result; unless he has enough influence to lower the Tory Party's number of MPs a bit.
IF - and it's big if - that happens, Boris will still be happy to kiss his arse; if he can shove Nigel out of the way. |

"Geta thunberg just did it in Canada, seems nobody cares less these days."
Greta Thunberg is not the head of state of one of the worlds most powerful countries, blatantly attempting to influence the election of another country. |

"Geta thunberg just did it in Canada, seems nobody cares less these days."
She's a 16-year-old campaigner.
He is the 73-year-old president of America..
One thing it does is tell you how much he cares about Britain.
Johnson or Farage, yes.
Corbyn, no.
A Britain lead by Corbyn certainly won't be sucking Trump's cock - Trump has just made sure of that. |

Uh, if you can find me a reputable source of Greta Thunberg. endorsing a particular candidate and warning of the danger of electing another, I would appreciate it,
Sounds a bit untrue, there's nothing in Canadian media, is it in your facebook news feed? Thanks. |

She was endorsing a political policy (you know like, I endorse one brexit policy over another) while a campaign was running, she visited several cities and gave numerous speeches.
If you can't find that I doubt you've looked

I know, but there's nothing now that I wouldn't put past Farage.
It has to be the lowest thing he has ever done in my view. |

Foreigners have to register as "third party" interests in the US and Canada if you want to do political discourse during an election campaign. |

No Ive watched several of her speeches in Canada from completely independent viewers.
She quite clearly talks all the way though them about climate change policy in Canada, slightly more subtle than trumpy but the message was clear, don't vote for anybody who doesn't agree with me.
Now that's fine if she was Canadian but she ain't and foreigners need to register to do political discourse during campaigns.
So I really don't give a shit what the news told you, your wrong and I'm right.
Ps you can look up her speeches on YouTube

Absolutely. This is a foreign head of state supporting one candidate.
I've noticed that Trump's normal cheerleaders are having some quiet time |

So let me get this right. You're citing youtube videos making a claim about teenage environmental campaigner that isn't made by any reputable news source as a rebuttal to Donald Trumps endorsement of Farage. Is that all you got? |

"I hear Farage isn't standing in any constituency this time,,, "
Because he knows his position is week in his own area and does not want the potential embarrassment of losing

The only thing that's a one off is that kind of thinking about a referendum. |

Farage has totally shit out though but I suppose he's finally got it through his head that while he's brilliant at whipping up division and hatred, thankfully he knows he's unable to sway enough people to his bile in one constituency to get elected. |
