Look at the foreign guy pulling the ladder up

[@Zenduri]

I was born and raised in one of the roughest areas of Boston and i left for Uni as soon as i could rather than hang around in the sh*thole town. The locals all blame "the foreigners" for all the towns ill's. The true issue is that there's no jobs in the town aside from land work (as the area is heavily agricultural), factory work (linked to the land work) and retail and these are all relatively low paying jobs. The locals are either working and cant make ends meet or on benefits or are part of the large OAP populus in the area. With the pay and job opportunities in the area being so low, the low paid jobs have been filled by eastern Europeans who moved en masse to the area and in turn what was an aging, elderly population that’s stuck in its ways was transformed into a very varied populus that has shops and services that cater to the eastern European population. The xenophobic/racist element of the town then blames "the foreigners" for the towns decline as a convenient scape goat. The Tories have been in power for decades in this area, the money has been drained out the town on "mates deals" with Tory MP's and the town has seen no real development or injection of cash for the 30 odd years I’ve been alive. The services, dental, GP, social, care, NHS are all over worked and under funded and the town keeps growing as housing is fairly cheap compared to most parts of the country. I'm ashamed to be from Boston and my go to line when talking about it will always be " the best thing they could do the town is burn it all down and plough it back into the land "

[@katiejohnson6006]

I agree with everything you said apart from the cheap rents. There was a period of time when Boston had some of the highest rents in the East Midlands but some of the lowest wages. I'm still in the area and wish people would stop voting Tory as they take us for granted but none of the other parties can even be bothered to campaign here so they don't help their cause.

[@stephenconway2468]

​@@JackGreen-gh6sw You still don't accept reality. Experts warned us that any Brexit would be a permanent cost to the economy and the harder it was the greater the cost. Boris chose a particularly hard version and that cost us 4% of GDP growth as was expected. After the 2016 vote, the Bank of England had to devalue the currency to avoid recession. In doing so they imported inflation. This is a know economic consequence (basic economics). That is why we suffered more as the global inflation hit. Mainland Europe even when directly impacted by Russian gas supplies, did better at shielding their people. Brexit removed the right to return to France the small boat people. That is a legal right we gave up due to Brexit. The act of Brexit meant fewer EU citizens wanted to come here. The problem was and is, we need migrants. So we got those from nations further away. The consequence of which is they will stay here. EU citizens tend to be here a few years and then go home. Those from elsewhere tend to stay. Then we have sovereignty. We have the right to make laws (we always did) but we are constrained by trade practises made by our powerful neighbour the EEA. We have to follow them. Witness our attempts at having our own standards.....now we just accept the C E standard and have no voice in how they are set. This is Brexit and it makes no difference as to whoever deployed it. Yes the Tories are incompetent as Boris pushed out the better ones. However, the reality of it is that Brexit was always going to look like this. The experts warned us.

[@SJG-nr8uj]

@@gordonstrong5232 I report on the EU's own treaties, documents and declarations. You really should know what's in them, eight years after 16 million of you voted for it. 1. THE EU’s FEDERAL INTENTIONS Lisbon Treaty Article 3.4: “The Union shall establish an ECONOMIC and monetary UNION whose currency is the euro.” EU Five Presidents’ Report, 2015: “Progress MUST HAPPEN on four fronts: first, towards a genuine ECONOMIC UNION that ensures each economy has the structural features to prosper within the Monetary Union. Second, towards a FINANCIAL UNION that guarantees the integrity of our currency across the Monetary Union and increases risk-sharing with the private sector. This means completing the Banking Union and accelerating the Capital Markets Completing Europe’s Economic and Monetary Union. Third, towards a FISCAL UNION that delivers both fiscal sustainability and fiscal stabilisation. And finally, towards a POLITICAL UNION that provides the foundation for all of the above through genuine democratic accountability, legitimacy and institutional strengthening.” Angela Merkel’s immediate response to the referendum result, 24th June 2016: “Today is a watershed moment for Europe, and it is a watershed moment for the EUROPEAN UNIFICATION PROCESS. There is no doubt that this is a blow to Europe, and to the EUROPEAN UNIFICATION PROCESS.” EU Rome Declaration, 25th March 2017: “Working towards COMPLETING the ECONOMIC and monetary UNION” (with a preferred deadline for completion of 2027). ECB’s ‘Fiscal Implications of the EU Recovery Package’ 2020. “The way that the EU has responded to the crisis also has implications for the future design and implementation of the EUROPEAN GOVERNANCE FRAMEWORK. First, while expansionary fiscal policy is necessary to sustain the recovery, going forward it will be important for the fiscal rules to effectively support the reduction of high government debt in good economic times. Second, NGEU constitutes a new and innovative element of the EUROPEAN FISCAL FRAMEWORK. It will result in the issuance of sizeable supranational debt over the coming years, and its establishment has signalled a political readiness to design a common fiscal tool when the need arises. This innovation, while a one-off, could also imply lessons for ECONOMIC and Monetary UNION, which still lacks a PERMANENT FISCAL CAPACITY AT SUPRANATIONAL LEVEL for macroeconomic stabilisation in deep crises. The review of the ECONOMIC GOVERNANCE FRAMEWORK, which was launched by the Commission in February 2020 and postponed because of the pandemic, provides a GOOD OPPORTUNITY TO INCORPORATE THESE IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS.” (NGEU stands for “Next Generation European Union”). From the EU’s own website: “Once the economic and financial crisis (of 2008/9) was overcome, the EU established a process aimed at reinforcing the architecture of EMU (ECONOMIC and monetary UNION). The process is based on the Five Presidents’ Report on Completing Europe’s Economic and Monetary Union of 2015, which focused on four main issues: • A genuine ECONOMIC UNION; • A FINANCIAL UNION; • A FISCAL UNION; • A POLITICAL UNION. These four unions are STRICTLY INTER-RELATED and would develop in parallel. The report was followed by a series of communications, proposals and measures, and the discussion is still ongoing.” In 2022 all member states reaffirmed their commitment to economic union, as part of Lisbon Treaty Article 3. From the EU’s website (dated 29/4/24): “Today the Council adopted three pieces of legislation that will reform the EU’s ECONOMIC AND FISCAL GOVERNANCE FRAMEWORK. ‘The main objective of the reform is to ensure sound and sustainable public finances, while promoting sustainable and inclusive growth in all member states through reforms and investment. The new legislation will significantly improve the existing framework and provide effective and applicable rules for all EU countries. They will safeguard balanced and sustainable public finances, increase the focus on structural reforms and investments to spur growth and job creation throughout the EU. The time is now for a swift implementation’: Vincent Van Peteghem, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Finance of Belgium.” 2. THE EU’S MILITARY INTENTIONS Lisbon Treaty Article 42.3: “Member states shall make civilian and MILITARY capabilities available to the Union for the implementation of the common security and defence policy, to contribute to the objectives DEFINED BY THE EUROPEAN COUNCIL.” The EU’s military headquarters is the Kortenberg Building in Brussels. The EU Global Strategy, 30th June 2016, issued exactly one week after the referendum, contains the right of the EU’s military “to act autonomously (of NATO) if and when necessary”. It will need this, because, as you should know, Lisbon Treaty Article 42 commits member states to the defence of a member under attack. So if Ukraine is still under attack when it joins the EU, it will be the EU which is at war with Russia, not NATO. The defence of Ukraine doesn’t trigger the NATO charter. On 19th February 2019 Federica Mogherini told an audience in Hamburg: “... all the way through the security spectrum, up to the military operations, because not so many know that the European Union has seventeen deployed missions and operations around the world. So, together, we are already a unique global security provider.” I checked this figure recently. It now stands at twenty-one. On 23rd April 2019 the European Council issued its Military Command and Control Structures document, outlining its military command structure over member states’ land, sea and air forces. The diagram contained within reappears on the Wikipedia page for the Kortenberg Building, above. In September 2021 Ursula Von der Leyen said this: “But what we need is the European Defence Union. In the last weeks there have been many discussions on expeditionary forces. On what type and how many we need: battlegroups or EU entry forces. This is no doubt part of the debate - and I believe it will be part of the solution. But the more fundamental issue is why this has not worked in the past. You can have the most advanced forces in the world - but if you are never prepared to use them - of what use are they?” Last year the EU led joint military exercises in Spain. This is taken from the EU’s CSDP website: “The two-part MILEX 23 exercise commenced on 18 September and concluded on 22 October. The first part of this intense period was a 3-week planning phase by the MPCC in Brussels. In part two, this culminated in the EU’s first ever live military exercise from 16 - 22 October in Rota Naval Base, Cadiz, Spain. During Part 2, an EU Battlegroup-sized force carried out the Operational Plan developed by the MPCC in Part 1. Overall, 19 Member States contributed to MILEX 23.” (CSDP = Common Security and Defence Policy. MPCC = Military Planning and Conduct Capability). 3. Reckless EU expansionism across Eastern Europe - widely known and reported on, including Albania (hotbed of gangsterism and corruption), Serbia and Montenegro (both traditional allies of Russia), Moldova (part of it coveted by Russia), Ukraine (currently at war with Russia), Turkey (instantly the largest, most populous and poorest country in the EU upon joining) and several others, all of which will bring nothing but a begging bowl to the EU’s table. Oh, except for Ukraine, because, as above, Lisbon Treaty Article 42 commits member states to the military aid of a member under attack. So if Ukraine is still at war upon its accession the EU will be at war with Russia. 4. Unfettered migration into Europe from North Africa and the Middle East (the free movement of people was a secret part of the Euro-Mediterranean Partnership, in effect since 2010, and signed between the EU and Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Egypt, Jordan, Israel, the Palestine Authority, Lebanon, Syria and Turkey). “Eurocrats do not consider (migration) to be a problem, but rather as a project”: Fabrice Leggeri, former Director of the European Border and Coastguard Agency (Frontex). All this has been going on while you’ve been asleep for the last fifteen years.

Why? Because you don't like his opinion? You are so sure that you are right that nobody else has the right to an opinion. That pal makes you a narcissist

Farage should be entitled to a platform, the problem is that he isn't held to account. I'm very much in favour of him showing his true colours, but there needs to be the opportunity to also challenge his claims.

[@jgmediting7770]

@@rokketron there’s plenty of interests denied a platform in our system. Most in the middle and everyone on the left of the political spectrum are denied. Farage is promoted precisely because he suits the interests of the elite at this inflection point. Free speech and such has nothing to do with it. Free speech is the enemy of the elite.

Oswald Mosley wrote about his vision for the political unification of Europe, entitled "Europe: Faith and Plan". The EU is working towards political unification right now. You're the Oswald Mosley supporter.

@@ddhh1270A proper Brexit to these people was to get all the colored people out and have England completely white. They truly believed this would happen. It’s so funny watching them now struggle at the situation they voted for whilst burying their heads in the sand and still blaming the “immigrants”. Immigration has been at the highest point ever in the Uk post Brexit.

He's a malicious carnival barker. He has no policies or work ethic. In particular, he has no policies that will have any constructive or positive impact on people's lives. He was an MEP for over 20 years. He claimed the UK fishing industry has been “gutted due to the EU” and only attended one of 42 EU fisheries committee meetings.

Just for info the local MP is Matt Warman (Con). He was born on 1 September 1981 in Enfield, London, and was educated at Haberdashers' Aske's Boys' School in Elstree, Hertfordshire. He then studied English at Durham University. Warman was opposed to Brexit prior to the 2016 referendum. However, his constituency voted with the highest proportion of any constituency in the UK to leave, with 75.6% of voters casting their vote to leave. Despite his previous opposition, after the referendum he was listed as a supporter of pro-Brexit lobby group Leave Means Leave

[@seancassidy674]

@@brucevair-turnbull8082 yeah, but there are two ways to approach representing a riding - having clear beliefs, policies, and principles and allowing voters to choose based on that criteria or being a weather vane that simply reacts to majority preferences - I suppose the latter isn't necessarily "wrong" in a representative democracy, but it certainly isn't leadership.

The European parliament is a talking shop that rubber stamps what the commission preposes. The commission is not elected and holds the true power as they can create the legislation. If it were truly democratic then the people you voted for should be able to create the laws not the head of state puppets.

Farage didn’t deceive these people, he didn’t need to. The vast majority of business, commerce, agricultural, industrial, social, political etc. etc. etc. leaders and experts made it quite clear that Brexit would be the disaster it has turned out to be, but that’s not what some people wanted to hear (project fear). All Farage had to do was hold up a mirror, so to speak. Well researched information and reasoned argument was easy to access for those who wanted to really inform themselves what the impact of Brexit would be, they didn’t even have to get off their arses to do it, but too many couldn’t be arsed to do anything like that, or even listen to anyone who didn’t pander to their prejudice. To quote a song “ .. a man hears what he wants to hear and disregards the rest”. Now they are blaming someone else for their own prejudiced decision, which seems to the standard reaction over the last 14 years or so. “Nothing to do with me guv’nor, it’s his/her fault I only put a mark on a piece of paper”.

And Farage is a Tory, he just knows that he can't pull the "man of the people" shtick in the Tories just now. Mad that anyone ever falls for it, but people do and he cashes in on being seen as an "outsider", when he's the definition of an elite
