Leader of the Brexit Party
POPULARITY

Changing political tides across the globe are inextricably linked to the use of social media and internet based messaging. But something as simple as a photo of your lunch can't be part of the same spin... Right?Dr Sara Garcia Santa Maria from the University of Bristol joins us to discuss her research into diet, culture and social media among populist politicians.Read the original article: https://doi.org/10.51698/tripodos.2020.49p129-149Posing with the People: Food Porn and the Far-Right in a Post-Truth Era.

JonGaunt #UKImmigrationCrisis #MigrantCrisisUK #Starmer #Macron #NigelFarage Keir Starmer has signed a surrender deal with France and President Macron. This "one in, one out" migrant deal will do nothing to stop illegal crossings of the Channel by small boats. The UK is in a border crisis. We don't need weak deals—we need to declare a national emergency, close our borders, and take serious action. As Nigel Farage, leader of Reform UK, demands—put the troops on the beaches of Dover, deploy the Navy in the Channel, and stop the migrant taxi service! We need tough deterrents like Rwanda deportations. End the UK's image as a “migrant El Dorado” by closing the migrant hotels, speeding up deportations, and leaving the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) immediately. It's time to act like a sovereign nation again. Do you agree with Jon Gaunt?

Fragmentation special! It's all kicking off on the right and the left. Are our panic-stricken political classes talking Britain into a Farage premiership just by making it sound inevitable? And could Zarah Sultana's (possibly premature) launch of a new party of the anti-war left turn into a genuine threat to Labour? We're calling it CorbTana. It's going to catch on. Really.

Nick Cohen and commentator Nick Tyrone discuss the rise of the radicalised right in the UK and ask why the Conservatives won't fight against the extremists in their midst and party. Instead, some Tories are have buckled to the siren voices of intolerance and extremism. They are dragging their party further to the extremes by trying to outflank Nigel Farage & Reform on the right.Right wing extremism becomes ever more extremeNick Tyrone says, "We've come so far that Farage is starting to look relatively moderate compared to some of the stuff that's even happening within the conservative party now. That's how scary things have become."Nick adds, "I have my doubts that however much money you threw at it, that a sort of a party that was sort of Rupert Lowe shaped like, was sort of that right wing could actually succeed to a huge degree in Britain. ... you could do it in a boiling frog sort of a way. I think you could get a, a government elected that on a much more moderate platform that, so that kept turning up the dial and got more and more right wing and, and if that government was producing, you know, economic growth and was eliminating some of the bigger problems they got the NHS working, they would probably be given leeway to do some fairly terrible right wing stuff."Conservatives wont defend conservatism - inevitability of Jenrick leadershipNick says, "Robert Jenrick is going to be the conservative leader unless Jenrick jumps to reform, which I don't think he will, but I can't rule that out. Yeah, it's gonna be Jenrick. And again, it's that sort of thing. Well, what do the moderates do? And the answer seems to be not very much. And just sort of go along and hope somewhere along the line everything works out. I think Jenrick could take them further to the right than reform. and what happens when that happens? I don't know. I mean, I can say, well, I don't think that'll work."Possible malevolent force could take over the UKNick Tyrone says, "I can't really emphasise enough every time I come on how completely all over the place the Tories are and what a mess they are. So in the end it's totally possible that some real malevolent force could take hold in British politics."Read all about it!Nick Tyrone is an author, activist, policy advisor and commentator and keen observer of the Tory party whose Substack column as Neoliberal Centrist Dad - nick.tyrone.substack.com - is a must read for those of us desperate for the return of sanity to our national political discourse.Nick Cohen's @NickCohen4 latest Substack column Writing from London on politics and culture from the UK and beyond.

C'est l'un des personnages les plus singuliers de la politique britannique : Nigel Farage, 61 ans, ancien banquier et ex-député européen. Tout à droite de l'échiquier politique, il a largement œuvré en faveur du Brexit, puis a pris une pause, pour animer des émissions de radio et participer à des télé-réalités. Mais depuis 2024, il a réussi à se faire élire député, pour le parti nationaliste Reform, sur un programme en large partie tourné sur l'immigration. Un an après les législatives qui l'ont vu entrer au Parlement, reportage à Clacton-on-Sea, là où Nigel Farage s'est fait parachuter. De notre envoyée spéciale de retour de Clacton-on-Sea, Les 25 canards, des alpagas, neuf cochons gambadent dans les champs de la « ferme de Sandy », au nord de Clacton, un espace de zoothérapie pour enfants. L'année dernière, la ferme a failli fermer « C'était très dur. Avant que Nigel Farage ne nous rende visite, nous avions plus de 35 000 euros de dettes. Il a lancé une cagnotte et en un jour, il a récolté près de 22 000 euros pour nous. » Gary et Sandy, les fondateurs : « C'est difficile de savoir vers qui se tourner, et vous ne parvenez jamais jusqu'aux décideurs… à part Farage. » Le couple, qui travaille sept jours sur sept, n'avait jamais voté jusqu'alors : « Je n'avais pas une bonne opinion de lui, jusqu'à ce que je le rencontre. Il m'a fait changer d'avis en nous rendant visite. Il a certaines idées qui ne me plaisent pas, mais tout ça, ce n'est que de la politique. En 40 ans, je n'ai jamais voté, mais il a eu ma voix. » Un « personnage Marmite » Nigel Farage, c'est un « personnage Marmite », du nom de cette pâte de légumes fermentés : on adore ou on déteste. Début 2024, Farage a lancé sa campagne devant le symbole de Clacton, une ville balnéaire délaissée des touristes : le casino sur la jetée. Nigel Brown, directeur de la communication : « Farage, comme Donald Trump, est très bon pour dire aux gens ce qu'ils veulent entendre. À nous, il nous a dit : " je suis une célébrité, n'hésitez pas à m'exploiter ", et il a fait de la publicité à la jetée. Tout ce qu'il nous a promis, il l'a fait : maintenant, l'avenir nous dira si cela porte ses fruits. » Les opposants de Nigel Farage, eux, critiquent ses emplois secondaires, ses voyages à l'étranger et ses positions : eurosceptiques, anti-immigration, anti-islam. Le communicant souligne le paradoxe Farage : « Je n'aime pas ses méthodes, et je pense qu'il désinhibe certains discours problématiques. Mais il bouscule l'ordre établi. » Après un an au pouvoir, les Travaillistes n'ont pas encore réussi à relancer l'économie ni les services publics, alors Reform UK, le parti de Farage mise sur le dégagisme. À Clacton, Dan Casey, élu local de gauche, tente de dissuader les électeurs : « On l'a bien vu quand il était élu au Parlement européen : c'était un véritable clown. Il ne porte aucun intérêt aux gens d'ici. » Mais Nigel Farage semble s'être fixé un objectif : Downing Street, comme un autre « personnage marmite » avant lui, un certain Boris Johnson.

For days the headlines have been consumed by what Bob Vylan said at Glastonbury. Jemma and Marina discuss. But, before they disseminate all the Glasto fallout and furore, they enjoy some British language discussion. Find out how to end a call you've had enough of and how to be polite while conveying disapproval. Then, find out why Farage has made such an outlandish claim, it's compelled the Albanian Prime Minister to get stuck in. There follow some amazing clips in this episode as various people try to draw the focus of the media storm back to the fact that a ceasefire has been broken, that children are being murdered every day and that it's all on camera. It poses the question, what's a worse crime - incitement to violence or actual violence? And what are The Daily Mail thinking when they misquote on the front page?It's a rollercoaster of an episode and takes in the current chaos within the Labour party as the welfare bill causes a rebellion and some painfully sad clips as the situation in Palestine worsens. Rod Stewart offers some light relief as does the 'under rated' section.

Nick Cohen and historian James Hawes discuss wide range of political topics, focusing primarily on British politics, Brexit, and the rise of right-wing populism. Discussions included the historical context and current state of the Conservative Party, the challenges faced by Labour and the SNP, and the potential long-term implications of demographic changes on political landscapes. James Hawes argues that only liberal populists can counter the threat posed by Nigel Farage and Reform.Brexit's Long-Term Consequences and FailuresJames and Nick discusses the long-term implications and failures of Brexit, highlighting how Farage and other Brexit advocates had been promoting the idea for decades. Both criticise the lack of accountability and the continued influence of Brexit supporters despite the project's evident failures. James expressed optimism for a pro-remain populist leader to challenge Brexit advocates directly, rather than relying on complex economic arguments. He also shared a conversation with a top UK insider predicting the UK's collapse by 2029 due to Keir Starmer's inability to address the mess left by the Tories & BrexitThe Tory Party pickleJames & Nick discuss the historical and current dire state of the Conservative Party, highlighting its long history of populism and sectarianism. They argue that the party's true nature is being revealed through its alignment with Farage and its anti-migrant stance, which James compares to 19th-century Tory behaviour.Farage's Rise and threat to the UKThe discussion focuses on British politics, particularly Farage's rise and the potential for a shift towards far-right governance. James argues that Farage success in England will re-energise the SNP & inevitably speed up the UK's break-up. Both express concern about the working-class appeal of Farage's populism and discuss the perception of left-wing politicians as communists by some conservatives.Demographic Shifts and Political ImplicationsThe discussion focused on demographic challenges and political implications, with Nick and James exploring how an aging population and ironically more financially secure voters are more likely to vote for Farage and his brand of nut-job populist extremism, while younger generations face difficulties accessing housing and other opportunities. James argues that a more liberal -leftist brand of populism - with policies such as I.D. cards and German-like tests for trades people - might help counter the poison and certain chaos of Farageism.Read all about it!James Hawes @jameshawes2 is a historian and author of a novel and books such as including The Shortest History of Germany and The Shortest History on EnglandNick Cohen's @NichCohen4 latest Substack column Writing from London on politics and culture from the UK and beyond.

New data shows Nigel Farage and the Reform Party would win more seats than Labour and the Conservatives in the next general election. Political analysts have revealed that Farage and Reform would win 278 seats if a general election were to take place tomorrow - the most of any party. UK correspondent Enda Brady says the next election is four years away - but Prime Minister Starmer's team should be taking this data into account going forward.

Had a late guest drop out, which gave me the chance to get stuck into some fairly big news stories which have broke since last week.

Chris Patten has done it all. Conservative cabinet minister under Thatcher and Major, our last Governor of British Hong Kong, then back home overseeing policing reform in Northern Ireland, EU Commissioner in Brussels, Chairman of the BBC, Chancellor of Oxford University, you name it, Patten has more chance than anybody of having done it. But his sort of Tory Party is one which increasingly feels consigned to history. What does it mean for Britain's future if there are no successors to the sort of politics he embodied? Now in his 80th year, Lewis went to Patten's salubrious Barnes home, to discuss a remarkable career in national and international politics. He talks the future of China, the Iran conflict, Starmer's handling of Trump and how Farage is Britain's biggest pub bore.The News Agents is brought to you by HSBC UK - https://www.hsbc.co.uk/

Take the survey now: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1iHRZvOly_Q7aprlQBF7n38y0EjgvnHw2OdYII8yQElc/edit?ts=670d0111 Nigel Farage joins Rob again for an honest conversation about Britain's future. Farage discusses his work with Reform UK party chairman Zia Yusuf, building structure and organisation for the years ahead. He warns that indebtedness is at an all time high and predicts continued economic decline under current leadership. From the entrepreneur exodus and benefit reforms to his three near-death experiences and views on political realignment, Farage shares his views as one of the UK’s most outspoken and controversial political figures. Nigel Farage REVEALS: Why the UK is heading for another financial crash That a dramatic political realignment is happening The ways the Reform Party would help fix the UK The mass millionaire exodus Why the current system for the self employed doesn’t work Why the tax system is over complicated and needs reform The ways he would reform the UK benefits system BEST MOMENTS "Well, indebtedness now is way bigger than it was in 2008 and I do think at some point in time there comes a bit of a reckoning for Western economies." "Musk comes into Twitter, sacks 80% of the staff, and it makes no difference. So the idea is that Musk comes in and starts cutting up the deep state. That's gonna be the template for what we need." "I've nearly died three times. I've had three very serious brushes with that. So when you've had all these brushes, I just think some mornings you are so blooming lucky." "The UK tax code is now 21,000 pages long. The most complex tax system in the world."

Welcome to another episode of Richardson's Rubicon, where we dive into the absurd, tackle the unpredictable, and poke fun at the political circus! This time around, I'm kicking off with the sport you never knew existed - underwater rugby. Flippers and salty balls! But that's not all! We'll swim out of the pool and into the political kiddie pool where Nigel Farage is making waves by not showing up - classic Farage. And as if politics couldn't get crazier, we've got Elon Musk throwing Twitter grenades at his former bestie Donald Trump. There's more drama than a soap opera, and we're here for every juicy detail.To top it all off, we'll take a peek into our listener confessions - more accurately, we don't for good reason - and dissect the nerve-wracking Hamilton by-election results that should have the SNP breaking into a cold sweat, if they know what's good for them.More info: https://richardsonsrubicon.com/rugby-goals-and-political-holes/
It's Farage's big test in Scotland. For years it was a political dead-end for Reform party leader - heckled in Edinburgh, chased from restaurants in Aberdeen, and repeatedly rejected at the ballot box.But in today's Holyrood by-election in Hamilton, Larkhall & Stonehouse, Reform UK is mounting a serious challenge. With Farage back in charge and his candidate Ross Lambie gaining ground in an SNP stronghold, could this be the moment his party makes a breakthrough north of the border?And while the Tories remain locked in internal warfare, we speak to Reform's most senior council leader, Linden Kemkaran, on how the party plans to cut spending with their own version of Elon Musk's DOGE and why she wants to end taxpayer-funded English lessons for migrants.Producer: Georgia Coan and Lilian FawcettSenior Producer: John CadiganPlanning Editor: Venetia RaineyExecutive Producer: Louisa WellsSocial Media Producer: James SimmonsVideo Editor: Will WaltersStudio Operator: Meghan SearleWith assistance from Andy Mackenzie and Ryan Gudge Hosted on Acast.

It's all happening. That said, potholes might not be getting fixed, loft extensions might not be getting signed off and bins might not be getting collected - those things may or may not be happening, but Doge has been announced.Yes, this episode goes into what is happening in various Reform led councils. Firstly, having decided that Musk's Doge has gone 'so well' in the States (spoiler alert, it hasn't, it's failed miserably', Farage has announced the same approach over here. Though they should really be using a different acronym. After all, how can you have a Department of Governmental Efficiency in action when they're not actually in government? Hmm. Anyway, they want to slash millions, billions even, the numbers quoted are huge, although when Lewis Goodall challenges Reform Chairman, Zia Yusef, on his wild figures, Yusef cites an unnamed think tank as his source. Seems reasonable. Pensions will go - not Farage's EU one to be clear, that's staying, obvs - meetings will be reduced and apparently a hit squad of talented experts will be instigating all of this, for free. Meanwhile, the Tories are having a mare. Jenrick is busy doing the media rounds but Marina has found some pretty incredible receipts. And Truss is in Hungary, wanging on about free speech and how she's had to go to Budapest to say what she wants. Each to their own. Some great underrated tweets and clips follow, plus the ladies explore the somewhat biased coverage of the man arrested for driving into the crowds of football fans in Liverpool. he lives in a cul de sac and that, apparently, means a lot.

Stay out of wombs Nigel! Reform UK leader Nigel Farage wants us to have more babies - which for new mum Coco feels like being bamboozled into being rightwing. Not only this, Farage is even coming for abortion - saying it's “utterly ludicrous” to allow abortion up to 24-weeks. Keep your wits about you! From leaked memos and inner-circle beef to U-turns and rumoured U-turns - Keir Starmer is feeling the pressure. Nish and Coco dive into the Westminster bubble to find out why the Government has become a leaky ship with Politico reporter Bethany Dawson. Half a decade on from the 2020 Black Lives Matter protests that shook the world, only one third of the recommendations of major reports to tackle endemic racism in the UK has actually been implemented and equality initiatives are facing a rightwing backlash on both sides of the Atlantic. So, is the UK backsliding on racial justice? Guardian community affairs correspondent and author Aamna Mohdin reflects on the personal and political legacy of the largest anti-racism rallies in the UK since the abolition of slavery.

Dissatisfaction with the established political parties is driving a ‘tartan bounce' in Scotland for Nigel Farage's Reform UK. Far from being an English phenomenon, Reform is polling favourably with Scottish voters. There will be a by-election next week for the Scottish Parliament seat of Hamilton, in what will be Reform's first big test inside the politics of devolved government.For councillor Thomas Kerr, who defected from the Scottish Conservatives to Reform earlier this year, Reform's appeal in Scotland is no surprise. He joins Lucy Dunn to explain why he thinks the ‘sky is the limit' for Reform, why Farage is an asset to the party in Scotland and to explain Reform's current views around devolution powers.Produced by Patrick Gibbons.

So would Reform UK's policies crash the economy? Hugo Rifkind unpacks the politics of the day with Manveen Rana and Zoe Strimpel. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Is Reform UK's growing appeal a product of Farage's populism, or Labour's failure to articulate a gripping national story? What's behind Trump's South African ‘white genocide' claim?
