Nigel Farage Destroys EU Group-Think: "There's A New Berlin Wall... And It's Called The Euro"
Submitted by Simon Black via Sovereign Man blog,
Standing before the European Parliament yesterday, it took Nigel Farage just four minutes to completely destroy every argument supporting the Eurozone.
A few years back when he spoke at one of our Sovereign Man events in Santiago, he anticipated everything that we’re seeing right now.
Today it’s not nearly as controversial to say that the Eurozone experiment has failed. Anyone aware of what’s happening in Greece should say the same. But very few people really understand why.
As Nigel explains in the video below, right from the start, the system was never intended to help the Greek people.
Greece entering the euro was great for Goldman Sachs. But terrible for Greeks. It chained the country to a system in which it didn’t belong.
And what about all the bailout money that’s been thrown at Greece in the time since?
None of it actually went to the Greek people. It went to bail out the French, German, and Italian banks who own Greek debt.
Sure, social welfare drags an economy underwater. But corporate welfare is what really drowns it.
Since the crisis, the country’s debt to GDP has gone from 100% to 180%. Tensions have skyrocketed, and the Greek people are suffering.
They are the ones that now have to bear the burden of a stagnant economy, capital controls, and inflation.
None of these measures have worked. And just watch as Nigel destroys this dangerous euro groupthink in four minutes.

Damn right Nigel ! Damn right!
Getting rid of debt-based currency must be the paramount priority of all of the peoples of the world. Once this is achieved, relative peace will naturally ensue.
All Greek Debt has been caused by Barroso’s and Juncker’s unpaid parking tickets. ;-)
Looney
AWESOME speach by Nigel, but he is always SPOT ON !
and that right there is why all the other psycho-sociopath evil bankster filth in that room surrounding Farage hate him so fucking much. He's been the only one with the balls to call those fuckers out all these years. I'm surprised he's still alive.
you did it. I was content reading all the comments, but you had to bring in the "banksters"
Nigel Farage is such a darling of the bankers that they made him a Fellow of the City of London
yes, he wants the UK to exit the EU. yes, meanwhile, the City of London did decide that this is not "in the best interests of British banking"
nevertheless, painting him as a critic of bankers is really a tad too much. he does criticize them, but only if they are Continental bankers, and central bankers to boot
try to ask him what he thinks about the EU Banker Bonus Cap, I'll take the popcorn to match that and will listen with a big grin on my face
nope. you won't hear him railing against British bankers, and you won't hear him railing against the Old Lady of Threadneedle Street, the Bank of England
only the EU and the EUR
Bravo, Nigel..., bravo.
for what? for, in his opposition to the EUR, being the near equivalent of a Canadian politician railing against the FED?
and what he is towards the EU has no equivalent
EU electoral rules allow his party to have plenty of seats in the EU Parliament, but frigging four million votes gave him one or two in Westminster, instead of over fifty for the SNP
Merkel’s Germany Dominates Entire Eurozone, EU Fracturing Beyond Repair
another myth from people obsessed with the Third Reich, and obsessed with trying to understand "who is the hegemon" in foreign lands
if there is such thing as someone or something "dominating" the eurozone or the EU, it would be the European People's Party
it gave us Merkel, Junker, but also Berlusconi, Sarkozy, etc. etc. and since Draghi was selected by Berlusconi and Sarkozy, it gave us also Draghi
Cameron, btw, took his British Torys out of the European People's Party. probably out of fear of... contamination
I don't understand why people in this board fell in love with Mr. Farage.
You should listen what the guy is up for, not only what he is up against. Yes, he is against the EU... and that's it. He said to Mr Tsipras "with a devalued currency... you will recover" (3:55). Devalued currency (!?) so that's the problem? There is no a productivity problem, there is no too much Greek State, All the problem is the Euro, nice... thanks for the advice Nigel. I would say the Euro is the only thing positive going on for Greek people right now, and Greeks SHOULD BE THANKFUL to the Germans for that.
Don't sweat to much Nigel anyway. Greeks are closer to the new Drachma than to the Euro, they will be blessed with a economic Valhalla... Zimbabwe-style though.
I'm with Ghordius in this one, Mr. Farage is just an England nationalist.
You're missing the point though. Nigel's comments are noteworthy because he is the only guy in the room suggesting an alternate, sensible, path for Greece. One can say whatever they like about how the problems in Greece began, and who ultimately bears fault and responsibility (hint, all the pigs at the trough, EU and Greek, are responsible). But the solution certainly is not more of the same. That helps Germans. It definitely does not help the Greeks.
Same spin as the TARP, QE, et al programs. If the pain would have been taken, the system allowed to clear itself of bad debt, and poorly run companies, households, and countries allowed to default, this entire mess would be long behind us. But we don't do that anymore cause it's, well, hard.
man crush continues.
OT: Have you guys seen this?

Smoking gun, worth the watch.
Business as usual in the great Northwest...
h/t for the link...GovCorp in action, with the fat policy enforcers ready to taze an inverstigative reporter for asking very relevant questions whilst attempting to excersise his right to record state legislators. Eyewatering evidence of the corruption in and of government. Corporofascism at the cutting edge...transparent, plain as day, in yer face...and this even WITHOUT TTP, TTIP and TiSA.
And: http://arstechnica.co.uk/tech-policy/2015/06/wikileaks-releases-secret-t...
Next chapter - "Nigel and the Nailgun".
don't be with Ghordius....
He's clearly not a dumb guy - but he's also got no idea what he's talking about.
" what about all the bailout money that’s been thrown at Greece in the time since?
None of it actually went to the Greek people. It went to bail out the French, German, and Italian banks who own Greek debt."
This money was loaned with the expectation Greece would see the error of their ways and turn themselves around.
When they refused, these countries were paid back before any more money was lost on Greek socialism.
Not ALL underdogs deserve our support. You can blame it on banks/govt, but the PEOPLE voted to keep the same "free stuff" system in place.
NO sympathy from me.
Farage is the only one with a lick of sense in the entire discussion, over there.
And he only got like 2% of the vote in the last elections.
Greeks, English, Americans...... get what you vote for.
You get what you vote for , no with Diebold you get what they give you .
... He's clearly not a dumb guy - but he's also got no idea what he's talking about.
Typical Euro jerk; must be working for the "common good"...
He might be but he has many excelent points in that video. Funny how the Scottish Nationalists got 1.5m votes in the General Election and got 50-odd seats, Nigels party got 3.5m votes and only got the one!
Sad the way democracy 'works' sometimes.
Yes he suggests a devalued currency for an independent Greece. The most important thing about that is an independent Greece would, ostensibly, make decisions for itself with its best interests in mind. That would be a huge improvement over the situation in the EU.
The same Nigel Farage who said the artic ice sheet was not melting...
Hey, Nigel, sit down before you fall down...
Its been growing over the last decade.
not nearly as much as the anarctic ice which is near all time highs....
Wrong - the sea ice extent is completely irrelevant - The thickness of the land ice in antartica is at all time lows and shrinking. Don't fall for propoganda, and if you can't do that, at least do a little research before you spread it.
Flakzuki!! where ya been bitch
check out the links on suspicious0bservers.
And usually with the daily video updates.
It 'tis, it 'tis.
Say what?! Can you provide a reliable data source to support this claim?! The NSDIC (National Snow & Ice Data Center) data I'm looking at sure seems to support a much smaller arctic ice cap trending over the last 35 years with June's measurement being the 3rd lowest June on record:
http://nsidc.org/arcticseaicenews/
Mr. Farage, in asserting the arctic ice cap grew year over year (2013, I believe), may have been correct factually, but one year does not make a trend; IMHO, he was wrong to have used that data point in his earlier speech.
That being said, I almost always enjoy listening to Nigel deliver a speech....if not just for kicking the hornets' nest a bit and providing some contrarian (and mostly truthful) opinions. This one about recommending Greece exit the Euro certainly is one of those.
Please. It is within std deviation and trending much higher than 2012. And how about the antarctic sea ice? It is ABOVE avg and std deviations AND is about to trend above 2014 record high. AGW is bullshit, move on.
This, like so many "news" stories has been framed completely out of context. Sea ice coverage in Antartica is independent of land ice (glaciers). Sea ice is a product of ocean currents, which are changing from the historical background. Land ice coverage is most certainly shrinking (the thickness of the glaciers most importantly). Furthermore, as the land ice sloughs in to the ocean it briefly bolsters sea ice coverage. This doesn't change the fact that the volume of ice in Antartica as a whole is trending down (and has been for more than a decade at least), which is the only real indicator to pay attention to.
Every time when different indicators show different things, "the only one that is worth paying attention to", is the one that shows what I want it to show. You say dont listen to propaganda that the ice is growing, but what I hear now is a lot of propaganda that it is melting. You brought this issue up in the first place, and you continue to aggressively argue for the "only one and true point". Not a word you say is credible. And I haven't even taken a stand, I don't wish to claim that you are neither wrong nor right, because its off-topic, but Jesus what you come with now is so propagandaish. Like the russian troll-army, but promoting man-made global warming.
Ignore it is or it isn't. If it really is caused by man then man has the ability to cause it to change. Ok.
Think.
Think hard.
Think really hard.
Ok stop. I can't stand it when you make that bizarrely contorted face.
Ask yourself a question. Which will better support life on this planet, a warmer and wetter climate or a colder and dryer climate?
Ok, back to the thinking part. Call me when you get the answer.
Who was that idiot that went down to Antartica to prove the ice was going and got the ship stuck in the expanding ice sheet , you cannot fix stupid, but if the fed gov't gave me a grant of 1 million USD to prove the sky was pink then it would look really pink to me .
I'll add Irish PM Enda Kenny to that "glorious" list. But I think he just serves coffee and blow jobs at the EPP meetings.
Nigel os controllerf opposition. You dont get anywahere near centers of power unless you are a member of the tribe.
Time is running out for the tribe and their financial games .
The tribe would be better to plan to flee to the Apartheid state of the Zionist Oblast in Siberia when the SHTF , because anything can happen including hunt the Jew games .
what are you... nuts?
I know right. Siberia?
Greek PR has fucked up everybody. He was looking on his way to keep his office by losing the referendum and make a deal behind Greek people back. But the referendum went against his wishes and Brussel bureaucrats. And now:
It appears that the Banking Mafia NWO is unraveling in Europe thanks to the referendum.
A Canadian politician rallying against the Fed? What a perfect example! I dare you to point one out. Just one! Try and you'll understand why Farage is such a breath of fresh air! Look among Canadian bankers... ex banker even! How about Mark Carney? Oops! Bad example!
Mr. Chordius, tear down this avatar!
JuliaS, my avatar stands for balanced budgets
and if this is "too much", then forget all about a "Return of King Gold", and we will all battle Krugman's War Against Mars, and add broken windows twice in the GDP calculations
Show me an EU country with a balanced budget, which is also actively paying back its debts... as Greece is required to do now.
required? lol. you truly don't know what you are talking about
have a look how much Greek sovereign debt was already forgiven, and let's make a wager on how much will be forgiven/defaultet in the next twenty years
Balanced bugets and debt backed fiat currency systems are mathematically mutually exclusive.
Here is a politician who reads Zero Hedge :D
They'll be easier to hang in smaller groups.
"nope. you won't hear him railing against British bankers, and you won't hear him railing against the Old Lady of Threadneedle Street, the Bank of England"
I have never heard him speak against Israel, the control Israel seems to have over the US and England's military actions in the ME, jewish control of the central banks or any other such criticisms. Makes me wonder if there is a intergroup conflict among the central bank owners about the EU.
Or maybe they use him to help keep England more seperated from the EU so that the Bank of England is protected while they pillage the wealth of the EU countries and ultimately break the EU countries from within using the EU. Using the Bank of England as a safe haven for the plunder so the citizens of those other countries cannot through political action ever retake it.
Nigel, is the man. You should listen to more of his speeches and interviews. He goes off on the Bank of England as well. You should of heard him speak up in defense of Iceland in that regard.
yes, he defended Iceland... after the British gov bailed out the Brits holding accounts in Iceland. but please do link something about him railing against the BoE
I do have something, but it has a different title: "Nigel Farage is a Monetary Dove"
http://www.newstatesman.com/economics-blog/2013/03/nigel-farage-monetary...
lol youll come up with any reason to bash the guy because he is calling out your precious EU dictators who you are clearly deepthroating
lol. sure. then listen something that might explode your head: I wish UKIP to succeed. there are few things that would make me happier then the UK to exit the EU
but in your black vs white understanding of politics this would mean that I would have to applaud untruths when told by him, eh?
As far as I can tell (from questioning him about Farage), Ghordie's points out that Nigel is:
(1) a banker (lived on usury)
(2) a politician (lived on taxpayers)
Thus don't go thinking he's the messiah, as he'll be in your pocket, if you let him.
He also seems not too keen on Farage's strong conservative view (which I actually like), and sees him as cynical populist, who's deliberately telling people exactly what they want to hear.
Sometimes I can see that, sometimes not so much.
I think his advice here to Tsipras was redundant because the carnival is over for Greece, they will be leaving, but they're now in the process of vomiting up the cotton candy, hot dogs and a toffee apple.
fair enough from what I wrote, but I don't mind most of that, only the fawning of the misguided
you hit the nail on the head with this, though: "sees him as cynical populist, who's deliberately telling people exactly what they want to hear"
what I really dislike in British politics in their internal pro-EU/anti-EU squabbles is the way they talk about the Continent: as we would not be able to listen
meanwhile, there is no frigging People in Europe that is more ignorant on anything beginning with eu- then... the English
compare to the Scots and the Irish that generally have an above-the-average knowledge of that stuff
sometimes I think Nigel Farage ought to come out of the closet and admit: "I am a Commonwealther, like my sponsor, and I'd like to see the Empire come back"
Yeah, well, Australia never wants to see that again, take note of the freak-out about Prince Phillip getting a knighthood on Jan 26th this year. Abbott very nearly lost his job over that. That construct is over, its just the Royals that live on. It pisses me off every time I see our stuff with "Royal Australian xxxxxxxxxx", written across it. No way, that's simply should not be there, the royals are our history, not our now, or our future, so they have no claims here and no one would accept them making any. So that relationship will be redefined as it can't continue. It's bloody embarrassing to turn up in SEA and have that written all across your stuff in big letters.
Fuck that. We're not that lost white tribe of Europe anymore.
Hi Element, those inbred dolts that you believe are 'Royals' (apparently) are merely appointees for the real 'dark claimants' of Terra Australis, the 'Crown' ie the City of London Corporation. Everything 30cm under the surface of your homeland (assuming you were born in Oz) is claimed by the 'Crown', over the more established and IMO legitimate first inhabitants that were disenfranchised with Cook's entirely bogus claim of Terra Nullius (no inhabitants, therefore up for grabs). So you're right that the 'Royals' have no claim here, but I'm curious to know how much you know about what most Aussies think is a legitimate 'government, to which they subserve. If you're not 'that lost white tribe of Europe anymore', what are you/we?
Overview: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Crown
Scott Bartle's exploration of bogus 'AusGov' (Commonwealth of Australia vs Australian Government): http://truth-now.net/
Australian Constitution is Section 9 of a British Act of Parliament, therefore not an 'Australian' document of 'self governance'. See: http://basic-fraud.com/?page_id=56

Tis is all whimsy and fiction mate..I, like many, have withdrawn my belief from the construct I was falsly led to believe was legitimate, and 'real'.
I love your username.
I've gone native, a white native it seems. Just as the 'Abos' were, and in fact are, deeply 'connected to the land', I'm also connected to the land more than ever, I'm simply no longer the pioneering interlopers that my parents were. I feel like I 'belong to the land' now. Here and nowhere else. So 'welcome to country' whities.
Consequently, when I see the text of a European royal house written all over our country and its assets and institutions, it increasingly makes me think, "why the fuck is that still there?" There's no way this genuflection to the house of Windsor can continue, it's repulsive. I may be well ahead of the mainstream but I know it's going to change soon.
Perhaps it'll finally be gone by the time we cark, here's hoping.
RE : "The real 'dark claimants' ..." I get your drift but most of that is cultural momentum, and it's falling flat. I'm not going to become unrealistic and pretend these things get resolved by some action, as they don't. Most of my problems are not caused by that, so not a preoccupation. The banks will go belly-up as RE tanks and 'we' will be put on the hook to the commissioner of taxation, for the greater good of making bankers never suffer the repercussion of their actions.
i.e. we've learned precisely nothing yet, as a culture, about what's going on in Greece, USA, Japan and China, etc. But personally, I've learned a lot.
He was NOT a banker. Get your damn facts straight. He was a commodity broker. Have you ever bought any commodities? Got any gold or silver?
I stand corrected, cheers. Appologies Nigel, unintended.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nigel_Farage
Gilad Atzmon "Jewish Power is the capacity to silence criticism of Jewish Power"
Or even the mere the existence of Jewish power, I would add.
That is who the deep state/shadow government really is.
Direct all questions and grievances to them.
The encouraging news is the European Union is coming apart. Draghi speaks only for Goldman Sachs, not for Europe. The EU is a bankers' union.
And yet the odd thing is, that Tsipras's body language shows that he's unhappy instead of happy about Nigel's inspirational speech.
Go figure. And if you add the fact that a couple of days ago he admitted that he thought and hoped that the Referendum would fail (No/Oxi) would lose, them maybe it indicates that he's not anti-EU, but pro something else.
Could that 'pro something else' be for the Statist to prevail, so that the Few can get richer, so that this Template of National Fleecing can continue and be implemented in other EU countries, like the PIIGS, etc?
I saw that too... interesting
I think Farage intentionally put pressure on him. Now, it is harder for him to give in to the EU.
what's so strange? Tsipras would love to see a "Federal Superstate Of Europe", as well as Varoufakis. It would solve all their issues
in the same way, they both would love to see a common debt (as the City of London bankers) and a common treasury
in a few things, both the European Radical Left and the Bankers of the City agree, fully
As Nigel said, "He can't have his cake and eat it too." Tsipras wants the comfort of the Euro without all the debt. Independence (Freedom) from the Euro carries a great deal of personal responsibilty and uncertainty. If I was Tsipras, I would be deathly afraid of having to pitch a balanced budget to the Greek people.
Nigel is dead wrong: You can ALWAYS "Have your cake and eat it too". It's how it works: You buy it, you have it, and you eat it. Duh!
You just can't.... "Can't EAT your cake and (still) HAVE it too".
Funny, how so few people pick up on this prevalent dyslexic expression. Goes to show that most people simply regurgitate what they hear, w/o really thinking it through.
Thanks for clarifying that.
That expression caused some cognitive dissonance with me.
In contrast to his beaming smile when he cast his vote.
Vote Nigel Farage ... for President of the USA
are you proposing a constitutional amendment, I wonder?
Since when do you have to be US born to become president? Dat Raczist
well, it prevents the cyborg called "The Terminator" to become president, doesn't it? how do you call discrimination of... things?
think about it: bots in the markets and a bot in the White House
no nigel, reality is that hillary is the man for 8 or more years. what a depressing thought. more can kicking, the status quo defended with all available resources. double talk and unlimited political bull shit. zh will have a tough time explaining why the crash didn't occur all those years. ug. going to be boring.
I doubt Hillary has 8 more years of functional good health. She doesn't look so good.
She hasn't looked good since day one.
Très à-propos. Coming from quasimodo himself, I believe we have a consensus here
since we are talking about the election of the Leader Of The Free World, I'd prefer something different from Bush vs Clinton
I would prefer to watch George Cloony versus Chuck Norris during the never-ending years it takes to go through a US presidential campaign
How about Madonna vs. David Dukes.
Might as well make it interesting.
Cups vs. Klux.
Cloony vs Norris would be better theater since that is all we get anyway. Might as well do it well.
Already have a bot in the Oval Orifice. Next.
The Terminator's mistake was admitting he was born in Germany, and not faking a birth certificate. Too bad for Schwarzenegger he wasn't a project of Axelrod, Rahm Emanuel, Soros and Podesta.
Well, Obama (on his book jacket) and his wife (in a public speech) both admitted he was born in Kenya, so admitting something shouldn't be an obstacle. Just lie and forge documents.
when he was born*, he was Styrian, first, and Austrian second. at that time "the EU" mythology was not that advanced, otherwise he would have been European, third
Styrians aren't always happy to be reminded that they are Austrians, too, and Austrians really dislike to be taken for Germans
* (in Thal,_Styria)
USA is dead. We don't need "leaders" anyway.
MSM: "Garage is unelectable. He's the Gov. Dean of UK n politics."
is how it would play out, if he or anyone like him tried to Truthful approach in the US.
Hell, even the self-promoting, arrogant, pompous and vain Donal Trump got whacked by the MSM for his slightl bit of honesty (regarding Immigration).
I'm not big on 'man crushes', but I LOVE this guy!
"Getting rid of debt-based currency must be the paramount priority of all of the peoples of the world".
Anti-semite.
What does being anti Palestinian have to do with it?
Assuming that the Agenda driven Sociopaths don't torpedo it first. We all know too well that we are dealing with a problem of control not finance
Getting rid of debt-based currency must be the paramount priority of all of the peoples of the world. Once this is achieved, relative peace will naturally ensue.
This can only be accomplished in a world free from control of bureaucrats, psychopaths and illigitamate constitutions. Let the Market Place decide.
It is a shame that the masses largely don't understand that they are the collateral for that debt....
Corporate welfare is also what killed the USSA, not Shaniqua and her $250/mn EBT card. $16 Trilion dollars is probably what's been recently printed to cover over the banks latest theft, not counting the prior hundred years, yet all the mofo's on ZH moan about is Shaniqua and her paultry rip on the system.
go ahead....strip out any subsidies....but dont cry when "shaniqua" needs TWO snap cards, not one.
EBT cards are fascism. It is tool to encourage spending on that which corporations produce. Corporations are a construct of The Law of Men.
Corcion is what kill the USSA. It was doomed from the start. We The Peep Holes merely jumped from King George's tax farm, to a different King George's tax farm.
interestingly, EBT cards have arrived in Europe, too. specifically... in Nigel Farage's UK
Your point? You seem to be attempting to create some sort of dichotomy, where there is none.
The real war is between the producers and the parasites. Membership in either group is wealth agnostic.
there is one, and it's connected to the War On Cash, so dear to tax gatherers, bankers and credit card companies
there are more clubs and memberships then those two, and way more complex conflicts then your real war
"Shaniqua"'s EBT card IS corporate welfare...every last penny in welfare given to Shaniqua ends up in corporate coffers...which then finds it's way to politicians to ensure the Corporate Welfare gravy boat is always full.
END:
SNAP - Walmart implodes
Medicaid - The "Health Industry" implodes.
Section 8 - The rental industry implodes.
Medicare - Yes, that's welfare too, and you are not "Owed" just because you're old and "paid in" 1/50th of what you're going to take out..end Medicare and the "insurance/health industry" implodes.
As others have also pointed out, Social Welfare is the Distraction for the Real Action: Corporate Welfare (TBTF, TBTJ, QE, Trade Deals, the MIC).
Social Welfare is The Bribe, to keep the Serfs from rising up in Mass, and sparking a bloody Revolution.
The Political Machine, its MSM mouthpiece, shills, agents and duped "Conservatives" are being taught to "Sing in Harmony", just like on that old Coke commercial (Hilltop song of... I'd like to teach the world to sing, in perfect harmony...").
They are simply the Useful Tools and Useful Fools of TPTB: The 0.001% Oligarchs and its Deep State.
Welcome to Feudalism 2.0 -- The Global Game. Sheeple, say "Baah! Baah, Ram, Ewe. To your flock be true. Baah, Ram, Ewe."
That'll do pig.
An excellent point. It needs to be said here more often.
Lots of Faux News/Drudge Islamophobe cunts seem to have accrued on the Hedge's windshield...
Hopefully a lot of them find what they are looking for. That is how some us came to be here.
If you wish to attack the problem you cannot omit to mention its cause. So, Nigel, say it for once and all:
It's the juice.
Nigel for Prime minister any day instead of the spineless, bloodless and grey Cameron.
And it cannot come soon enough.
Nigel is getting applause now when only a few short months ago he was being categorically boed.
Farage's rhetoric in the EU chamber reveals once more "the truth" about the EU reality.
Nigel should be a member of the British parliament, but on election night the ballot boxes went missing for six hours. A police investigation ensued and guess what......... he is still not an MP. Great shame I would love to see him lay into the smug bastard Cameron during question time.
History has shown that multi-culturalism has not worked, and it will not work. Nigel has the guts to say it right out loud. It will not work in Iraq (Kurds, Shiate, Sunni) or in the Euro Zone (Germany, Greece) or in the USA.
Brussels is a vipers nest full of the "intellectually gifted" with the tools at hand to bind and shackle enitre countries with words and paper.
The EU was assembled to facilitate their control freak objectives
Yes Farage gives gobsfull of great invective, but also pockets a tidy sum to attend the building of the talkshop of the bureaucrats that he despises so much, whilst at home heads any prospect of real change off at the pass...fascinating interview with Jack Sen, dumped from UKIP (United Kingdom Independence Party) for....thinking independent. He opposes the PC Cultural Marxists rollout of the plan to water down the traditional Eurocultures with forced immigration. UKIP = lightnning rod/controlled opposition/etc.

Its to bad voter fraud pushed this guy out...
I do like ol Nigel
fucking right. dude conducts meetings in pubs, openly drinks and smokes too much, actually understands economics, actually understands business, actually understands the euro and why it was set up. stands up in front of a bunch of nazi socialist cuntrags and tears them a new asshole (in brussels and in the UK) puts that retard russel brand in his place. i could go on and on. what's not to like?
Marked you up, but I think it was actually the deliberately-antiquated British voting system, that awards an all-or-nothing win.
From what I read, in a number of places UKIP actually won the popular vote, but failed the first-past-the-post test.

System tends to favour the establishment, just a tad. Something your USian popular vote winners might have some sympathy with. ;-)
USians are just dumb, its not so much about popularity, its more ignorance than anything.
I voted you up but USians are not dumb, they are ignorant and don't know it.
Up with the Bill of Rights, down with corporate government.
"ignorant and don't know it"
that's a dumb way of saying dumb.
There is some subtlety there. Consider the following:
The man who knows not that he knows not is a fool; shun him.
The man who knows that he knows not is ignorant; teach him.
The man who knows not that he knows is asleep; awaken him.
The man who knows that he knows is a leader; follow him.
Kinda trite, but a good thing to remember.
By the way, I just sounded out your username and finally got it.
Corporate government is redundant. An overarching function of government is to attempt to evade reality. The only tool at it's disposal is the gun.
You can keep your BoR. It protects nothing, if you outsource your rights to sociopaths seeking the privilege to coerce others.
Greed, Corruption and Mass Stupidity!!
The average American is usually a nice trustworthy person, from my experience. They have just been brainwashed from birth with too much flag, too much America and a narcicistic view of life.
They are not stupid, just ignorant about many things.
The only stupid thing is they have no real choice in voting. All are bought by the industrial military complex.
Now THAT is stupid, and will be the undoing of the US.
The person with the most votes wins the seat. What exactly is antiquated about that?
Everything. Especially when you can "win" a seat with 2% of the vote, so long as there's 98 other people running who all pick up 1%
simple: it's only one person on one seat, and this gives that person the claim (and authority) of having been elected to represent all voters
even ancient Romans elected two people for two seats, and each able to veto the other
and in fact, the very first English Parliament was composed of "two knights from each Common"
The US also worked much better when the Vice President wasn't selected prior to running, but rather was the candidate who came in second.
I thought this happened only once, and only with Washington, the only president that never belonged to any party or "faction", as he called them?
You presume that the person who got the most votes, was actually credited with getting the most votes.
What exactly are we voting for in the first place? Who gets to yank on our chains?
Look up "group think"...and Tyrants love a "whomever gets the most votes wins" system...
Nothing is wrong with that. Nigel got votes in the milions, yet he did not get into parliament. Some of the Scottish representatives got in with about 25000 votes!
There is certainly something wrong with that!!
But don't just rely on my figures, although I am almost sure they are correct, - look it up yourself.
Don't think that the British are unhappy with our parliamentary voting system.
We had a referendum on it 3 or so years ago and voted to keep 'first past the post' voting.
more to do with the UK's daft voting system. UKIP get 1 MP out of 12.6% of vote. SNP get 56 MP's out of 4.7% of vote.

at least they dont lying this time
Truth is treason in an empire of lies - so Farage goes nowhere in his political career as he is constantly hounded by the mainstream media.
In a room filled with liars an honest man will be despised.
In a room filled with liars, how does one know who the truth sayer is?
The one that is universally reviled, as opposed to merely hated by half the room.
This how Soviet and Chinese communists masqueraded themselves and fighters of working people (proletariat). But it was a lie. The Soviet empire is dead (and Prostitutin efforts to revive it are laughable) and China as well as the Western world "democracies" built on lies are unraveling. After all, the Banking Mafia is not too smart after all.
The fradulent great Socialist experiment started back in 1917 in Russia has failed after 100 years. You just cannot fool the Mather Nature for too long!
(Last night Zerohedge published footage of Greek people on the island of Lesvos raiding a food truck. Shocking.)
However, those were not Greek people but migrants.
More like ILLEGAL ALIEN INVADERS.
Migrants are legals who move about to look for work opportunities.
There's a difference.
Dude, Illegal Alien is not the preferred nomenclature. Undocumented Worker, please.
Future Democrats?
Nice, warm and fuzzy.
this guys great. saw him interviewed several times. id swap him for obama in a heartbeat.
with all the nazi references & WWI, WWII repayment references being made towards the germans + their trade surpluses exploding, i wouldn't rule out merkel & co. saying fuck it, lets deal with the pain and end this shit. when you have lagarde (IMF head, "leader") of a bankrupt country & renzi (another leader of a bankrupt country) calling for debt haircuts for another bankrupt country (greece), the germans might wanna wake-up realize the name calling is only gonna get nastier & nastier towards them the longer this shit goes on. i don't know if merkel is up for the challenge, but being that only 10% of germans support more aid for greece, it might be time to stop digging & just light the damn fuse already.
Is that trade surplus on a cash basis, or accrual basis? I think that's the rub.
Bravo Nigel....you tell em...and fuck the EU!!
