Nigel Farage calls May, ‘Theresa the appeaser’ - States that we are leave the EU in name only
Ridiculous untrue comments calling him racist bla bla (the usual liberal/remainer remarks) will be ignored

It seems to me that the EU's idea of 'negotiations' is that it presents its 'proposals' on the table then promptly refuses to budge from any of it. It wants to only hear 'yes' from the UK and nothing else.
The EU doesn't want to negotiate. It's dictating.

From outside the UK: The exact same goes for the UK's side. Always "No, we want ALL the benefits! No, we do not negotiate!"

Since the Brexit vote it's been blatantly obvious that TPTB have no intention of allowing anything of the kind to happen. It took them a year to even invoke Article 50, and since then virtually no progress at all has been made to get us out.

And all this faffing about and stalling that's still going on is really just a feeble improvised smokescreen to hide all the political treacherous plotting that's going on to keep the UK under the EU's jackboot for all eternity.

Farage is a populist rat.
He inherited his millions from his daddy. He played around in the city for a few years being a commodity broker. And then he became a populist rat.
He lies. Endlessly.
He is an elite. He stands to profit by Brexit.
He is a racist. And yes, wah wah, it's not fair, the evil liberal is calling my lord and master a racist. But he is unquestionably a racist.
But mostly he's just a lying liar who lies.
But because he tells lies that a bunch of people like we get threads like this.

I voted out.
I also oppose the existence of people like Nigel Farage (fascists, xenophobes, Islamophobes) and deny that they have any right to live on the soil of this great nation, whose sons were sent to fight fascism, and saved the world from it many years ago.
My ancestors demand the banishment of these gutter raking scumbags from my island.
I want the UK out of the EU, because our membership was illegal from the get go, and because I believe that it is the only way to isolate and eventually tear down our current system of government in the UK, before replacing it with something more representative, something which values the freedom of the people more greatly, than it does the security of the country, something which places the correct importance on eradicating all poverty from the isles, not fluffing the pockets of the already well off.
A British Exit from the EU, by and for the people is what I want, not some tax haven promoting, tax dodger appeasing crapstorm, and CERTAINLY not the rise of the fourth sodding Reich. If UKIP or anything even one inch further right than the Maybot tries to take up government as a hobby, that thing, that party, that organisation and anyone who swears fealty to its membership, will die in fire and agony in their thousands, before I ever let them take this nation for their own. It is not theirs. It is mine, it is ours, and they do not belong on it, leave alone in control of it.

Thing is SprocketUK, I am a difficult bastard.
I do not accept the idea, for example, that the ends justify the means. I believe that just ends can ALWAYS be achieved, and MUST always be achieved, by just means. If an end cannot be achieved in a just manner, then its possible that the ends are not just.
So even if the only way to achieve a British Exit from the EU was to get behind UKIP, I would still rather sit cross legged in the path of motorway traffic, than actually do that, because the ends are justified by the means used to achieve them, not the other way about. My thinking is, that if it cannot be done with better than UKIP, if it cannot be done with left wing values at its centre, if it cannot be done in a manner which promotes the welfare state, destroys corporatism, stamps on fascist throats and makes people who vote conservative because they believe in it, want to jump off the roof level of their nearest high rise car park, maybe it should not be done at all.
Don't get me wrong, I voted out, but thats why I also voted Corbyn. We must come out, but if we are going to, compassionate, caring, decent people must be the ones to lead us out, not the hardnosed, dunderheaded puppets of the business elite, or the knuckle dragging, gormless wretches further to the right of them. If we cannot have it done perfectly right, that is to say, from the leftist perspective, then maybe it should not happen at all. It MUSTN'T happen under a far right or right wing governance, or at least, if it does, that governance will need to be destroyed the day after, without delay.
