It seemd Nigel stood aside for the 'greater good' and smash labour in 2019 and get brexit done with a stonking majority.

Now it's clear our leap for sovereignty out of the frying pan of the EU was into the fire of the globalists NWO/WEF/WHO ...will he step up? Or is he happy with his media rant channel salary?

This country is fluxing between just about there and totally effed. I've actually lost most faith in the Brits about me in the last two years, including the majority of my outer family who barred us from the family get together for not agreeing to a 'voluntary' self-imposed test, and even my sister who said two-tier society was right for the unjabbed.

Nevermind the politicians, how can I feel comfortable walking around a town in these Isles knowing one day people seem fine, the next they'll wear masks and sell you out to the police if asked?

Yes, I know what you mean. It's been demoralising to see so many people fall to the group think and hysteria. I try to remind myself though, that there is a big silent-majority phenomena that we see in Britain and Brexit was a great example of that.

We were repeatedly told from every media outlet and high office in the land, that Remain had it in the bag. Well... in the privacy of the voting booth clearly a lot more people said "no thanks" to the EU, despite the most expensive and intense state-sponsored pressure campaign probably since WW2?

And that vote only even happened because of Farage. Who never even held a seat in Parliament. Even for those who hate him, he's almost certainly the most consequential political figure since Thatcher, and possibly since Churchill (given the nature of what Brexit was about; sovereignty). He did all that without even a voice in the Commons. It's a good reminder that it doesn't take 51% of the vote to topple the existing players. As we've seen, it looks like it takes about 15% to move a major to one end of the field, and 30% to bring them to their knees.

I do wonder if he regrets stepping aside though. But if he didn't, and then we got no Brexit whatsoever, I can't imagine he'd ever forgive himself, don't you reckon?

I did allow myself to consider that scenario once, and given we're in the global situation, I felt if his party had got 15 or 30 seats, it'd have been such an important voting bloc. The tory rebels could have lashed themselves onto it too.

However, Nigel got double vaccinated and only smelt a rat prior to the booster campaign! Then he started inviting guests on for a debate over the booster. But he was onboard with the freedom movement and pretty sure he'd have voiced against lockdown 2 and 3.

Thanks for the positive reminder, the silent majority is however, silent. We're still raising our kids here, but showed them all Mexico, which they loved. The cartels meant they never shut down nor are abandoning cash. Better to live under a robber baron that a pretend do-gooder, the former is easily satiated, the latter with prove the relentless tyrant.
