We need more like him: politicians who speak their mind, rather than spout what their PR minders think will go down well with whatever target group is flavour of the minute.
The fact that he's usually right is icing on the cake.
Fact! Farage only says what the men and women in every British pub are saying. Go to any crowd of people over the age of 40 and they agree with Farage. Those who don't agree are the fat cats and non-productive bureaucrats paid out of taxes, or those mouthy individuals living in subsidised housing in Islington and Notting Hill with shoulders like champaagne bottles, and who never leave footprints. Bravo Nigel Farage. At last someone sufficiently articulate who calls a spade a spade!
I felt sorry for Poor Old Tim Kirkhope having to sit next to him! I should think he will phone his wife and ask her to put "earplugs" down on the next shopping list!
With an election coming it's good for the British public to see what a real Tory looks like. A reminder of what voting back the nasty party will mean for our political discourse.
The two problems TB has with yoof politics is the lack of accountability and a lack of humour - TB intends to kill, or at least wound these two birds with one stone. editor@torybear.com

Shaming. Completely shaming and damning that this is the behaviour of a British statesman towards another international statesman.
He is rude, shouty and disgusting. Any valid points he has are lost in this ludicrous performance.
Hannan was astute, Hannan was effete, Hannan was not crude.
Nigel Farage is no Daniel Hannan.
More like this and this chap could garner my vote.

Where's our bloody referendum?

His performance and audience reception on Question Time last night won't have done his chances in Buckingham any good whatsoever.
More's the pity.
Hardly subtle, is he?
Watch how Boris took the fight to Labour as he ran rings around the Labour London Assembly Members at Mayor's Question Time this week. Epic.

Farage gets my vote. Great stuff - someone at least standing up for the normal British people in the EU.

Calm down dear, it's only Democracy in action.
I appreciate this is an unfamiliar concept for Labour voters like yourself, but give it a chance and I'm sure you will learn to accept it...
