Don’t fall for this Farage nonsense

THE Reform Party contract is pure pie-in-the-sky nonsense and Farage admits he can’t guarantee it will work. He obviously used one of his fag packets to jot down his uncosted dodgy ideas aimed at disillusioned Tories who don’t know which way to turn.

Financial experts warn it won’t hold water and will sink the economy faster than Liz Truss. So he’s left with stopping immigrants, which will further undermine the NHS, and Brexit, which has decimated much of our profitable routes with European neighbours. This country deserves better.

The main policy of Reform UK is not the NHS or the economy, it is immigration. They say they will restrict immigration by matching numbers in by numbers out.

Presumably if he attracts a doctor and his family, Farage will deport the equal number of people to compensate. All parties are concerned about immigration but have they made suggestions like Reform to set up a special force? Are we going to be asked to out our neighbours or people we may know? Do we really want to end

up in a state like that?

Surely Nigel Farage doesn’t think he has a chance of getting into No10? His views are so far off what the British stand for. He certainly doesn’t speak for me or anyone I know. He’s running a one-man dictatorship. He wasn’t elected by his party, he just decided he would be

the leader. So much for democracy. Simon Miller

It was embarrassing watching Nigel Farage on Good Morning Britain. He is a good speaker but nothing he said made any sense. Ed Balls was correct when he said it would be the rich who would benefit. Reform UK is giving the Tories a run for their money but there is no way ordinary people would vote them into power.

They do not hold the same values as the majority, and their policies are too closely aligned with the Tories. I am surprised that Farage isn’t hoping to get Rishi Sunak’s job as Tory leader.

British people please wake up. Nigel Farage is a complete con man. Of course we would all like to pay no taxes but it’s a pipe dream. He is offering the world but has no idea how to support that. Please don’t vote for this rubbish.

I hope the public don’t fall for Nigel Farage’s rhetoric. His party

consists of failed Tory Party members, among other nobodies. His promise to stop immigration is just a repeat of his claims when he conned the public over Brexit, when he said it would see the end of immigration. That was a roaring success, wasn’t it!

Roy Tandy, Liverpool

Are we to expect a reciprocal election visit by Donald Trump to rally support for Nigel Farage? Are we to expect common language like “drain the swamp”? Will Farage’s manifesto pledge to teach “patriotism” include lessons on the freedom to slate your country, government and monarchy without retribution? If it doesn’t then we will be taking away what makes this country great.

True patriots know the reason we stood up to Nazi Germany. True patriots know freedom of speech is what separates us from those that live in fear of retribution in their own country. I think he’s attempting to woo the blue-rinse skinheads. Farage would change this country for ever.
