You need to realise that people vote completely different in local/ eu elections as to general elections.

Which facts are bollox? 1 MP out of a possible 3,900 in 6 GE attempts? Farage having lost 7 attempts at becoming an MP? A high point of 1 in 8 voters arsed to put their cross in a box of a leave the EU party at a GE?
Just because you don't like the facts doesn't make them bollox. Put your dummy back in.

He's a one trick pony because any of his success has been based on a single track policy.
Nobody ever asks him about policy on education, environmental issues, transport, potholes and manhole covers  because there's nothing in his party manifesto beyond his obsession with leaving the EU
For some - it would seem many at times - that's enough.
But not for others.
And scozza.... thanks mate! And I'm always so polite to you!

It's not fact it's just your opinion and my opinion is you're talking bollox.
If you are here just to talk bollox you're doing well, if you're here trying to get responses from people that are prepared to take your point of view you are failing.

They're facts, not open to interpretation, or any ambiguity, just facts.

You can make stats look like anything.
In the 2015 election when it came to votes UKIP came a strong 3rd and got bugger all seats. Vote wise they were very successful. If we didn't have a 1st past the post system then no one would need to vote tactically and their vote could've been even more.
Notice I said could've and not would've, trying not to fall into the stat trap

So you’re selectively picking figures from before the referendum then, proper politician’s trick!
It’s a bit like Joe Swindon keeps saying “Look how well we Liberals have done in the EU elections “
Heard her come out with the same statement numerous times this week, she’s not saying ““Look how well we Liberals have done in the EU elections, but the two week old Brexit party still annihilated us by more than double!”
If they would only start telling the truth

The facts are Farage/Ukip have put their message to the people in 6 GE's. They've bounced around between 100k votes to a high of 1 in 8 people voting for them. Winning 1 seat out of a possible 3,900. Farage contesting 7 parliamentary seats in election's himself, winning zero. Not very successful and clearly voters had other priorities than leaving the EU.

One trick Pony – that’s not true when you look at the facts.
2014 with Farage in charge UKIP totally destroyed all the other parties with 27.5% of the vote.
2019 with Farage in charge a two week old party called the Brexit party annihilated all the other parties with 29 seats of the 72.
I will give credit where it’s due, put it this way if Farage is such an imbecile – what the hell does that make the rest of the politicians? Because it’s a fact that he’s totally run rings around the lot of them twice with very little effort, the truth is he’s made them look somewhat pathetic.
Personally I don’t like any Political party, as I’ve never in my life time seen a single one of them when elected do what it’s supposed to do – as soon as they get in office they are like a Child let loose in a Candy shop! They all just take the Pi##.
I actually agree with Corbin that the Utility Companies should be in public ownership and none profit making, but all the other stuff he comes out with is for the fairies!
I also agree there was a Mass lies spouted by the Remain Camp before the Referendum, all have proved to have been total Bull Sh##.

Really? The country owes him a massive thank you for proving what most already knew about all of our politicians.
