What do the people of Clacton—who voted for Nigel Farage sight unseen—think now? It has become clear that Farage, whom they supported blindly, cares only about lining his own pockets rather than the people of the constituency that elected him. They cast a surprisingly high number of votes for a candidate they didn’t really know, and now they are reading about his constant money-making schemes. I wonder what they think now, after Nigel Farage has proven to them that money matters more than Clacton?
Are they satisfied?
Have they realized they didn’t actually know the man they voted for?
Or is hostility toward foreigners and immigrants their only criterion? Have they started to think, “Is anyone who opposes my enemy automatically my brother?”
