Nigel Farage, a millionaire who, like Trump, tries to win votes by declaring immigrants as enemies, and his party, ReformUK, faced public backlash in Shetland, where they went to campaign. Farage, who still hasn’t even answered questions about how his party’s expenses are covered, was one of the main reasons for the economic collapse in the UK, having dragged the country into Brexit with former Prime Minister Boris Johnson. Now, the same man is trying to come to power by claiming he will save the country.
Just like in the USA, in the UK too, an anti-immigrant, racist, and lazy crowd, similar to Trump’s supporters, is applauding him, deifying him. He has no project other than anti-immigrant rhetoric. He and his family are Belgian citizens, yet he continues to portray immigrants as a fundamental problem to the public.
But in Shetland, he faced an unexpected reaction. As Nigel Farage approached a crowd to give a speech, he said, “We need to increase the number of millionaires in the country,” when a citizen reacted and delivered a historically significant critique. He said, “Millionaire parasites want to get into politics and get even richer. You’re a scrounger millionaire too.”
Farage left the area in response to the reaction, but like Trump, he immediately changed the subject and created an enemy. He called the protesting citizen a “modern Marxist.”
What that protesting citizen taught us all is this: the wealthy enter politics only to exploit the people more and increase their wealth even further. Nigel Farage doesn’t care about the country. A significant portion of his wealth is in Belgium. It’s not even clear that he doesn’t pay taxes in the UK. But he tries to win votes by exploiting the national and religious sentiments of the people. This emotional and easily deceived segment sees foreigners as the cause of their economic problems and believes that the economy will improve if they leave.
After Brexit, millions of people returned to their countries. Almost all of those who came from Eastern Europe dispersed throughout the EU countries. In the UK, our border is no longer secure; it’s become like a sieve. Far more people are entering the country illegally and uncontrollably than before. Food prices have tripled. There are no people available to work in the fields. The economy is so terrible that unemployment rates are constantly rising, and there are no people to work in the service sector.
That’s why all the rich people in the world are the same; parasites on the backs of the people. They gnaw away…
