@rec777777 @GOV2UK Vaccine rollout was as EU members under reg 174 of the Human Medicine Regs 2012 which allowed individual countries within EU to act independently to give temporary approval to an unlicensed medicinal product in the case of certain types of public health threat, such as a pandemic

@E77Evert @jillrbeattie @IsabelOakeshott You've perfectly described Farage's agenda, "squeeze maximum cash out of slaving tax payers to benefit corporate donors", and take away the NHS and benefit support, reduce rights for workers, the disabled and minorities. You been blinded by his "man of the people" act!

You clearly don't understand what the establishment and vested interests are. These have less to do with education, class etc - that was last century. Now they have all to do with the big government agenda i.e. centralise power at the expense of citizens, squeeze a maximum cash out of slaving tax payers to benefit corporate donors, unaccountable civil servants and the army of small minded, hate filled, leftist politicians. This is clearly not Farage's agenda. You get it?

The demonisation of Reform leaders -eg casually accusing them of “exploiting” Ann Widdecombe’s murder-has very real consequences for their safety. This could not be more serious. Please: just stop. It is NOT a game.

@policylaila Haven't you worked out that Farage wants to lose the by-election so he can escape scrutiny and leave all you poor suckers who've fallen for his snake-oil politics in the lurch looking stupid as he swans off abroad with his millions?

Since it seems you’re either intentionally obtuse, or so deep inside the establishment bubble you can’t tell up from down, let me define what I mean by “the establishment.” The establishment isn’t defined by wealth, success, private schools or impressive careers. If it were, every entrepreneur, footballer, celebrity and business owner would be part of it. They aren’t. The establishment is the network of politicians, senior civil servants, quangos, regulators, publicly funded institutions and influential media figures with direct access to the levers of power. They write the laws, allocate public money, shape policy, influence the institutions that govern our lives and have enormous influence over what is treated as respectable or beyond the pale in public debate. Their worldview is formed largely within the same political, institutional and media circles. Ideas are reinforced by one another rather than tested against the experience of the people they govern.When outsiders challenge that consensus, they aren’t just opposed, they’re discredited by the political, institutional and media networks that protect the system. Membership isn’t earned with an Oxford degree, a banking career or a successful business. It’s earned by serving and perpetuating the system. Which brings me to The Times. It suggests I’m somehow part of the establishment because I went to the Lycée Français and became a Senior prosecutor. That’s a category error. I’ve never written Britain’s laws, run a government department, controlled public spending or shaped the political consensus. My education and career don’t make me part of the establishment any more than they make me Prime Minister. They’re confusing personal achievement with institutional power. The same applies to Nigel Farage. For decades he has challenged the political consensus that has dominated Westminster. While the establishment was running the country, he was campaigning against the direction it was taking. That’s precisely why so much of the political, institutional and media class has spent decades trying to ridicule him, discredit him and paint him as the villain. Not because he’s part of their system, but because he has consistently challenged it. That’s what the establishment is. It isn’t a social class. It isn’t a school. It isn’t a bank balance. It’s defined by what you protect: a self-serving system that puts preserving its own power ahead of serving the people it exists to represent.

@AllisonPearson The scary thing is that anyone, given his record of destruction (Brexit) and his total lack of work ethic to profit anyone but himself (see MEP and MP voting and attendance records) could possibly think that he could fix anything for the average UK citizen.

Millions of people see Nigel Farage, however flawed he may be, as “our last hope”. The establishment don’t understand how broken people feel their country is, nor how urgent the need to fix it. I wrote this: 👇 telegraph.co.uk/news/2026/07/0…

@ZiaYusufUK Farage wants to lose and run away with his money.

Establishment party leaders have been slating Nigel every day for years now. Presented with an opportunity to make a case to voters and beat him at the ballot box? They run for the hills. Cowardly and transparent. The establishment is on the ropes.

@JohnCrowth26767 @LizWebsterSBF @stephenkb We do make things British people buy - in fact since Brexit the UK is the only place we sell because exporting costs to the EU have made our products too expensive.

@Transfergraeme_ @LizWebsterSBF @stephenkb Perhaps you should make things that British people want to buy then.

🚨 @stephenkb cuts through one of the weakest Brexit arguments. Claiming Brexit caused no economic damage because Germany has also grown slowly “defies plausibility.” Anyone who runs a business or simply buys and sells goods has seen the extra friction, lost sales and abandoned exports since Brexit. But his most interesting point is this: Brexit didn’t just change Britain, it changed the EU too. By leaving, the UK lost its ability to shape Europe’s agenda from within. The Anglo-Dutch alliance that pushed for freer trade and competitiveness disappeared, leaving Britain outside looking in. We lost access to our biggest market and lost influence over the rules that still affect us. 🔥 That’s the hidden cost of Brexit.

@JohnCrowth26767 @LizWebsterSBF @stephenkb I spend more at Tescos than they spend at my business - but that's OK because I end up with food and other things I need to have a comfortable life - see also UK - EU trade!

@LizWebsterSBF @stephenkb The UK always imported more from the EU than we exported to the EU

@UKDispatchBox @nidriks1 @Heccles94 One of the few times Farage actually turned up to vote was to oppose extensions of workers' rights.

@nidriks1 @Heccles94 I have no reason to believe we won’t

Which of these rights don’t you want Bobby? Or perhaps more appropriately, which of these rights do you not want us to have?

@big_mikky @Alex24S45 @UKDispatchBox @Heccles94 You don't understand - we were also members of Eurodac which holds a database of their biometric info so we could immediately identify if they'd sought asylum elsewhere. But the Dublin agreement was a deterrent rather than anything else. Look at the figures before we left the EU

@Alex24S45 @UKDispatchBox @Heccles94 You really do not understand the Dublin agreement do you? We couldn't deport any of these people unless we could prove they had tried to claim asylum in another Eu country first. How do you do that when they arrive with no documents? The Dublin Agreement was worthless.

@steirvine66 @archer_rs They gave a lot of concessions - they just weren't reported by the UK media whose foreign owners stood to gain so much from Brexit.

@archer_rs The EU commission was to blame for vote leave. Had they not been so pig headed not giving any concessions. Then there never would have been a referendum. The common market was a good concept but the institution of Europe was a staple too far

People of Twitter 👋 If you are still so mind numbingly misinformed, stupid or unable to understand why Brexit was a disaster and should be fixed with EU Rejoin immediately please do not reply to my posts. Thank you for your attention to this matter.👍

@AndrewW07993192 @Hunterfiveseven @LizWebsterSBF @katie_martin_fx Andrew - give up with him - he's totally immune to facts from people like us who know what we're talking about - I tried to talk sense to him but he knows what he knows (which is nothing) and doesn't listen to anyone who doesn't agree with his blinkered and ignorant views.

@Hunterfiveseven @Transfergraeme_ @LizWebsterSBF @katie_martin_fx I worked in this field for 30 years. The reason so many third countries adopt EU rules for imports is so that they don't have to establish different trade flows for domestic and export markets.

🚨 Financial Times’ @katie_martin_fx delivers a sobering verdict on Brexit. On referendum night, sterling collapsed from around $1.50 to $1.20. “It has never recovered.” Her conclusion? That tells you how international investors now view the UK. Foreign capital is harder to attract, government borrowing is hugely more expensive, and Britain has diverged from stronger-performing economies. The good news? She says the best hope for reversing the trend is a meaningful rapprochement with Europe. Only rebuilding our relationship with Europe can reverse the decline.

@Hunterfiveseven @LizWebsterSBF @katie_martin_fx No I just want one specific example - and like all your kind - you have nothing. No-one disagrees that the EU influenced and amended much UK law - nearly all of it to our great benefit - but you specifically said imposed by Eurocrats - and yet you can't name a single law.

@Transfergraeme_ @LizWebsterSBF @katie_martin_fx Take your pick. bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politi…

@Hunterfiveseven @LizWebsterSBF @katie_martin_fx It astonishes me that you are still coming up with these old and completely discredited lines - you obviously have no involvement in the real world of supply chains! Still no case of a law "imposed" on the UK either!

If countries in the EU want to sell goods to any countries not in the EU the goods have to meet standards set by those countries. If the EU wants to sell us goods they have to meet our standards. We don't have to apply the EU standards to goods not being sold to them. That's a choice made by our quisling government. Most businesses in the UK do not export anything to the EU. Facts not remoaner lies. fullfact.org/europe/how-man…

@Hunterfiveseven @LizWebsterSBF @katie_martin_fx What laws "made by the EU" were imposed against the will of the UK government of the day? We are more "law takers" from the EU now than we were as members, if we wish to sell products/services to the EU we still have to follow their law but have no influence in creating that law.

@Transfergraeme_ @LizWebsterSBF @katie_martin_fx The UK government was irrelevant because they had to accept laws made by the EU. Whether they adversely affected me is also irrelevant. We couldn’t vote out the lawmakers in Brussels, they were appointed. We need politicians who can run the country, not law takers.

@ChrisDr55269105 @LizWebsterSBF @katie_martin_fx In 2000 the average rate across the year was £1 = 1.64 Euro and the rate was typically better than 1.50 Euro until the autumn of 2007.

@LizWebsterSBF @katie_martin_fx I worked for a Dutch company in the 00s in the UK & dealt in £multi million deals Please tell me exactly when the £stood at €150 ??? That is an outright lie !

@Hunterfiveseven @LizWebsterSBF @katie_martin_fx I've asked many Brexit fans this and never got an answer but I'm willing to try once more just for you. Name any law imposed on the UK by "Eurocrats" against the will of the UK government of the day that adversely affected your life.

@LizWebsterSBF @katie_martin_fx Whatever the cost it's worth it to be able to be self governing. So glad that the Eurocrats no longer have the power to impose laws on my country. Say no to the fourth reich.

@donmcgowan Keen to emphasize he's taken 0 personal expenses - he doesn't need to with a fleet of donors' helicopters, private jets and chauffeur-driven cars at his beck and call. I wonder when he last bought a bottle of the expensive red wine he prefers to "a pint" away from the cameras?

If you have a spare 3 mins and 45 secs today, watch this fantastic grilling by Sally Nugent on BBC Breakfast. The very first time I've seen Farage questioned properly about his £5M bung, and it's fair to say, he totally fluffed it. There are points when you can see Farage tremble and even accuse the BBC of putting him in danger. 🤦‍♂️ It was for security. It was for cars. Nobody cares. It's no one's business. He won't tell us. DANGER! At one point, he let slip that the Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards may 'disagree' with him on the rules around donations. He knows he's going to be found guilty on this one. He's in trouble, and his face gave it away gloriously. Top hats off to Sally Nugent. Stellar work. 👏

@lewis_goodall It certainly was a moment of poor judgment - but he is generally a force for good!

Steve Bray blasting Ode to Joy, ruining nationally historic moments like this for us and posterity, is a complete disgrace. A yob.

@nortonflynn92 @DougWahl1 A copy of the Epstein files, a bunch of flyers for McDonalds and promotional material for the contractors who paid him kickbacks isn't going to make a library!

@DougWahl1 Who cares ? When Trump opens his presidential library he won’t invite them either, no big deal

Do you agree with Trump being left out? For the first time in US history the sitting President was not invited to attend the opening of a predecessor's library. Clinton, Bush and Biden all showed up at the Obama library... no Trump. Your Thoughts?

@cooovin @TCbytheriver @Miss_Snuffy Actually far less knowledgeable - in our day we actually had to learn and remember things - now they can just Google it!

@TCbytheriver @Miss_Snuffy You were quite literally less knowledgeable.

Funny. 🤣 I wonder where else children might learn GCSE content and from whom? I just can’t think of how that might happen apart from via YouTube. 🥴
