I think he’s going to do a runner. Hasn’t the stomach for a proper fight against a functioning opponent like Burnham. Carping from the sidelines suits him perfectly, but actual power? Doesn’t have what it takes.
Would be great for all of us if he did that, since that means we wouldn’t have to worry about losing all our rights. Less division and toxicity during political debates, too.
I can’t think of a single positive thing Nigel Farage has contributed to British society.
A permanent break would be even better and end up on an inhabitable island.
It’s going to be delicious irony when a week after Farage takes power the ex tories turn on him and kick him out of his own party.
Shit for the country but silver linings and all.
I don’t know about taking a break from politics but I do wish he’d fuck right off to the point where he’s fucked so far off we never have to see or hear from him ever again.
Dr David Bull, who was chair for Reform UK until May this year, said he was giving the advice as a “friend and a colleague”.
The comments come after Mr Farage was questioned over his £5 million donation from crypto billionaire and party donor Christopher Harborne, just weeks before standing in the 2024 general election.
The former Ukip leader was accused of laying low following growing attention – and criticism – over the money.
Dr David Bull, who was chair for Reform UK until May this year, said he was giving the advice as a “friend and a colleague”.
Mr Farage failed to declare the financial gift, provided by the Thailand-based donor, in the register of interests for MPs – a violation of parliamentary rules.
The Reform UK leader denied the accusations, saying he had“no obligation“ to declare a gift he received before he became an MP.
He initially claimed the donation was to pay for his security, but later said it was „also reward for campaigning for Brexit for 27 years”.
Speaking to LBC’s Nick Ferrari, he said he could „spend it on Ferraris“ if he wanted to, saying it had nothing to do with the public.
The donation is currently being looked into by the Commons sleaze watchdog.
He needs to take a leaf out of the SNP’s playbook of “nothing to see here guv” and do his own investigation of himself that finds no evidence of wrong doing whatsoever
Burnham’s mere existence has taken out the PM and the de facto leader of the opposition. Virtually overnight, and he hasn’t even taken power yet.
Even Restore seem to be disintegrating.
He should take a break from not being locked up.
About 10 years should do it.
Could just fly over to the states since he loves it so much over there. Maybe don’t bother with a return flight either.
Please stay. Every time he does an interview he comes across as more out-of-touch and corrupt. I think all the dodgy money that have lined his pockets recently have changed his personality.
Be nice is he had a big break from stealing oxygen.
Good. I’m sure he can live comfortably off of cameos.
He’s been on a break from his constituency for time. How much more does he need?
Farage taking a step back so reform can make up with Lowe/Restore? They must realise that they haven’t got a chance of winning a majority of 15-20% of the right wing vote is split.
The 5m story is not going away.
„It’s none of your business“ is not working.
Reform without Farage will be as successful as UKIP without Farage.
So soon…He just came back since when he got the £5 million he wasn’t in politics…right?
Pretty sure he’s going to have to step down due to ‘ill health’ at some point before the next election then scarper to the states where he can grift in peace.
So he can spend his 5 mill without the press all over him asking questions…
A break? Does he even have any qualifications in the direction of politics? Did he attend university? Does he have a background in, let’s say, law or social studies?
Populism isn’t politics. Posting 350 million more for the NHS a week on red busses isn’t a plan or a political programme to solve actual problems when there aren’t even “concepts of a plan”.
He’s just a standard issue grifter who’d sell his soul if it was worth money.
He shouldn’t be in politics at all.
Where I currently live most politicians have at least a degree that is relevant to politics.
If reforms fortunes start going the other way in the polls, he will go sooner rather than later. If they still look like winning the GE, he will stick it out and become PM. I then fully expect him to step down and someone else will take charge in the first year.
It’s easy to do fuck all when you are the MP for Clacton, it’s much harder to do fuck all when you live at No. 10 and you have a camera outside your door everyday.
Farage is finished. He knows that himself. His Party will go down with him. They won’t have enough people to even stand at the next GE.
Should that break be inside a jail cell for accepting foreign bribe money?
He could join the Welsh Reform leader who also got jailed for taking foreign bribe money.
That’s a nice way of saying STFU, he is now a hinderance rather than an asset.
I don’t think Farage has ever really wanted to be PM, he likes being the fox in the henhouse but I don’t think he ever really wants to be the person actually having to make difficult decisions where he’s held responsible for the outcome. It was always very convenient for him that he didn’t have to have any part in negotiating the Brexit that he brought about
Would his constituents notice of he took a break from politics?

The POS coward is overexposed. He peaked too early on a wave of fraudulent populism, and now people are starting to realise he is a billionaire’s toy. A play thing to be paid off and used to get them benefits in this country. Only interested in money and will sell this country out to oligarchy the same way America has been sold out to oligarchy. He goes into hiding and only comes out when he’s got an announcement of a Tory defection or there’s some type of public outrage. Just a complete pile of garbage
How’s this going to work? He does fuck all as it is
Should take a break (permanently) to Moscow oblast. Sure he political idol would love to have him rock up as a “guest”.
If he fucks off, he can spend that £5m of security money on other things, like a house…
Going by his voting history in the commons I assumed he already was on a break.
Between now and the day he dies would be an ideal length I feel.
Unfortunately, he is employed by the public to be an MP.. taking a break isn’t what he signed up for.
Don’t like the heat? Then fuck off completely.
I have a feeling if his finances were fully investigated he would leave politics, because he would end up behind bars
