When I say no political party, I meant no respectable political party.
I meant no mainstream political party.
It's true.
What I described to you just now has produced an insurrectionist tendency, which once was Nigel Farage.
And then he stopped being the insurrectionist because he's now got his own insurrection, which is Restore.
And that's another story why Nigel Farage is no longer the kind of go-to person for people who say the entire political establishment has failed us.
Well, I don't know.
I think there is a very ugly mood that's building in the public.
And I think that Restore is meeting that ugly mood with ugly rhetoric of its own, which I think is whipping it out.
Because people are getting so furious.
Yeah, but see, but Nigel Farage, you know, he is the most consequential politician since Mrs. Thatcher.
You know, arguably even more so than her in some respects.
And he was...
you know, and to a large extent still is the go-to guy for standing up against the political mainstream and saying, I am in tune with the public of thinking.
And to a very large extent, that is true.
But I think people have picked up that, two things.
First of all, on a couple of issues, and I can't now recall which ones, but they were certainly, I think one of them at least was a welfare issue.
He changed his position.
and he changed it, it would appear in order to appeal to a section of the population that he hadn't been appealing to.
And that's death, because this is a guy who was supposed never to do that.
