Watch Conservative U.K. Politician’s Epic Tirade Against France’s Socialist President and ‘Warlike’ EU

Feb. 8, 2013 7:00pm Becket Adams

Everyone’s favorite conservative U.K. politician is back, and this time he goes after France’s socialist president.

Citing France’s unsustainable and unworkable economic policies, MEP Nigel Farage this week accused François Hollande of creating a situation where vast currency differences would force France and Germany into separate monetary unions.

Farage also ripped into the French president over what, he says, is a trick to disguise France’s economic problems: Military intervention abroad (see Mali).

As always, Farage is fiery, unforgiving, and brutal:

Strange how our American liberals keep the war going like the French liberals to cover their financial shortcomings. Almost like we are all on the same course……

  Wouldn’t it be nice if we had someone like him? He speaks the truth as he sees it, no political correctness from this guy.

Oh, as long as it pertains to foreign politics, and not domestic? We suggest these changes for English Parliament and to help promote sales of the NY Times?

All males must wear pink mini-skirts, in order to promote harmony and to help politicians think clearly abou the future?

All male “egg rolls” must be microchipped, due to rampant theft of all male “egg rolls” in England, we would like to know how to return them when they are found wandering around in the public by themselves? We know thousands will reproduce in the wild and will not be chipped anyway, but who cares?

Even though micro chips are known to cause cancer, we are confident that subjecting the “male egg role” in front of a “microwave” to eliminate the cancer will elminate that concern?

In order to elevate women in England and to promote equality for the gay community, and to prop up dropping sales in fudge pops, all females must wear “male egg roll” strap ons while commuting or appearing public?

Permitted sizes, distribution ratios and colors are to be determined at our next public announcement, we would publish them now, but we can not stop laughing at you for not protesting these rules and are currently rolling around on the floor in hysterical laughter? We want to celebrate and relish our victory suppressing your civil rights as well as prevent our boredom in the future?

You can cuss and fuss, pout and plead, but you can’t stop reading laws like these?

Just to clarify – Farage is not member of the conservative party or an MP. Misleading headline or what? UKIP – known to one and all as Nazis in suits.

  Just to clarify – Nowhere does it say that Farage is a member of the Conservative Party. It says that he is a conservative politician. Conservatism is a right leaning political ideology. Also nowhere does it say that Farage is an MP, but states that he is an MEP (European Parliament). UKIP – known to one and all as Nazis in suits? Actually UKIP is the other end of the political spectrum to the Nazis who were the National SOCIALIST Party (left), who were more in tune with the Progressives (left) currently running the U.S.S.A. (Fascism (left) = total government control, Communism (left) = total government control, Socialism (left) = total government control, Libertarianism (UKIP) (right) = minimal government control, Anarchism (right) = zero government control) – Just to clarify.

I’ve been following Nigel Farage on YouTube and Twitter for more than a year now. His tirades against the idiocy of the EuroZone are nothing short of EPIC! They bring a smile to my face EVERY time!

The problem with Farage is that there aren’t more like him. This guy is always spot on. Keeping schools dumbed down guarantees that he could be last. Now where’s the Kool-Aid.

Great minds think alike, small ones newer differ.

When Argentina’s economy is having problems they talk about Falkland island.
When China’s economy is having problems they talk about Senkaku / Diaoyu Islands.
When Iran’s economy is having problems they talk about Israel.
When Europe was having problems they talked about NATO operation it Libya.

Well now EU is still having problems the French do action in Mali as NATO will not this time.

  @GINGER
  
  I’ll finish your statement:
  
  When the USA is having economic problems they talk about….. bombing God knows who but bombing somebody and when that conversation and action doesn’t work they talk about putting drones over the U.S., violating the Posse Comitatus Act with live federal military training over civilian downtown areas like Miami, while at the same time pushing to infringe on their citizen’s 2nd amendment rights to bear arms and enforcing no free speech zones.
  
  Did I get that right? If so I want a cookie.

A British version of Paul basically. Also you can apply this speech to Netanyahu who might do this to hide his failure and attempt to simulate his countries economy.

“If you really think that taking on fundamentalist radical Islam, in battle, is something that we can somehow succeed in, I suspect that we will launch ourselves in the same way we have in Afghanistan, on a decade of unending, unwinnable, misery.”

  How about taking on Fundamentalist Radical Government, driven by a Marxist Muslim who wishes to crush the American spirit and attitude in order to spread the wealth and build a two tier socialist system run by the UN where you are a worker bee providing funds for the Elite class. Could we do that……….???? Maybe??????

another politician wising up to the fact that war is a racket. France is doing what we did in 2003…Foreign war and debt to paper over a weak economic recovery. Expect Obama to do something similar very shortly

  1776 was a racket and 911 was an inside job and Iraq had 0 WMD’s, And you wonder why I point out the chem trails and dead babies eaten wrapped in gold CRAP from infowars? Who cares as long as you get your weed huh? It is sick and sad to this day that Paul got zero traction because of people like you and Jihad Jerk. France and Mali are their own issues. Farage is spot on, for the Euro trash union. Only.
