MP escapes Essex for some winter scum
The dishonourable member for Clacton, one Nigel Paul Farage, has a reputation that stretches way back to his days as a member of the European Parliament of raking in his salary and not doing the work that supposedly comes with the job of being an assembly member in a representative democratic institution.
Indeed, as The Guardian noted over six years ago: “His voting record while a member of the influential European parliament fisheries committee is utterly dire – over three years, he turned up to one of 42 meetings“.
He is now treating the gullible burghers of Clacton with the same contempt. He has not so far organised a single surgery for constituents citing spurious “security” concerns, on which he later backtracked.
Furthermore, he seems to spend more time away from the House of Commons than actually in it, which might just be understandable given the frog-faced grifter earns far more money outside than his already generous MP’s salary of £91,346, according to both the press and his register of declared financial interests.
We are all aware too that the western shore of the North Sea can be a dismal place in the heart of winter; and Nigel definitely thinks so too, as he’s just decided to put the whole of the Atlantic between himself and his constituency, as he has posted the photo below on his on-off pal Elon Musk’s apology for a social platform.
Farage is not the only right-wing British politician clogging the streets of Washington DC with their malign presence at the moment. The former MP for West Norfolk, one Mary Elizabeth Truss, whose term of office as prime minister was shorter than the shelf life of a lettuce, is also there, taking a break from sending cease and desist letters to one Keir Rodney Starmer via her lawyers.
The reason for this outflow of talentless right-wing (ex-)politicians? The inauguration in Washington tomorrow of the disgraced 47th president-elect of the United States, the disgraced former 45th president, insurrectionist, convicted felon, adjudicated sexual predator, business fraudster, congenital liar and golf cheat, one Donald John Trump.
The actions of both fake man of the people Farage and Lettuce Liz remind your ‘umble scribe of moths circling a lit candle… 😀
In other news, Farage’s party colleague, the perma-tanned Richard James Sunley Tice, the ‘businessman‘ whose smile would be gleaming as he stole your granny’s savings, is now splitting his time between his original constituency of Boston and Skegness and his new bailiwick of Dubai.
