"At this time, means this time of the EU elections"
Completely false in terms of what Farage said. Listen to what he actually said. He was very clear.... He talked about issues arising at different times in relation to British Politics not in relation to which vote was involved at any time. He the circumdtances today with the situation at the time of the referendum, mentioning Merkel's differing actions.
Your journey into fiction ended the argument.
crowcast, just to elaborate, i get an undertone from your posts that, you want us to read one of you facts - which im actually happy to accept as an actual fact - and think "hes right, ive got it all wrong, refugees are a tiny number, cant believe i voted brexit, im going to be a remainer from now"
people dont want eu laws, and people dont like islamificaition of the uk, ppl dont want cetain"groups" breeding at rates 5x higher than our own who dont contribute as much to society.
and not just the uk , germany neither wants it, nor sweden, nor poland, nor hungary, nor austria, nor france, nor norway, nor usa, nor australia,
if you think im rasict, good, thank you, and f**k off.
you wont win anybody over telling us refugees are small in number, WE DONT CARE!.
get that in your noggin, and stop wasting your time.
i wont bother commenting anymore, because i couldnt care less after this post.
i just feel for you as i see u actually think u can alter peoples views in ur posts, its not going to work pal.
left cycle finished, right cycle started in 2016, it will continue for many years to come.

''He said in effect the reason he was not focused on immigration just now was because it was not a burning issue for the UK at this time''
Correct.
At this time, means this time of the EU elections. 'Burning issue' means the central issue for the EU elections, which is all bout democracy.
It doesn't mean though that ''The refugee crisis is not a significant issue now'' as you are suggesting Farage said.
crowcast, sorry to inform you, but you're wasting your time...
your efforts, even when realised, are a drop in the ocean.
just so you know, nobody voted brexit because of refugees, it was more immigration, however it wasnt due to the eu immigrants like the bbc put said it was, it was re the immigration which occured 50+ years ago from africa and the middle east...
no1 cares about the little polish families which you see in the park... but the bbc cannot ever talk against there main agenda... so diversions are used.
does that clear things up for you? you seem lost.
stop talking about "tiny number of refugees", you are clutching at straws lol...
refugees arnt talking over entire towns, having 6 kids a family, forcing all women in the house to stay at home(ie not contribute to taxes by working).
has the penny dropped? or should i spell it out more for you?
That is not what Farage said. He didn't say he wasn't focusing on immigration on the basis that these are EU elections. You are making things up now.
Let me help you with the logic. He said in effect the reason he was not focused on immigration just now was because it was not a burning issue for the UK at this time. He confirmed that.
We can take that as confirmation that the tiny number of refugees - a tiny subset of immigrants which will be unaffected by brexit - are not a burning issue for the UK now too.
In which case ... refugees (not a burning issue) are an insignificant problem compared to treason and corruption at the highest level. Which would indeed be a burning issue. Comparison confirmed.
How significant do you think the half million Euros the IDDE misused.. a lot of which was for UKIP and Farage in his campaigns, and the £35000 Farage misused ... how significant is that to understanding how much Farage's really cares about democracy?
JFCC
''If it was a significant issue to his campaign do you think he would not be shouting about it ? ''
You are beyond stupid.
The refugee/immigration problem was one of the issues in the pre referendum campaign to leave the EU.
The 'leave' argument won the day.
The refugee/immigration issue has not gone away but has nothing to do with the campaign for this weeks EU elections., which is all about sending a message about upholding democracy.
Clear?
JFCC
''Can you work out why Farage is not making an issue out of refugees?''
Do you not read or understand anything?
The issue right now are the EU elections and the message that needs to be sent to the HOC about democracy
JFCC
''As for your link''
The link is to show that the refugee/immigration problem is still an issue. It hasn't gone away
As for your link.. how how significant an impact do you think Brexit would have had on preventing those attempts at illegal immigration. A clue it .. won't change it.
And relatively speaking how significant and useful have the EU's actions of negotiating with countries outside the EU to keep millions of refugees out been ? Would things be better if the EU had done nothing and those millions had come in ?
Can you work out why Farage is not making an issue out of refugees?
JFCC
As you do not like to admit you were being disingenuous, I will have to repeat yet again what you posted.
''The refugee crisis is not a significant issue now.. as confirmed by Farage himself.''
then read my 20.57 again
LTI... lolol... if as Farage says ... we are in different circumstances now and immigration is not the burning issue AND accepted refugee figures are running at one hundredth of one percent of population how do you believe that is significant compared to wrecking the country with corruption?
If it was a significant issue to his campaign do you think he would not be shouting about it ?
If you are worried he did not say the exact words "I confirm that this is not a significant issue" you can check your own quotes. They were not verbatim transcripts of all he said either.
So sticking to the point .. do you think we should let the press and control if the country be sold by crooked politicians at the highest level in government in order to have no impact on the 6000 or so asylum seekers we are taking in?
Have fun splitting hairs on your own your boring fart.
JFCC
So first of all it was
''''The refugee crisis is not a significant issue now.. as confirmed by Farage himself.''
then
''On the Marr show Farage said "immigration isn't the burning issue of the times".
So you had been twisting things again, hadn't you.
On the Marr show Farage said "Mrs Merkel made a very big mistake''
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-kent-48327335
On the Marr show Farage said "immigration isn't the burning issue of the times".
Refugee asylum applications accepted in 2018 to uk were about 5000 or 6000. About a hundredth of a percent of population?
Brexit won't change that. Farage knows it and he knows the EU have drastically reduced flows of refugees and helped manage the problem. So we won't be hearing much about it from him. If he could he would still be screaming.
So.. back to the original point .. as I said it would not be very wise to say we are happy to let politicians act corruptly, let crooked foreign billionaires control the country or trash the justice system to deal with levels of asylum seekers which are small and can not be significantly reduced anyway.
As for Farage worrying about democracy ... he and groups he is associated with have been caught with their hands in the till more than once misusing tax payers money to influence UK election votes.
LTI they're on the back foot trying to deploy counter strategies of sound biting which worked fine when media was delivered on paper & print but now we can see everything unadulterated on the net. Its embarrassing watching the muppets flounder in modernity. I believe we're witnessing a complete deconstruction of the old guard, interesting times!
JFCC
''The refugee crisis is not a significant issue now.. as confirmed by Farage himself.''
Disingenuous.
He said that a big issue has been immigration, but at this current time the number one issue is democracy
Simon what are regufees. Another Cornyn tax I suppose.
No.. I will take that back Simon.. the simple bit .. I haven't seen you post here before and I have no idea who you are so there was no need to be sarcy on my part. We disagree very clearly that's all. Good to see another poster here regardless of views.
Simon if so you are very simple indeed and long behind the times. The refugee crisis is not a significant issue now.. as confirmed by Farage himself. You just said you are happy to condone countries being trashed through corruption and treasonous behaviour to deal with non-issues.
o look i spelt bribary with an "a" not an "e", that must make me a brexit supporter
lol
we would all rather accept millions in bribary than millions in regufees from the middle east.
thank you!
Supposition? Nonsense Boomerbower. Yiu don't know of
1. Video showing Freedom party arranging to accept bribe.. and a public admission and a new snap election in Austria.
2. Laws passed in Hungary.
3. Court cases, fines imposed in the UK and admissions of £450k by Farage.
Your post contains no facts just a lot of supposition and nonsense.
*provable.
Boomerbower
All the facts mentioned are provanle and largely admitted. Which fact do you dispute?
From start to end your post is bs.
