It's noticeable you only mentioned the first bit of Nigel's comment, ie: "Climate change is a 'scam'".
The full sentence reads: "Climate change is a 'scam' intended to push forward this transnational government".
Reading the full sentence puts it in a totally difference context.
Can't say its any worse than Mr Corbyn's appearances on Press TV.. No scrap that, Corbyn's views are far more repugnant than anything said or implied by Farage in this article.
In fact, most of the criticism seems to be directed towards him appearing on Alex Jones's TV prog, rather than what he actually said.
Climate change NEEDs a transnational approach to tackle it.That doesn't make it a scam unless you're Nigel Farage and you need to hit every right wing loony tin foil hat wearing buzz word and talking point to keep all that sweet American money flowing in from the mouth breathing sub humans who listen to Alex Jones.
At a time when the planet is on its last of last chances, the last thing we need is Nigel peddling his insular Little Britain nationalist politics which is wholly unsuitable to the challenge ahead.
I don't believe it does put it in any other context than what it is, that climate change is a scam according to Farage.
I imagine Nigel Farage and Alex Jones sitting watching the movie Armageddon while screaming at the screen, "The asteroid is a libtard lie, it's a scam to send you into space Bruce Willis!"
There is another option gone. To be honest, he didn’t have to say anything. Just agreeing to do an interview with Alex Jones is a stupid mistake and undesirable association.
I agree. But to me that is enough. Shame.
He’s been going on the Alex Jones show since 2009 so it’s not really something new being reported.He’s always had the same attitude since he was the UKIP leader. Putting a new logo on the same person isn’t enough to change.
I’m not sure what the point is of comparing him to Corbyn? The article was entirely about Farage, as is this thread.Maybe there should be some wristbands made up with W.W.C.D. printed on them (“What Would Corbyn Do)? data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7
