  1. “GET BRITAIN OUT OF EUROPE”
    “THE Daily Express today becomes the first national newspaper to call for Britain to leave the European Union.
    From this day forth our energies will be directed to furthering the cause of those who believe Britain is Better Off Out.
    The famous and symbolic Crusader who adorns our masthead will become the figurehead of the struggle to repatriate British sovereignty from a political project that has comprehensively failed.
    After far too many years as the victims of Brussels larceny, bullying, over-regulation and all-round interference, the time has come for the British people to win back their country and restore legitimacy and accountability to their political process.

    “Our political class bought into the European experiment after losing confidence in our nation and accepting the inevitability of decline.
    They viewed Europe as a life raft and clambered on board. The British people never took that view.
    Now it is Europe that is in decline and Britain that is being held back. It is time to break free.”

  2. Shouldn’t it be: your not getting the bail-out money UNTIL you’ve had your elections?

  3. Well, I wonder what he really thinks. If he would just come out and say what’s on his mind!
    That’s the problem today, so much speech is so stilted and full of meaningless words and doublespeak, that when someone actually says what they really think, using real words, it’s almost shocking.

  4. It’s to late to save Eurabia, what they haven’t sold to the Saudis they’ll have to sell to the Saudis to pay for the finacial bailouts. Saudi Arabia will own Europe, and that’s exactly what the leftwing elites wanted to accomplish they’ll wonder off to their Caribbean mansions with their number accounts never to be seen again.

  5. The best part was the look on the faces of some of the moochers he was chastising. They looked like a little kid that has been caught with their hand in the cookie jar. Oh, wait… they were caught!
    I would love to see someone with the courage to speak up in our House of Commons with the same confidence.

  6. “The coward dies a thousand deaths; the hero dies but one.” How blessed is Nigel Farage. He must walk and breathe so easily knowing that he is a free man jealous of his liberty, free to speak the truth, unconstrained by the petty tyranny of lies, deceit and the constant looking over ones shoulder that must plague the Eurocrats. They by contrast can never rest, knowing that they are in a constant juggling act holding at bay reality, the truth, honesty, and forced to endure each other’s company. Nigel can walk freely among his people, stare them in the face, and enjoy the full measure of the common man’s good company, knowing that he hides nothing from him, and that he does him no deceit or ill.
    “The truth shall set you free.”

  7. While listening to Nigel Farage speak, I started to think of the tune London Bridges Falling Down. Good Luck on rebuilding the UK.

  8. Too bad so many banksters and politicians keep saying/hoping there’s a light at the end of the tunnel.
    That ain’t no light – that’s a train coming.

  9. Good old Herman Von Romprump, the great Globull Warming SCAMIZER, yea, here he is in all his UN splendour, picking the pockets of the worlds idiots to save the “planet”. Well Europe and most of the western world, you are BROKE, the great Globull Warming Tooth Fairy Unicorn, did not deliver you from stupidity, thanks assholes, we are all poorer from your lieberal lunacy. Looks like a convention of Stiffon Dions, taking that verbal spanking from Nige.

  10. When the EU collapses, all the “progressive” leadership in all participating countries who originally sold the idea against overwhelming majority protest, need to be rounded up, tried as traitors – and hung!
    Send a message that the world’s citizens will never allow these socialist “Liberal” monsters to have the power again. “lest we forget”

  11. Please somebody invite him to immigrate here! Give him Ontario as an incentive!
    Gads,I’d like to see him tear into some of the smug communists in our House of Parliament.

  12. Hide the Decline? Where is O*?

    The collapse will come, despite everything, as a surprise. Michael Gerson at the Washington Post says that the Left is completely flummoxed at why things are going so contrary to plan.
    “I cannot recall a president,” Robert Kuttner says in the Huffington Post, “who generated so much excitement as a candidate but who turned out to be such a political dud as a chief executive.” Obama is “fast becoming more albatross than ally.”
    Terms you never thought to see again — outside of those old Revolution Bookstore tracts — are back. Economic saboteurs, wreckers, capitalist roaders. These are responsible for the set backs of the Revolution, aka Hope and Change.
    So Matt Yglesias warns the White House to be prepared for “deliberate economic sabotage” from the GOP – as though Chamber of Commerce SWAT teams, no doubt funded by foreigners, are preparing attacks on the electrical grid. Paul Krugman contends that “Republicans want the economy to stay weak as long as there’s a Democrat in the White House.” Steve Benen explains, “We’re talking about a major political party . . . possibly undermining the strength of the country – on purpose, in public, without apology or shame – for no other reason than to give themselves a campaign advantage in 2012.” Benen’s posting was titled “None Dare Call it Sabotage.”
    And can you blame them? Just as the President was touting his new engagement based foreign policy, a deficit-driven New Deal, carbon trading cap and trade and European-style health care and welfare every single one of these policies falls flat on its face. Gotta be sabotage.
    Or maybe they got it wrong. But the puzzlement is basically there. A large segment of society will not be able to figure out the cause of the decline until the curtain literally rings down.”

    “Obama was later spotted by reporters through an upstairs White House window holding what appeared to be a compress against his mouth, while the White House Christmas tree was being delivered outside.”

    “U.S. President Barack Obama was accidentally elbowed in the face while playing basketball Friday and received 12 stitches to his lip, the White House said.”

  13. I don’t know if too many here appreciated the closing song. It’s ‘White army, Black Baron’, an unofficial battle anthem of the Red army. My blood boils with rage when I hear that, but honestly this was the most appopriate soundtrack for the video.

  14. Justthinkin: It may very well be that the gravy train of bailouts has ended. Chancellor Merkel has taken a huge hit in public support over the past month, as indicated here:
    http://www.reuters.com/article/idUSLDE6070KO20100108
    There is simply no good will left among German voters it appears for any more. And even the Greeks knew that, which is why they played the WW2 guilt card earlier this year.
    That said, the Germans are in a quandary here. These countries are the ones that buy most of their exports. If they are forced out of the Eurozone, a lot of German business (and indeed all the rest of the Eurozone nations) is going to become uncompetitive with the re-emergence of new and devalued national currencies in southern Europe.

  15. Let me quickly translate the lyrics, just to put my previous post into the context. After watching the video I am no longer convinced that all is hopeless in the EU and that all that’s left for UK is us having to pull the plug and sink the island.
    White Army, Black Baron
    1918
    Music: S. Pokrass Lyrics: P. Grigorieff
    White Army, Black Baron
    Are restoring tzar’s throne
    But from taiga to the British seas
    Red army is the strongest
    Ref:
    So let the Red [army]
    Grips with power
    It’s bayonet with a callused hand
    And all of us must
    Burst ourselves into the last battle to the death
    Red army, march forward
    Revolutionary council calls to battle
    Because from taiga to the British seas
    Red army is the strongest
    Ref.

  16. Check out some of the previous videos of Farage at the EU. They all laughed and smirked at him while he spoke. I didn’t see any of that today!

  17. dmorris @ 9:15, yes.
    Thanks Aaron @ 10:38. The Red Army march is quite appropriate for the theme of these videos. The Black Baron, reference to White Army General Peter N. Wrangel, was quite familiar to some of our family members. This march also comes at the end of the whole string of the videos of Farage and the other fellow Hannon.

  18. Nigel! Wow he had some of these Elites go almost loony. They know there time is almost up. The real World has a way of doing away with wishful thinking.
    The Thief from so many taxpayers is coming home to a bloated sour gas bag of anti-Democratic Marxists.
    He’s right . If a new age of Nationalism spurts up from the freedoms taken & their Countries marginalized. Not to mention all the Freeloaders they have created.
    The Romans knew what a mob would do with no bread or circus.
    The Euro’s have forgotten.

  19. Obama will probably propose that the US bails out the EU, maybe they can all join and call the whole mess the FU.

  20. I only saw that clip of Nigel speaking in the European Parliament, just after Van Rompey’s bizarre annointment as EU President…….
    “Who are you?
    Where did you come from?
    Nobody has ever heard of you?”
    This shortly after the news of Van Rompey’s appointment…..had me saying WTF….where did he come from?
