Nigel Paul Farage is a British politician who is leader of Reform UK party. He was formerly a Member of the European Parliament (MEP) for the South East of England, and leader of the Brexit Party having previously led UKIP. Farage's party was linked to former MI5 and SAS agents and spooky bankers starting in the 1990s reported by ISGP.[1]

Early life

Nigel Farage on the EU referendum

UKIP & Brexit

Known as a prominent Eurosceptic since the early 1990s, Farage campaigned for the United Kingdom's withdrawal from the European Union as he left the Conservative Party in 1992 after the signing of the Maastricht Treaty, which made the EU a hybrid version of the federal state without borders following the Schengen agreement.[2] Farage was not popular in the UK, but became popular with UKIP for the European parliament.[3]

Nigel Farage played a pivotal role in the United Kingdom's decision to leave the European Union when the UK was under the reign of David Cameron, a process commonly referred to as Brexit. Matthew Goodwin, academic from the University of Kent called him the "most influential politician of the modern era (of the UK, sic)".[4]

2024 election

On 3 November 2019, Nigel Farage told Andrew Marr that after seven failed attempts to become a Member of Parliament he would not be standing in the UK/2019 General Election, preferring instead to coordinate the fielding of 600 Brexit Party candidates nationwide.[5][6] For the UK/General election/2024, Nigel Farage initially said he would not be standing for election to Parliament. But on 3 June 2024, Farage announced that he had changed his mind, was resuming leadership of the Reform UK party[7] and said he would stand for election at the Clacton constituency in Essex.[8] On 4 July 2024, Nigel Farage was elected UK/Member of Parliament for Clacton with 21,225 votes, a majority of 8,405 over the Tory Giles Watling.[9]


Rothschild and Spook Ties

During this time he became aligned with the "far-right" by British and CCM outlets, although he denounced popular idols of that group such as Donald Trump, Marine Le Pen[10][11] or his successors in his political parties.[12][13][14]

Farage appeared as a speaker of the spooky London Speaker Bureau and according to ISGP hired party members aligned to the Rothschild family; "Leading Euroskeptics Lord Norman Lamont and Lord Michael Ancram both served as chairman of Le Cercle, immediately establishing their deep intelligence ties. An ally of Lamont in the Bruges Group, apart from the participation of future Cercle head Michael Ancram, is Bruges Group columnist Philip Vander Elst, who is known to have visited Le Cercle in 1983. In 2009 Vander Elst served as a candidate of the Euroskeptic UK Independence Party (UKIP), along with party leader Nigel Farage. However, there's more. Much more." 4 out of 6 top financial resources for the Referendum Party to UKIP were linked to British intelligence during the early rise of Farage's UKIP: James Goldsmith, his son-in-law Robin Birley, MI6 and SAS spook Stuart Wheeler and HSBC banker Christopher Mills. ISGP also mentioned MI5 and SAS-connected former banker Arron Banks.[15]

Covid

In 2021, Farage wanted Tony Blair to be part of a "government of all the talents" to implement a rapid increase in the "vaccination" programme. Farage said Blair "does get things done, he commands respect, he is seriously bright."[16]

Opinions

Nothing Should Make Us Bomb Syria

He opposed bombing Syria in 2013, and said "We're On The Same Page As Putin & Assad Against IS" to Sky News.[17]

UKIP

On 8 May 2015, having failed to be elected at Thanet South in the UK General Election, Nigel Farage resigned as the leader of UKIP.[18]

On 12 May 2015, Nigel Farage suggested he could contest a by-election in a Labour-held seat after deciding to stay on as UKIP leader. Farage had promised to quit if he failed to win a seat at the General Election, but had his resignation rejected by his party. He told BBC Radio 5 live:

"I would look forward to a by-election in a Labour seat very much indeed."

He also said he had sat in a "darkened room" before deciding to continue. Nigel Farage failed to be elected in South Thanet, losing out to the Conservative candidate. He had said he would be "for the chop" if he lost out. Speaking to the BBC at the European Parliament in Brussels, he said he had kept his word but was "persuaded to change his mind" by "overwhelming support" from UKIP's National Executive Committee:

"I resigned. I said I'd resign. I turned up to the NEC meeting with letter in hand fully intending to carry that through," he said. "They unanimously said they didn't want me to do that, they presented me with petitions, signatures, statements from candidates saying it would be a bad thing for UKIP. So I left the meeting, went and sat in darkened room to think about what to do, and decided for the interest of the party I would accept their kind offer for me to stay and tear up the letter."

Farage also said UKIP's "greatest potential" was among Labour voters in the Midlands and the north of England.[19]

Debanking

On 4 July 2023, the BBC reported that the Coutts Bank account that Farage had was shut down because he fell below the minimum threshold required. On 21 July, that article was retracted, as it "turned out not to be accurate". This after Farage had published an acquired subject access request to Coutts of which the content implied that the company closed his accounts after considering his political views not aligning with the bank's values, though he met their criteria for commercial retention. After a secret conversation between the CEO of the NatWest Group under which Coutts operates, they issued a formal apology to Farage as Alison Rose, the CEO of NatWest, admitted that the handling of Farage’s account closure was not appropriate.[20][21] The scandal ultimately led to the resignation of Alison Rose, following pressure from other UK politicians and even the Prime Minister Rishi Sunak.[22][23]
