Introduction – Nov 2, 2020

Despite what some may claim, Nigel Farage IS NOT false opposition. If he were the authorities would not have tried to kill him.
While campaigning around the UK for Brexit the light aircraft he was travelling in crashed after a banner it was towing became entangled, or so an inquiry found. Three years later and the pilot of the plane, Justin Adams, were found dead.
More recently in 2016 Farage nearly had a fatal car crash after one of the wheels of the car he was travelling came off. French police later found that the nuts on the vehicles’ wheels had been tampered with.
That would not have happened if Nigel Farage were false opposition. Ed.

Nigel Farage is seeking to relaunch his political career by rebranding the Brexit Party as an anti-lockdown party.

The party has formally applied to the Electoral Commission to change its name to Reform UK and will campaign against coronavirus measures.

Announcing the party’s new aims, Mr Farage – who has led UKIP several times – and Richard Tice, the Brexit Party chairman, said it will tackle several ‘powerful vested interests’.

These include ‘the House of Lords, the BBC, the way we vote, law and order, immigration’. The pair also claim ‘badly run, wasteful quangos are in abundance’.

But the party – which hopes to capitalise on anti-lockdown sentiment – believes the most pertinent issue is ‘the Government’s woeful response to coronavirus’.

…

It claims the Government tried to ‘terrify the nation into submission’ while waiting for a vaccine which it says ‘is no way to tackle a disease that may be around for a long time’.

The party – led by Mr Farage – supports the Great Barrington Declaration which was penned by three top scientists and is now backed by more than 44,000 medics and scientists.

The letter calls for an isolation of only the elderly and vulnerable so the rest of the population can contract the virus with the hope of achieving herd immunity.

The declaration has been widely criticised, with Health Secretary Matt Hancock claiming it is ‘not true’ that herd immunity can be achieved by enough people catching coronavirus. 

The announcement is set to make Boris Johnson’s life more difficult as he seeks to calm his restive MPs who oppose the new measures. 

In a joint article for The Daily Telegraph, Mr Farage – who has led UKIP several times -and Mr Tice said: ‘Lockdowns don’t work: in fact, they cause more harm than good.
