UNMASKING THE REAL NIGEL FARAGE

No doubt I will be heavily criticised for writing this…but even more I will lose friends over it? But for the sake of honesty and integrity I must confess that for all the years (25) I had always admired Nigel Farage. Yes, I knew he wasn’t perfect, but then who is?

But being at the forefront of in Wales with UKIP I was on many occasions in close proximity to him aim and I mean feet not yards, but he never ever acknowledged those around him just the personalities. So, I was shocked when I read a piece that showed him disrespectful of my people the Welsh Nation!

To describe the people who have ‘busted a gut’ over those years as being foreign speakers was a denigration too far.

Nigel Farage made the remarks about Welsh people in a video made in July 2025, for which he charged £106.

He recorded a wedding message for "Toby and Sam" and followed a script that said: "I really wanted to come, but when I heard that half the guests were Welsh, I thought: 'That's far too many foreigners for me'."

In a second version, Nigel Farage said: "Gutted I couldn't attend the wedding. I wanted to come, but I heard that half the guests were Welsh, and I don't know. Who knows what would have happened with all those foreign speakers there. I don't know."

A spokesperson for Mr Farage said: "A Cameo is a short, personalised message requested by members of the public and should not be treated as political statements or campaign activity."

WRONG! "People in Wales deserve respect, not cheap, divisive rhetoric designed to provoke and divide.

I am so glad that I have left REFORM and joined RESTORE and will now personally and privately with my own finances pay for a leaflet to be delivered to as many people as possible!!!
