Well I was considering voting reform as I am not a fan of any of the main 3 parties, but I will now probably vote green.
The Putin comments from Farage did it for me. Even Putin himself doesn't claim he invaded Ukraine because of NATO aggression. His excuse was to get rid of Ukrainian Nazis, but we all know the real reason is because he wants the soviet union back.
As for far right candidates , that is a real problem for the party, and with reform being the furthest right of the main stream parties it will inevitably attract some from the far right. So for that reason and the Putin comments , they wont be getting my vote.
Farage loves to distance himself from those, like In that clip, with the "those views are not in line with mine." He must know what he does and says attracts them. He's not that daft.
Listening to a book on Hitler these last few weeks. It's brought up time and again that Hitler would never say publicly his more extreme views. He would allow others in the party to do it for him. He allowed Goebbels to publicly slate Jews and start attacks on businesses etc.(Like crystal nacht) But would never do it himself. Farage plays that same tactic.
