Right, well it really doesn't help his case that Farage actually has run a business. Compared to some fumbling twit who can't even direct himself correctly on a stage, who is virtually clueless on economics like most leftists, he does look pretty good.Originally posted by darmstadt View Post
But never let that get in the way of the anti-UKIP hysteria/histrionics of some.Comment

Actually he was just an employee in a commodity brokerage which is slightly different to running a business but don't let that get in the way of factsOriginally posted by Zero Liability View PostRight, well it really doesn't help his case that Farage actually has run a business.

Need to sign up, but still he was also a failed businessman:
Mr Farage’s next broking venture was less successful. In 2003 he joined forces with his brother and another metals broker, Daniel Gillespie, to found Farage Limited, a commodities broker. That company ended up insolvent. In September 2014 it was in the process of paying back £33,000 in owed taxes. Mr Farage remained a director until February 2011, records filed at Companies House show.Why?Neither Mr Farage nor Ukip would comment on his City career for this article.“Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.”Comment

I will admit that I never read the doctrines of Marx too carefully, but, would you mind awfully showing me the bit where he advocated cutting corporation tax and providing zero rated business rates for small business ? maybe I've got the abridged version.Originally posted by RetSet View PostYeah, he'a a bit leftie, but he's not a Marxist. Unlike Ms Krankie.

And a successful one in his prior venture. Such is the nature of entrepreneurship, and markets, and something even the most successful serial entrepreneurs will encounter. Whereas the three stooges vying for power have practically zero exposure to business in any shape or form, although they certainly do like to ramble on about it a lot.Originally posted by darmstadt View PostNeed to sign up, but still he was also a failed businessman:Last edited by Zero Liability; 2 May 2015, 11:42.Comment
