So far, Mr Farage's sense of humour has cost quite a lot of money this year. He's one of the biggest freeloaders of the lot.And what exactly is wrong with an "ad hominem" argument? Dodgy Agent, 16-5-2014Comment

None absolutely whatsoever. Just trying to be informative about some of the voting that they've taken part in. I'll post some of the stuff they've voted for shall I? I mean this is what the general public should be told about, what their MEP is actually doing for that extraordinary sum of taxpayers moneyOriginally posted by DodgyAgent View PostAnd your point is?“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

Bloody difficult but here's a couple of Farrage's votes as he was for §22 of this:Originally posted by Mich the Tester View PostPlease do!

VoteWatch Europe: European Parliament, Council of the EU
but against §36 of the same bill:
VoteWatch Europe: European Parliament, Council of the EU
Interestingly enough he seems to absent whenever there are votes about other countries joining the EU, civil liberties and those aboout the European Bank. He did vote for this though:
REPORT on the EU strategy on Roma inclusion - A7-0043/2011
