Both those parties also released manifestos for the GE - and have ignored them in the Parliamentary period since.
It's very wasteful, and in the Euro Elections a complete waste of time.
What, exactly, do you think any elected MEP can do to enact the policies they've listed in their manifesto?
Very little.It's very wasteful, and in the Euro Elections a complete waste of time.

I do however think it helps to perhaps make an effort to show you're not blatantly taking the piss out of the people you want to vote for you though by taking their vote for granted.
I get it, he can do no wrong in many peoples eyes, but talk about a piss take when you can be so complacent as to not even bother with even a token written manifesto.

However, his/the brexit party's policies are really simple - no engagement with the EU Parliament and as much pressure as possible in the UK Government to actually seek to leave without making us a colony.
Having looked at the available information, that's secured my vote, for the first time. It's the only "manifesto" I trust.

Totally mirrors my experience. Never previously voted for Farage before but he's got this one perfectly right. Plus a brilliant campaign which has made the others look so pedestrian and lazy (Farage don't forget started the Brexit Party campaign whilst the 650 waistrels in the HOC had their trotters up on their Easter break. Bless 'em, the delicate little snowflakes). And Farage's detractors often call him lazy, Wrong again.

Complacent not have written a token manifesto that can be totally ignored by the relevant party?I do however think it helps to perhaps make an effort to show you're not blatantly taking the piss out of the people you want to vote for you though by taking their vote for granted.

Nah, we all know what the objective of TBP is, and if anyone is unsure I don't see how
a token manifesto would help, and could even help his adversaries.
A GE would possibly be a different story.

Yes he comes across as totally trustworthy and honest.However, his/the brexit party's policies are really simple - no engagement with the EU Parliament and as much pressure as possible in the UK Government to actually seek to leave without making us a colony.

I think that's the way that many people feel nowadays. What use are manifestos when parties rarely put much of them in to practice anyway. At least there's no misunderstanding what the Brexit Party stands for - and the person behind it is also the same person who ensured that we got the referendum in the first place. He deserves a good deal of support for what he has achieved (for 17.4m at least) - in marked contrast to the abysmal efforts of our MPs.However, his/the brexit party's policies are really simple - no engagement with the EU Parliament and as much pressure as possible in the UK Government to actually seek to leave without making us a colony.

Remainers haven't worked out yet its not about Farage. People will vote for the Brexit party because the alternatives have lied and tried to overturn the largest political decision the people of the UK have ever made.
Farage could die in a plane crash and the result would be no different, the Brexit Party would still clean up.
People simply dont care about any bagage Farage may be carrying, he isnt the story, leaving the EU is the story for people who will vote for the Brexit Party.
Thats something all the smear tactics cant counter.

The story has moved on from leaving the EU the story is how the current MPs have deceived the public, the silent majority will always have the final say.Farage could die in a plane crash and the result would be no different, the Brexit Party would still clean up.

He doesn't like answering questions does he.

They are politicians. All I can ask is that they do what they say they will when trying to attract my vote.

According to Iain Dale, LBC presenter and pretty close to Farage so I trust the info, The Brexit Party's incredibly impressive Social Media campaign is run by a 19 year old!
