I’m sure he should be treated as breaching the lockdown rules like anyone. His timeline doesn’t make sense at all.

Tulsa rally was night of 20th June - so earliest he flew back was on 21st June - that’s 13 days.

I’m sure even the £25 types will be concerned and keen to hear an explanation as to why the law doesn’t apply to Nigel.
Did you allow for the time difference chopper?
Yes, it’s 14 days from when you arrive back in the UK.

The BBC and the Mail make Farage relevant again shocker!
Both Media organisations heavily biased towards remaining in the EU with no axe to grind.

It's no different to those with the same agenda posting on this thread, it's only Remainers that bring Farage up.

If Farage has violated any legislation he could be fined £1000 apparently, let's see if Kent Police knock on his door like they did the last time some bitter individual reported him for going to the Kent coast.
You know you could simply say "If he hasn't obeyed the rules about quarantining for 14 days he's an idiot and deserves any action that the Police see fit" which is pretty much my take on it.

It's got nothing to do with the EU or the Daily Mail (that famous remain newspaper hehe).
Did I not say he could be fined £1000 for violating any legislation, funnily enough, you quoted my post saying just that!

Perhaps you needed a crayoned doodle of Kent Police knocking on his door, which I also mentioned.

It's clear you missed Paul Dacre's replacement at the Mail as editor, his replacement is a well known remainer Geordie Greig, hence the change of style evidenced in the paper's reporting of Brexit and the Tories.

Nothing to do with the EU? Are you being serious? It's everything to do with the EU/Referendum/European Elections/General Election, to suggest otherwise is blatant ignorance and a risible comment.

Who reported Farage to the Police?
Now suggest it's got nothing to do with Brexit, utterly ridiculous suggestion that it's not

I think we would both agree that Ed Davey will have reported him for political reasons.

If you're a public figure as Farage is and if you go tweeting pictures of yourself enjoying a pint when you may be meant to be in self-isolation it's not unusual for people to ask questions.

This is the Farage thread so also not unusual for stories about Farage that are widely reported in the media to be discussed.

Personally I think I've been pretty fair but I would say that.

It would be nice to see the story addressed at face value i.e. politician appears to break quarantine in the middle of a pandemic rather than the predictable response from the usual "Brexit, EU, whingers, losers, I've just pissed myself" mob.

Must admit all those on Nigel’s brexit walks did look like they had a faint smell of piss about them.

The leader of a UK political party invited to the USA by the American president and granted exemption from their own travel rules... I wonder if this will come under the same exemption that Macron was afforded when he visited...scratchchin

I have a grudging respect for them.

Even if I didn't support their cause at least they got off their arses and did the full walk rather than turning up for the odd photoshoot.

Re 2), does a diplomatic passport prevent the carrying or spreading of this particular virus?

Do you not understand that diplomatic passports afford privileges to the holder?

Has it been established that he's broken the law?

If it has been established that's the case then he'll be rightfully prosecuted, and fined up to a maximum of £1000.

Whilst the guidance states that regardless of any testing for CV19 the quarantine period must be observed for 14 days, Farage stated he had been tested and the test had provided a negative result, so he didn't put any lives at risk at all when he visited the pub today.

At best any infringement was him failing by one day (if the reports are true) to observe the 14 days mandated for quarantine, based on your leanings the infringement will be judged by many as 'Oh dear' to 'Oh my god!' 'Shoot Farage or give him a life sentence at least, life to mean life'

What petty political stunt did Farage carry out? Does visiting a pub constitute a political stunt, or was it something else?
