Of course Farage would be the first to capitalise on this tragedy. He has a long track record on this. He just can’t help himself opening his nasty gob.

Farage is just trying to make it political to stay relevant to the morons who still listen to him.
@
Sounds like Farage just wanted to casually mention that he's had a talk with the P.M and he's really a very important man🤡
@
If Iain Duncan Smith is telling you to rein it in, you’ve gone well past the point of decency. Farage doesn’t respond to tragedy, he performs on it.

"if you were the leader of the opposition would you really have close dealings with a convicted money launderer and then expect people to ignore allegations of money laundering?"
@
Farage took a helicopter and his own camera crew to lay some flowers - not at all a publicity stunt 😂
@
I wouldn't put it past someone like farage to not set this up as a false flag, just to try and distract from how much of a total joke he's become.

The truth is Farage would take any opportunity to light the blue touch paper. If the perpetrator hadn’t been white he would have already told his followers they were collectively being attacked.

It’s sad we live in a society where a person meets a horrible death at the hands of someone else. It is also sad that the media and others can’t let the Police get on with their job without inflaming the situation.
@
The thought of such an irresponsible liability as Farage being a Prime Minister of any Country doesn't bare thinking about.
@
Plot twist, Farage is speculating to nudge police off the scent... 😮
@
Every opportunity for Farage to deflect and distract and he’ll take it. He’s a slimy, insecure & mostly insincere little man…

You can rely on Farage to make a drama out of a crisis. Anything to put him front and centre as long as you dont mention his iffy donors or rich cronies.

Farage is trying to capitalise on his colleagues tragic death. No moral boundaries this man.
@
Never thought I would 100% agree with Ian Duncan Smith, but hey!
@
It is hard to comprehend how anyone but a diehard Reformer cannot see through Farage as an ace conman anymore.

Farage never lets a tragedy go by without weighting up how to use it for his own advantage

The CCTV video released by Farage regarding the journalists doing their job by calling on the house he was registered as residing at, and had been photographed outside of, showed a car pulling up on the drive. He is trying to conflate this with his narrative of he being placed in danger. There is no thought for AW and her family just this POS trying to exploit a narrative.
@
If there’s a chance of grandstanding a situation you’ll find Farage there.

If Farage has already solved the case shouldnt he hand his evidence over the the old bill?
