Paperback. "I don't want to be rude but, really, you have the charisma of a damp rag and the appearance of a low-grade bank clerk and the question I want to ask is: 'Who are you?' I'd never heard of you. Nobody in Europe has ever heard of you." Much of UKIP's success over the last few years, including its extraordinary performance at the 2014 local elections, can be laid squarely at the feet of its leader, Nigel Farage, a man whose apparent fearlessness and off-message willingness to speak his mind, while horrifying many, has offered a tonic to those who are sick to death of the usual round of sound bite politicians. Like him or loathe him, Farage has reinvigorated political debate in Britain in recent years with a dazzling array of politically incorrect, tell-it-like-it-is bon mots and public utterances, most of which are collected here in this entertaining volume. A compendium of Farage's best quotations. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. Seller Inventory # 9781849548175

Synopsis:

Whether you love or loathe him, no one can deny the reinvigorating effect that Nigel Farage has had upon political debate in Britain in recent years. Indeed, it is to him and his energetic leadership that UKIP owes much of its success.

Positioning himself as a lone splash of colour in an era of monotone political leaders, Farage's apparent fearlessness and off-message willingness to speak his mind, while horrifying many, have offered a tonic to those who are sick to death of the usual round of sound-bite politicians.

In Nigel Farage In His Own Words, journalist Andrew Liddle offers an entertaining selection of Nigel's most controversial, often laugh-out-loud funny, tell-it-like-it-is bon mots and politically incorrect public utterances, as well as some of the heated responses they have generated.

About the Author: Andrew Liddle is Lead Reporter for The Courier in Dundee. He graduated from the University of St Andrews in 2012 with an MA in modern history, where he was also chairman of the Labour Society. He lives in Dundee.
