In the case of the Rivenhall Hotel, those staying there were moved after his visit and the place is now facing financial ruin. At the Britannia Daresbury in Cheshire, the less than tolerant For Britain party demonstrated outside. The usual claims about designer trainers, iPhones, handouts and attacks on locals followed close behind.
But when Nige arrived at the Mercure Woodhey House Hotel in Ellesmere Port, he got it completely wrong. That may be why he is not advertising the video of the visit on his Twitter feed. But the enterprising people at Cheshire Live have provided a transcript.
“Witnesses say he did not even get out of the car … Mr Farage said in the video as he pulled up outside the Mercure: ‘You don’t have to travel very far around the North West to get hotel after hotel that is closed. And one of the reasons I’m doing this - I want people to get a handle on the sheer scale of what is going on here … So here we are - classic with all the others we’ve seen - car park completely, all the bedroom windows open, which means people are there. They’re in’” Classic totally made up, more like.
“Cheshire Live has visited the site and the occupants themselves confirmed everyone was homeless including one young woman from Northwich who said she lost her home in a house fire”. Justin Madders, the local MP, who also spoke to those at the hotel, and others, told “We had a meeting with the council and residents about the Mercure last night and whilst there are issues, there was no suggestion from anyone that ‘illegal immigrants’ were staying there. Fake news from what I can see”. Farage caught with trousers alight!
There was also a quote from the local council: “Cheshire West and Chester Council is only using the Woodhey House Hotel in Ellesmere Port to accommodate homeless households”. Nigel Farage got this one totally wrong. So where is the prominently displayed retraction and apology on his Twitter feed? Oh dear, there isn’t one.
Nigel Farage - closing down the leisure sector one hotel at a time. What a complete shit.

You can guarantee there's one city in the north west Flap Lip won't "visit" (unless incognito).
ReplyDeleteBecause he'd be run out by the seat of his kecks inside five minutes.
He's right most of the time, unlike some . .. ...
ReplyDelete@16:25.
ReplyDeleteWrong.
He's FAR right. Like all racist tory gammon cunts.
So what if an otherwise empty hotel is housing asylum seekers? 'You're wrong, these are our own home grown homeless, none of those invading foreigners!' I'd confront Farage on his basic campaign rather than him getting it 'wrong' in one particular case.
ReplyDeleteFarage is not a Tory, and the most successful politician of his era, Blair excepted.
ReplyDeleteFarage - What a complete shit.
ReplyDeleteAint that the truth.

ReplyDeleteYou're lying again: Brexit party: Farage seeks election pact with Conservatives https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2019/sep/08/brexit-party-farage-seeks-election-pact-with-conservatives
Farage is the most succesful politician of his era to the same extent that Jim Jones was the most successful of his.
Farage isn't fit to lace Enoch Powell's steel toe-capped boots. And Powell was a complete cunt.
ReplyDelete"designer trainers, iPhones, handouts" Always a favorite of the Asylum Seeker Hate Mob who must think these desperate folk visit the Louis Vuitton and Gucci Boutiques in Paris on their way through rather than the dozens of markets and street stalls selling cheap knock-offs.
