WESTMINSTER, ENGLAND—Globalist journalist Nick Robinson’s interview with Nigel Farage, which aired on Friday, colored days three and four on the campaign trail in the United Kingdom. In the discussion, Farage stated the obvious about NATO and the European Union’s saber-rattling in Ukraine over the past 15 times, which culminated in the Russian invasion of the Eastern European country under Joe Biden’s watch.

What should be an indictment of the D.C.-Westminster-Brussels political class, however, has become a cudgel by which to beat Farage, with almost every major political, media, and society figure lambasting the Reform Party leader over the past 48 hours and calling his rhetoric “pro-Putin.”

The charge is preposterous, but the British public writ large lacks critical detail on the topic, with an almost total mainstream media blackout on any criticisms of Volodymyr Zelensky and his apparatus. Most broadcast personalities and even “right-leaning” Conservative Party figures have sought to portray Farage as “fringe” rather than prescient in his views.

On the campaign trail in Clacton, the parliamentary district where Farage is standing for election, the topic was the subject of equivocation. While likely Reform Party voters understood Farage’s position, they still predominantly blamed Vladimir Putin and Russia as the original aggressors in the conflict.

On the doors and in the pubs, people in the area seem optimistic about Farage’s election chances but are broadly lethargic about their nation’s politics in general. This creates a dangerous situation for Farage’s campaign, as his likeliest voters are the least likely to vote. The apparatus around him is small, and there are just 11 days left until Britain heads to the polls.

Ever the retail politicians, Farage’s message is focused on causing an upset to the country’s political class, which electing him as a Member of Parliament would certainly inflict. But despite his party returning a number of massive polling results, their expected seat-count in the parliament of 650 members remains sub-10 due to how thinly the Reform vote is split across the UK.

And Farage himself is spread thinner than ever, with a small team of aides and national travel schedule to contend with, it is not yet a certainty that he will be chosen as Clacton’s Member of Parliament. They will need the winds at their back between now and July 4th.
