The @BBCOne not including @Nigel_Farage in their leaders debate smacks of London-elite snobbery: a world of thin-skinned folk who worry about what others think. Can you imagine the BBC meetings discussing his inclusion?? Would anyone be ballsy enough to say that he should be brought in and risk the water cooler gossip??!
And this is exactly why he, and @reformparty_uk are gaining popularity.
Like so much in this funny little country, it's about social class.
'Normal people,' mainly outside of London, have had enough of being bossed around and infantalised.
Just like Brexit - these people are not 'racist' - they are feeling poor, powerless and hopeless.
Nigel might be a privately-educated ex-banker who wears red trousers but he's oddly classless : at home on a pheasant shoot or having a fag outside the pub. He doesn't patronise. Watch him, even in interviews: he listens.
There's a saying in psychology that angry people need either space to calm down or to be quickly heard. Given the anger in the UK, voters want space from the political elite and to be heard...to millions, he is the only one listening.
@Is83Gun @SoNowUknow2 I don't know about Harrods so I can't comment but the man who invented the guitar was an American/German Christian and ancient babylonians where the first ones to to use algebra 1900 BC.
