I followed Nigel Farage on and off for 10 years.

When all's said and done about his standing in Clacton, milkshake incident etc, he remains at the end of the day one of the most repugnant shameless liars in UK history.

Some of his standout lesser-known lies I've compiled FTR 🧵

@RMcElhenney The Gang Make a Beautiful Butterfly.

@RMcElhenney @PMullin7 In a recent game, he scored and instead of celebrating ran to the net to get the ball back to go again. Commitment.

@WrexhamAFCTampa @fearlessidzine @Wrexham_AFC Great goal - great attitude picking the ball up to go again.

@LondonEconomic It’s still on their page.

@partypirate We have about 100 for the acoustic set.

@theipaper @iburrell Except Humanities and Media courses are being cut across the country at all levels.

The wife feels lonely and sad, but the husband has no idea why. They love each other but don't like each other anymore.

This is by far the most common married couple who comes to me for help. And there's a specific reason this is happening.

Here's the reason:

[Benjamin Carlson @bfcarlson]

How do you incubate a mind virus? How do you cause a culture to self-destruct? In 1984, this KGB defector exposed the 4-stages identified by Soviet intelligence as the necessary steps to cause the psychological implosion of American society.

Stage 1: Demoralization (15–20 yrs)

@NTLive Is this live in Llandudno tonight?

[Dr Stephen C. Kenyon-Owen @oozelumbird]

@_JessicaDavies So he’s saying that men can’t be in control of their emotions and urges and therefore shouldn’t be in positions of power or influence?

[Campaign for the Arts @_CFTA]

We are dismayed that Birmingham, the UK’s second city, will lose almost all its council funding for the arts over the next 2 years.

Defunding the arts will harm quality of life, exacerbate inequalities & set back economic recovery.

It will only make our problems worse.

@NTLive I’m thinking of seeing this in Venue Cymru - is it a live show or pre-recorded?

[Dr Laura Eastlake @VictorianMasc]

In Bram Stoker’s Dracula (1897), Dr Seward’s journals are famously ‘Kept in Phonograph’. Join me for a nerdy deep dive in which I, brandishing back-of-an-envelope math, calculate the cost of Seward's phonograph habit, & encounter a creature more uncanny than Dracula himself! 1/13

@notDcfcBoss I have worked with someone incredibly similar.

[Scarred for Life @ScarredForLife2]

TAKE THE RIGHT STEPS (1985): Stepladder safety PIF, rightly legendary for the shot of a burly stuntman in an Aunt May wig going for a burton into a glass display cabinet. And that's Bill 'Compo' Owen on V.O. duties!
