The possibility of Nigel Farage appearing on I’m a celebrity has gone down like a wriggling witchetty grub

For a couple of days this week, social media had been awash with rumours that serial general election loser Nigel Farage might be going into the jungle on I’m a Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here.

He addressed the issue in a short segment on GB News.

First of all, this pathetic grifter #NigelFarage IS going on I’m A Celeb, the talks he refers to is in relation to the Money (as always) that his agent is negotiating, cause the greedy Toad wants more than is on the table pic.twitter.com/8ozl752E6S

“I am giving it very very serious consideration. Why?

Well, …you’ve got about 10 million young people who watch that programme.

In my mind, if I was to do it, I might be able to connect with that audience.”

What a happy coincidence that, mere months after losing his Coutts account because he’s not rich enough, Mr. Farage is considering reaching out to the kids via a TV programme for which he’d be paid a vast sum of money.

You can, no doubt, imagine the reactions – but you don’t need to because they’re here.

Be good to see him eating bollocks rather than speaking it for a change

I do wonder if revealing his actual personality to the world will be quite the PR coup his supporters imagine it will be. https://t.co/IV4xdQaUFD

They know the revenue from people phoning in to nominate him for trials will be astronomical hence why they keep calling him to do it.

a proposal: we put Nigel Farage in the jungle but don't put the cameras or any other humans there and we just leave him there to fend for himself

"Have we got a pic of Farage yet from the I'm A Celeb team to go with this piece?"

Our options are

A: he takes a safe Tory seat and becomes their next leader; or

B: he shares a hut 9400 miles away with H from Steps and Wincey Willis, constantly showered with cockroaches and a diet of ostrich anus.

Pray to God he goes with Bhttps://t.co/evdh3OnGHa

Mf saying he’s doing it to help the “10 million young people” who watch the show.

We can’t help wondering who might join Farage in the jungle. Rosie Holt had some suggestions.

Nigel Farage might be joining I’m a Celeb omg! Lets put Suella Braverman in the jungle! Let’s put Andrew Tate in the jungle! Let’s put Tommy Robinson in the jungle! Let’s put Nazi Fred in the jungle! Let’s put dead Hitler in the jungle! Let’s put
