Allison Pearson said Nigel Farage was more of a patriot than Keir Starmer will ever be and of all the A++ comebacks this person surely said it best
To the world now of Allison Pearson, the once upon a time Late Show favourite (one for younger readers there) turned Daily Telegraph columnist and much, much else besides.
We mention her because Pearson reckons Nigel Farage is more of a patriot than Keir Starmer will ever be. Here’s what she had to say about the Reform UK leader.
Nigel Farage has more patriotism in his ring finger than Keir Starmer has in his whole desiccated, globalist, Davos-loving being.
The people know which political leader is for the British – and it’s not Starmer! @Nigel_Farage @reformparty_uk— Allison Pearson (@AllisonPearson) September 8, 2025
And while it prompted no end of entirely on-point replies …
Yeah, so patriotic he flew to another country’s legislature to go have a big old moan about the UK while wearing his corporate sponsor’s pin.

How do you deal with shit like this?
Farage's behaviour is very clear. He works to benefit himself and his paymasters. His actions are and have been anti-British for years. Yet still clowns like this have this viewpoint.
It's incredible. Not a critical thought or braincell. https://t.co/12eKf1xMYi

That is misquoted. It’s pro patriotism

No, it's not.
The quote criticises false patriotism, by suggesting that it can be a tool for demagogues and corrupt individuals to gain support by playing on people's emotions and national loyalty when they have no other credible arguments or legitimate claims.
That is Farage.— Kenny (@piltonjambo) September 8, 2025

He hasnt been speaking up for the British people and Britain though, stop chatting nonsense. Every chance he gets hes out on some TV channel telling everybody how awful Britain is.
