St George's Day - Fighting Bull

What we require is the LOVE UNION not the Europeans Union as more and more lose their jobs in Europe. In recent years Nigel Farage has made a powerful entry on the world scene and there is still time left to purchase his book and read it before the UK election in May.

Today, is St George's Day, the patron Saint of England and so it is a good day to honour Nigel Farage for defending the people of the UK and Europe against the oppressors. His book is called 'Fighting Bull'  and as we know the bull is an animal that is symbolic of God.

Nigel Farage is a founder member of the UK Independence Party, which was established in September 1993. He is the Member of the European Parliament for the South East region and is the leader of the parliamentary party in the EU parliament.

Here is the text from Nigel discussing his book on amazon. 

I did not enter politics out of philanthropy but rather as an extension of my own annoyance and resentment at having inherited freedoms infringed by power-crazed idiots spouting gibberish. 

It gives me particular pleasure, then, to know that we have empowered many others and caused them too to doubt the authority whereby such people presume to grant us rights where we can manage perfectly well with innate freedoms. In an age of colourless bureaucrats, Nigel Farage is a politician you are unable to ignore, provoking controversy and admiration in equal measure. 

What cannot be denied is the effect he has had on British and European politics. A fun-loving iconoclast whose motto is work hard and play harder , Farage s charismatic leadership and determination to battle the forces of anti-libertarianism have made him a Robin Hood figure to many, and propelled his party, UKIP, into a position of real power in the country. Told with Farage s customary wit and humour, Fighting Bull is a thoroughly engaging look at an extraordinary life, including the spills a near fatal car accident and surviving testicular cancer and the thrills a boisterous boyhood in London and a career as a City trader, to battling bureaucracy in Europe and defending the nations hard-won freedoms against erosion from without and within. 

His account of his journey into the Brussels labyrinth is compelling. The book tells of loyalty and treachery in his own ranks and of his struggle to overcome media preconceptions. It features sometimes hilarious and often terrifying encounters with a stellar supporting cast, including Tony Blair, Gordon Brown, Nicolas Sarkozy, José Manuel Barroso, and UKIP s short-lived, silver-gilt mascot Robert Kilroy-Silk. 

In September 2009 Nigel Farage announced he would stand against John Bercow, the newly elected Speaker of the House of Commons, in his Buckingham constituency in the next election, despite a modern convention that the speaker is not challenged for re-election. Fighting Bull is a candid, colourful life story by a fascinating and controversial character. It also shows that one fearless, determined individual can still make a difference.

God bless him and his party
