Not all, the most successful politician in history is Nigel Farage, he achieved his aim.

[drmorgans]

 

So has Farage finished politicking?

 

[ToraToraTora]

I don't know but he has achived his ultimate aim already. No other politician in history can say that.

I wonder if a "high-functioning alcoholic" is a requirement under the Labour Party's selection process ?

[ichkeria]

Other people achieved his aim 🙄. Most of the time Farage was losing elections

A slapped Rist!

All minor / protest parties inevitably lose out at general elections - the Greens have substantial support in the country but next to zero representation at Westminster.LibDems are under-represented,

Our electoral system is unfair & undemocratic.

All credit to Nigel that he could achieve his goal notwithstanding.

18:36 He did not need to win elections. Politics is trying to achieve your am by any means. He did that, end of.
