State Pension age to rise to 68 for 5m Britons years earlier than expected. Many physically won't be able to work. Longer NHS queues. Many won't live long enough to draw the pension, wealth transferred to the rich who live longer. Cull of the working class. Rich can retire whenever they want.

“We have sacrificed our national success because of our fear of immigration. And now, if Farage has his way, we'll do it all over again” Superb, important analysis of the profound harm Farage does to our country in his rabidly racist and egotistical bid for power liveapp.inews.co.uk/category/407...
iPaper headline:

Photo of Farage speaking with small boat photo superimposed 

WHO BROKE BRITAIN?
Farage's great project is to destroy the country he claims to love

Extract:

THE EFFECT ON BRITAIN
Farage has taken the demon in Powell's 1968 speech and used it to undermine Britain in 2025. He has the same currency as his hero and trades in the same goods.
He is defined by hatred toward minorities. It could be that person on the train speaking a foreign language, or that bloke next door who might be Romanian, or the Polish plumber who came to fix the sink, or the desperate young man who made it over on a boat.
He will make those people's lives a misery. He will make them afraid.
He will make them feel unwelcome.
He will turn this country's instinct towards decency around so that it is replaced by antipathy.
Every time we follow him down this path, we become poorer and more miserable, tarnishing our own wellbeing through our devotion to his political goal. Minorities suffer because of Farage. But Britain suffers most of all.
