Farage doubles down on Ukraine comments after Sunak and Starmer condemned Reform UK leader
Nigel Farage has doubled down on his claims that the West provoked Russia's invasion of Ukraine after he was slammed by rivals Rishi Sunak and Sir Keir Starmer for the comments.

He really seems to think this pro-Russia strategy will work well for his party at the voting booth.
I doubt it will push his party above the 20% they are currently polling at.

I have heard the "the West forced Russia to invade Ukraine" bullshit even here on Lemmy.
A country can't force a second country who is in opposition to them to invade a third country. That's just not how anything works.

Either he is the great English Everyman and the UK’s population backs Russia, or he isn’t, and hard Brexit is not the Will Of The People.

Something will have to give.
