Further blow to Farage as Wetherspoons Tim Martin won’t back him

In Uncategorized on June 30, 2024 by kmflett

Far right disrupter Nigel Farage is probably best known for appearing in a Wetherspoons pub, pint in hand. Indeed he launched his campaign in Clacton doing just that. Leave aside that Farage prefers fine wines and G&Ts, its an image he has long promoted.

Tim Martin of Wetherspoons has previously appeared on platforms with Farage as a supporter of Brexit. However the Telegraph (29th June) has reported that this time Tim Martin is not backing any party. Martin claims that he only backed Farage and Johnson on Brexit and has never voted Tory.

Given the likely outcome of the Election it is a prudent business move but its another blow for Farage’s trouble strewn campaign
