Guido Fawkes points out that the urbanite hipster-elite Change UK Party massively outspent the Brexit Party....and still didn't win a seat in the EU elections.
Money isn't everything guys. In fact it doesn't matter as much as the left thinks.
In the 90's Ross Perot and Steve Forbes both spent millions of their own money and lost.
Here in New Jersey, millionaire Doug Forrester spent tens of millions trying to win the governor's mansion and then a senate seat. Nada.
Hillary outspent Trump 2-1. Who won?
The Brexit Party is one, big popular idea. What the hell is Change UK even supposed to be?
In another life Nigel Farage could have been a hell of an ad man, a Don Draper or dare we say, Nick Naylor.
Everywhere in Europe the technocratic elite is in retreat.
Le Penn won in France, Lega and Five Star saw big gains in Italy getting 51% of the vote.
Most importantly Herr Farage and the Brexit party romped getting about 33 percent of the vote and 28 seats. Not bad for a party that was formed a month ago.
Britain just had it's second referendum and Remain lost again. Not that the Remainers will accept that.
But it gets worse for the technos, as the Greens made gains in the elections as well.
The elite are under sustained assault from all sides.
Via Breitbart, Nigel Farage's Brexit Party is getting 35% of the vote in next week's EU election.
If the Stroock Effect still holds, and it held in the Israeli elections, Farage will do even better.*
The Tories, well, who cares?
We've made this point before, May, Cameron, Macron, Hillary! Barry, W, just keep going... they think and act the same. They all went to the same schools. They all wear the same suits. They all go to the gym for the same cardio workout.
Trump, famously, likes Big Macs and Diet Coke.** Herr Farage smokes.
These traits alone are refreshing.
May and company, well, they're our managerial and ruling class. But we doubt they can even change a tire. Just try to imagine Macron trying to change a tire.
These people are incompetent.
*Or is this conservatives having enough and speaking their mind?
**We used to go through a two liter a day. Gave it up and lost five pounds.
