Nigel Farage will get compensation for losing his EU job – the only 14 reactions you need to read
Despite having the worst attendance record in the European Parliament, a large number of UKIP MEPs turned up for a meeting in Strasbourg. It didnt go unnoticed.

Thats right – the party that wouldnt turn up to defend the rights of the UK fishing industry they claim to support was out in force to make sure they got the maximum amount of money from the organisation theyve campaigned to leave. You stay classy, UKIP.
Now, the results of the meeting are in the public domain, and you may find it sticks in the craw a little – or a lot.
Nigel Farage is to receive a payment of £150,000 as compensation for "losing" his job as an MEP.

Obviously, anyone in this position with a scintilla of integrity couldnt countenance taking the money. https://t.co/5Olqkp03Tu

I'm sure this money will be directed at a charity for assisting young people with job seeking given he's removed opportunities from them. Let's demand that. RT if you agree? https://t.co/2PGoBcvjpu

Some UKIP MEPs haven't been to work since 2016. Many of them in line for one off 6 figure payments and free health insurance for them and their families for life. It's called the "divorce bill" the thing @Nigel_Farage doesn't want us to pay – why not surrender your share Nigel? https://t.co/va2kbghfsm
