Nigel Farage tells it like it is – Europe is by no means a democracy – it’s run by big banks, big business, and big bureaucrats. There is no actual democratic movement.

When Larry Summers stood up and called for Negative Interest rates, people were shocked. However, such stunts are all coordinated.
