It is infinitely better for my country if yours has him as a citizen.
I mean, I agree entirely that he is a fascistic shit of the worst sort and no sane country would want him.
But Brexit was achieved by shameless lies from shameless liars. If we want to stop Brexit becoming effective the only hope is not merely to expose their lies, but to flay them for all to see.
Nigel Farage campainging for Brexit and then taking German citizenship to avoid the effects is the one thing that cautious, pragmatic Remainer Teresa May (whom I dislike on almost every axis) could use to cancel Leave.
I agree he's a horrible person and I wouldn't (didn't, don't) want him as a fellow countryman either. But if it could turn back Brexit...
