“There is Always Hope” – Nigel Farage Rallies the PBCTP
Posted by Fred Scheibl on May 9, 2021 · 6 Comments
On a sunny Saturday afternoon, the Tea Party grassroots gathered upstairs at the Stadium Grill in Abacoa to hear from Brexit mastermind Nigel Farage.
Introduced by CL Bryant, who reminded us that “When the government fears the people that is Liberty, when the people fear the government that is Tyranny”, this event was part of a FreedomWorks sponsored multi-city tour that is bringing the lessons of Brexit to the USA.
Brexit is now a done deal. After a clear victory at the ballot box, it took years to actually make it happen as Britain’s equivalent of our “deep staters” dragged their feet and placed obstacle after obstacle in its way. For Nigel Farage, it was a 30 year journey. From his position as a member of the European Parliament, he argued, cajoled and organized his way to a stunning victory in June of 2016, when British voters chose to “Leave” the European Union by a 4% margin. In October of that year, then Prime Minister Theresa May invoked Article 50, formally giving notice of Britain’s intent to leave the EU. It was not a done deal though until the end of 2020.
The globalist institutional powers, including governments and the media were overwhelmingly opposed to the idea and heaped ridicule on the concept and on its proponents. Nigel though, proved that grassroots can have the final say if they are organized and the cause is just. In our country, the same sorts of elite, globalist opposition derided the candidacy of Donald Trump, and used every tool in their extensive toolbox to thwart his election. Just like with Brexit, the unlikely outcome was achieved, narrowly yet decisively.
In Nigel’s view, the comparison goes farther. Because of our History (revolution and war of 1812 notwithstanding), we have a closer affinity with Britain than any other country. We have similar organizing principles and value liberty. The history of the European Union is one of usurping the power and sovereignty of its member states in favor of a central bureaucracy, much like the power of the individual and of the states has been eroded in the US by our enormous bloated federal government.
With the results of the flawed 2020 election, we are now saddled with an “Empire Strikes Back” situation, yet as Nigel said several times, there is always hope to sustain us. The most important rallying issue in Brexit was uncontrolled immigration into the EU and by extension, into the UK itself. Leaving the EU was seen by some as the only answer. As our own border is being swamped by unheard of numbers of undocumented migrants, truckloads of illegal drugs, and cartel controlled human trafficking, the Biden Administration will be held to account if we all work together.
Nigel became the face of Brexit and made it happen through will and determination. We can do the same with Donald Trump and the MAGA agenda.
There is always hope.
Great Job. Wonderful message. NEVER GIVE UP!
Excellent advice from Nigel’s own experience in dealing with opposition:
First they ignore you.
Then they laugh at you.
Next they attack you.
And that’s when you win.
What a terrific presentation from CL Bryant & Nigel Farage on short notice Saturday!
Kudos to Tea Party & FreedomWorks!
I am new to the meetings but it would really be great to move the meetings to a dedicated meeting room ASAP!
Stadium Grill is just too small & the noise from the downstairs bar made it tough to hear such great speakers.
Now that CL Bryant has moved to Florida, lets start a “Draft CL Movement” & convince him to run in the upcoming Special Election for Congressional District 20! I know its a big leftist minority district but CL could break thru with his amazing public speaking skills & passionate faith in God!

CL and Nigel were great. Very good messages stating though we face challenges, we do have the ability to overcome. Seek God! Stand firm! Be tenacious! Yes – There is always hope.
I am interested in meeting with individuals who seek a way to push back against the Biden theft of our Presidency. I have a plan that will take 20 minutes of your time. Will you meet with me in Palm Beach area?
