Let’s check in on Nigel Farage, shall we? Poor dear hasn’t had much coverage lately.
Hot on the heels of his recent appearance before the US Congress, awkward questions about his house, being snubbed by King Charles and claiming migrants are eating swans, Farage has landed on a new cause.
The National Trust has put vegan tampons in men’s toilets. God help us.

His tweet reads:
“The National Trust has put vegan tampons in men’s toilets. God help us.”
This would appear to be a reference to a story in the Daily Mail (where else?), where an elderly man was “confused” to find the products in the men’s toilets at the National Trust-owned Sizergh Castle in the Lake District.
Farage’s protestation certainly got attention online – a lot of it from people jumping in to have some fun, as well as to point out that the Reform UK leader might be trying to divert attention away from another, erm, tricky news cycle for the party.

No, actually it was one toilet you old, out of touch man.
It was in a male toilet and likely for vulnerable people that identify as men but still have periods. Where’s the issue?
It was installed by an organisation that also provides products to help people with prostate…

“Hey Nigel… quick one but the media are getting a bit noisy about the Nathan Gill/ Russia stuff… Are you able to just chuck out a tweet about trans people and The National Trust or something? Probably worth chucking in a ‘vegan’ too for good measure… yeah, cheers boss.” https://t.co/9uQMFeXVI3

Hey Nigel, we’ve had durex machines in women’s toilets for years.
What’s your point?
