Reform UKs Nigel Farage has followed up on Zia Yusuf's Flag War with Monica Fogarty, CEO of Warwickshire Council, suggesting that she should look for another job.
Nigel Farage posted a video to X with a short statement:
The CEO of Warwickshire County Council is refusing to take down the trans flag.
This unelected bureaucrat thinks she knows better than the people.
Perhaps Monica Fogarty should look for a new job.
Nigel Farage said in his video:
So who runs the country? Is it elected politicians, or is it the bureaucrats and the civil servants? Well, this is interesting. In Warwickshire, we became the biggest party in the county elections. We're now leading a minority administration.
And in line with our promises, we told the council not to fly the pride flag, not to fly the Ukraine flag, not to fly the little symbols, just British flags or indeed Warwickshire's county flag. The Chief Executive who owns over £200,000 a year, miss Monica Fogarty, who previously worked in the race relations industry, no shock there, has said, I'm afraid I will not be taking the action that you are requesting. So we've won. We're in charge of a council, yet a highly paid CEO bureaucrat is telling us that she will decide what flags we fly, that she will disobey any orders that we give her. I'm guessing this is a test bed for what'll happen when we win the next general election.
Be in no doubt we're gonna fight back and fight hard. And as for miss Fogarty, I think it's time she looked for a new job, don't you?
