As much as I hate to fight his corner, I don’t think we should really be pulling people up for things they said as children, especially four(?) decades ago.
Children are idiots. Teenagers especially.
Farage has plenty of nasty friends, nasty ideas and nasty actions to focus on, I’m worried that all this kind of thing will do is distract from that stuff.
I think the point is more that we can compare the things he says and does now to the things he said and did as a kid. Use that to point out that he still has the same thinking now as a used to, he hasn’t improved with time.
See Stephen Miller in US. He was a xenophobic hate filled teenager and now he’s a xenophobic hate filled teenager with ultimate authority running a US ethnic progrom.
Often these teens just learn not to say what they believe aloud.
