Comments by "John Brereton" (@johnbrereton5229) on "the fish rots from the head down farage" video.
This quote is well known in England and goes back to at least to Sir James Porter who quoted it in 1768. However, it probably originates with the 13th century Turkish Poet Jalal Rumi from his book; 'The Third Book of Masnavi'. It is however not supposed to be taken literally, it merely means the rot starts at the top. Looking at the fall of Britain, you only have to look at our current Government to realise that Farage was correct to quote it. We are being governed by the dregs rather than the elite !
