Farage: not just a bottlejob, but hates his own country too. That should be him finished here.
You’re delusional if you think that .
If he loves the UK so much why is he turning his back on it to go and further his own personal interests in the US?

Is 'Honorary President' a title given only to arseholes?
It's almost as if he's drawing particular attention to the letters, NF. He's winking at his far right mates and laughing at the rest of us.

Is he? I was only going by the video. I don't know anything else about him.

He needs PayPal to fund his full time activist career as unlike the environmental types he is unfortunate not to have a Trust fund.

Fund his career as an activist? He just hangs around outside Parliament being a pain in the arse.

Unsure if this is a WUM or not.

I already know what I'm going to hate most about this election campaign. I'm sat here now watching breakfast news, and it's clear that news broadcasters are going to lean heavily on vox pops with members of the public giving their thicko opinions on all and sundry.

FFS. They should just get the presenters to read out a few posts from here everyday.

I'm watching Keir Starmer's speech at the moment where he's currently addressing the Scottish people . I have to say his speech is quite impressive . I think Labour are going to batter the SNP at this election

That would make the SNP more appealing to the Scottish though?

They love batter

Whatever else anyone may think about Starmer and Labour, their careful navigation of the Brexit issue looks to be working.

Labour relying on the unemployed and students shock! The thing with this though, is that the unemployed and students just do not tend to vote, regardless of how they respond to polls.

The Tories just managing to hold on to half of homeowners who do not have a mortgage. Which, to be fair, is substantial proportion and will be well represented at the polls on the day. But all others are turning their backs on them.
