To be fair to Liz Truss, these costs from Reform are over the course of a year, whereas Luz Truss achieved her figures in only 50 days. Imagine the harm she could have achieved given a full year. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would hope that increased scrutiny as an MP (if he gets there) would highlight links with Russia, and there are questions to answer for sure. But this may be wishful thinking, as I am sure he will continue to ensure there is a big enough media circus to drown out meaningful questions. But being suspected as an agent of a foreign power as an MP is surely more serious than being a useful idiot to one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boris Johnson You’ll get away with pretty much anything if the media think you’re fun. Even giving your own security the slip so you can meet up with ex KGB.

All the stuff with Evgeny Lebedev is pure Russophibia though, says a prominent member of the House of Lords.... ...Alexander Lebedev. I did enjoy the letter from him to Private Eye though that eschewed the usual "Dear Sir" in favour of "Dear Racist word removed" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post mjmooney Posted June 18 VT Supporter Popular Post Share Posted June 18 11 minutes ago, sidcow said: I would bet you can find some comment or quote from Farage stating that the Union Flag colours should not be messed with. Quote Nigel Farage said he was “dead against” making changes to the Union flag as he intervened in the Team GB merchandise row. The former Brexit Party leader claimed changes to national symbols were “deliberate” and designed to make people feel “ashamed” of being British. His remarks came after the British Olympic Association vowed to stick with tradition for the official Paris 2024 kit following a backlash against its sale of “Union Jack pattern” merchandise in different colour shades.

Well yes but I suspect that the sign is bollocks. Like I said, its nowhere near where he was and Farage likes getting milkshakes getting thrown at him because it allows him to play the victim card. I mean if you really wanted to throw some liquid at farage I'm sure you'd be able to find something suitable in the Gurnos Stores, Greggs of the Gurnos Fish Bar (good chippy btw) literally next door to the Gurnos Club Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re right about Farage too, he’s desperately hoping to be hit with a milkshake from someone with dark skin. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
