He must be good at something though? He's had 3 wives, 2 of whom are Russian and 1 Danish, and wife no 2 says that he was unfaithful to her when they were together. He then left wife no 3 for Jo Marney and although he claimed to have split up from her, they've been seen out together "holding hands" very recently. Now... Adonis he 'ain't, so what's the attraction? confused personally, he makes my skin crawl

Jalima now where have we heard that phrase before??

Jalima1108 Mon 22-Jan-18 23:06:23

Actually, that's probably wrong!

According to the news, Henry Bolton wants to drain the swamp in the party.
Has he thought of resigning and doing it in one go?

Hee-hee Jalima ( a rash)
I heard that Bolton had an OBE ( or MBE) and that his third wife and children live in Austria, not here.
He can hardly continue with no confidence in him.....or can he? Corbyn managed it after all!
I wonder if Farage will take up the reins of power yet again?
Never say never.grin

I have been wondering what any of them see in him, as far as I'm concerned there is nothing appealing whatsoever. And don't answer 'power' grin

In fact, I had never heard of him until I read about him on a thread on GN - I think he must have been appointed leader when I was away and he hasn't exactly made his presence felt, unlike Farage who was everywhere like a rash.

His wife must be watching with a degree of satisfaction, I'm sure. I would be.

Well, he certainly has to be up there for the nomination of 'Crash & Burn of the Year'.

Wonder what his wife is making of it all
A significant divorce settlement, hopefully!

Chewbacca Mon 22-Jan-18 22:25:43

I think he's having a major mid life crisis!
Leave lovely wife and children - tick
Take up with young woman old enough to be his daughter - tick
Make a complete imbecile of himself - tick
Refuse to accept when he's burnt his boats and can't go back - tick

Wonder what his wife is making of it all?

I think that he is desperately clinging on to the leadership because he knows that that is what she is interested in. Not him. She will be off as soon as he is given the boot.

Not much to add to that Mawboon what a completely undesirable dickhead
And he’s little

MawBroon Mon 22-Jan-18 22:08:24

There’s no fool like an old fool.is there?
Who does this man think he is fooling?
I won’t say exactly where I think he keep his brains but it’s roughly in the underpants area and I think it is absolutely incredible that he somehow believes he can still lead that apology for a party which is UKIP.
Plus, frankly, does he convince anybody as a romantic figure?
