For Lovetopaint and that "do people read . . .". The circulation of the papers has plummeted over 20 years, people talking about the influence of the Press are way out of touch.

Farage isn't as unpopular as some folk think, else he'd have been voted off that wretched 'reality' (haha) show earlier. But he's not won a UK election, just wangled himself a cushy number as an MEP. As for an alliance with BoJo, well, could those 2 egos get in the same room? I'll believe it when we see it.

Corbyn let us all down over his lukewarm attitude to the EU and refusal to appear on the same Remain platform as Blair. Good riddance.

Farage isn’t as popular as some people think either. Who was third on I’m a Celebrity last year? It was Matt Hancock.

I have to agree JenniferEccles he saved the U.K. from a Labour Government lead by Mr.Corbyn

Blimey- I am NO Corbyn fan- but not even he could have made such a mess and caused so much destruction, loss of respect, and such massive debts, as those in last decade.

I can’t imagine being an awful enough person to want that.
