No sorry Joey, must have gone under my radar, thought you meant hancock failing famously to grasp simple maths over the number of "extra" police that the tories are "promising" to employ. Are you saying that Dianne Abbott is a joke?

How has he taken the news that Johnson and Farage want different Brexits? Talksport covered it in depth for about 15 seconds this afternoon, but other than that, unsure of the reaction amongst their supporters.

i must have underestimated Joey as he is in good company re Brexit not only with that well known Tory Arthur Scargill, but also the Communist Party of GB who are vehement leave advocates....well done comrade !!

Dont listen to right wing jocks if I can help it.....so as far as I can tell, it wasn't that famous.....are politicians not allowed to make mistakes? Or is it because you don't like Dianne Abbott?

Trying to work out whether @catcherintherye or @Joey66 are posting the worst content in the entire thread this morning.

Farage the most talented politician despite failing in cherry-picked seats 7 times. Oh, and his dream of us leaving the EU whole and entire? 30 years (and counting) he's failed at that too. He wasn't even involved in the main Leave campaign as Cummings knew him to be a moron.

@Joey66 -level content dressed up in too many words again.

His central objective hasn't been to win as an MP though.

He has shifted the discourse in the way he has wanted it to go, having inherited a party led by Kilroy. Not only that but he has exerted enough pressure on the Conservatives to adopt his broad outlook.

I oppose the man and his politics. If I'm being objective though, I struggle to think of a more influential politician in the last 15 years.

It was an odd post. Normally agree with a lot of what @catcherintherye says. Farage talks with authority on a single issue subject but put him under any scrutiny and he’s exposed as the ‘pound shop Powell’ that he is.

Thanks buddy.

I don't agree with his objectives and feel his political outlook and message is loathsome. However hes been able to dominate the political direction of the country for the last 5 years (at least) all from a position of not even being an MP.

Don't confuse my begrudging respect for someone's achievements as support for his outlook.
