In my experience, things have to get really, really bad before people will consider genuine change. It looks like really, really bad is where we're headed, but at my age I'm not sure I'll live to see the change.

So when Farage rails against the latest migration figures, he's railing against a monster of his own making. The EU didn't impose uncontrolled immigration on us; it offered a framework that reflected geography, economics and realityโ

Media outlets who refuse to describe in plain terms what the president did because they find it objectionable are lying to their audiences and running cover for the president. It's as simple as that.

This will not end well.

Donโt let the frogwater thatโs boiling us alive let you skip over this: we murdered another countryโs citizens in cold blood, and when their leader objected, we called him a drug dealer and cut off aid to his country. Thatโs freakish.
