That is so horrible and he is visibly so upset about it still.

You’re right really, horseshoe. I’m sure there was a not perfect, definitely could be improved, but not too dreadful past. Mad times.

The UK is losing up to £250m a day in lost tax revenue due to the economic impact of Brexit, House of Commons Library analysis for the Lib Dems suggests.

Brexit has blown a "black hole of [up to] £90 billion a year in the public finances" the party says. Even under lower estimates the hit is ~£65bn

He’s not really the most reliable and truthful of people. After all, he did say he would leave the country if Brexit was a failure and he is still here, the weasel.

The truth behind Reform UK’s reckless budget £25bn of imagined savings, real-world cruelty and mathematics that should come with a trigger warning

“The £25bn savings plan1 that they were flogging at last week’s event, with all the grievance filled outrage we’ve come to expect from each episode of this ever-running series, was done under the auspices of giving Rachel Reeves some ideas ahead of this month’s autumn budget.”

New: Boris Johnson’s ‘Brexit Titanic success’ was half right Nearly ten years on, the first full assessment of Brexit confirms what millions warned: Britain made itself poorer

Brexit has made the UK economy 6%–8% smaller than it would have been if we had stayed in the EU. That is £165bn-£225bn a year, meaning a loss to the government budget of around £65bn to £90bn a year.

Imagine what Reeves could do with that kind of money.

If you think you can trust Farage to run the country, just listen to him lie about Brexit and the "Norway Option".

Quite a daft thing for him to say, when there is a lot of evidence to the contrary.

Well now. Calling someone a rude, childish name is more respectful than not doing so. I honestly did not know that.

I heard Rory Stewart saying on the radio, that it was mostly the Tories’ fault for their hopeless mismanagement of the prison service.

Farage “boasts of the time he “lost a seven-figure sum of money in the course of a morning on the zinc market” before breezing off to the pub. He waxes nostalgic about the halcyon days of freewheeling finance, before “ghastly regulators” spoiled the fun;“

He’s a life long grifter with no serious ideas. All this, all this Brexit stuff probably just started as a way to get attention. And the country fell for it.

He is utterly foul, but maybe it was harder being Charles’s actual brother. I don’t think William would have hesitated to cut him off though.

I always felt that it showed Charles’s extreme naivety due to his very sheltered upbringing. 🤷‍♀️

Yes, definitely, he is already making noises in that direction.

The path from abusing foreigners to abusing the disabled is well-trodden. I I hope this nugget is bright enough to reflect on who else has walked it.

So very true! He’s moved on from Brexit, to the ECHR - I wouldn’t be surprised if he tries to reintroduce the death penalty after that. He is a malignancy.

Jaywick named most deprived area - again

A seaside neighbourhood in Essex, part of the parliamentary constituency represented by Reform UK leader Nigel Farage, has once again been named the most deprived in England.
The latest official data showed that an area of the coastal village of Jaywick, close to the town of Clac-ton-on-Sea in the local authority of Tendring, has been classed the most deprived neighbourhood for the fourth time.
Areas of Blackpool again make up most of the rest of the top 10, along with new appearances for neighbour-hoods in Hastings and Rotherham.

Yesterday's data, published by the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government (MHCLG), presented relative levels of deprivation in areas or neighbourhoods of England in 2025.
The data highlighted "the scale of the challenge" but does not "reflect the progress made since 2019 or the strength of the people who call Jay-wick Sands home"
, the Tendring
District Council website said.
MHCLG said Middlesbrough, Birmingham, Hartlepool, Kingston upon Hull and Manchester had the highest proportions of neighbour-hoods among the most deprived in England.

Nigel Farage has revealed he is earning well over a £1m a year from work he does outside parliament, in addition to his job as an MP.
It is thought his outside income is significantly higher than that of any other member of parliament.

Compare and contrast.
Absentee MP -v- his constituency.
Greedy grifting spiv -v- most deprived English neighbourhood.
He really couldn’t give a shit.
He feeds off the inequality and anger to line his own pockets. He doesn’t want solutions because the problems are his income stream.
