    I did mention this yesterday. Tory MP’s are getting P’d with The EU behaviour. Don’t worry Watford this little island will be okay.

    Cameron seems like the obvious one. Corbyn too. Neither positive influences in the end but influences nonetheless. Probably Blair too within that arbitrary timeframe.

    Don’t go full UKIP moron ffs.

    Brexit is done Ellers, get over it, we have a divorce...stop worrying about what the ex-wife is doing and get on with your/our own life.

    Today is a bright new Brexitty day, you are right our little sovereign island will be OK. Just ignore the noisy neighbour and do get on with it, just like we were told too, and we were told everything is back in our power...so lets just move on

    Corbyn! That anti-Semitic muppet who calls terrorists ‘Brothers’? I don’t think so.
    Blair! That war criminal who stitched up our troops by sending them into an unnecessary war ill equipped. Then lied about it after? I don’t think so.
    Cameron is the best of the 3 but what did he do? Went over to the EU for a simple request, came back cap in hand, ( I bet they are kicking themselves now). called a referendum supported the losing side then quit? Not yet but maybe in the future.
    Like him or not you won’t find a more influential political figure in the last 20 years.
    They did this on LBC where many well known political bods discussed this. They all said it was Farage.

    Sorry Beth I am replying to a post on the politics thread. Is it now a crime to discuss Brexit on here?

    You’ve spent most of this year telling people who dare point out the negative consequences to “move on”.

    It was actually an interesting show. They mentioned some of your suggestions but they seemed a bit toxic with the public. Farage is like Marmite. He does have a few good points. I doubt I would ever vote for a party of his though.

    I did. Move on from the old arguments of leave/remain. I think you will find that my posts have been of recent events (border tw2ts). Besides I was replying to a post of yours which was also current I don’t see why Beth needed to post what she did? Strange.

    personal insults tut tut, please explain where I have made it about race? I just wonder what the objections are to Hamilton you’ve already admitted that the tax thing is a deliberate attempt to mislead, ive then demonstrated that it can’t be his activism, as others are activists, unless you are against anti racism which I can’t believe so what is it? And why are people lying about their reasons unless their reasons are unsavoury?

    Ive said with Farage time will tell, as to whether he is a force for good or not, he has some controversial moments as I’ve demonstrated with being successfully sued for telling porkies about an anti hate group. Maybe hold back till the dust has settled? Not jump in image if they’d given one to Blair and then found out about certain war crimes.

    It was Iain Dale who is one of the most even sided presenters on that station... actually around all media. It wasn’t that self-opinionated tw2t James O Brian if that’s what you are saying.

    Anyone surprised by that response? Anyone? I mentioned no names. There are more than two presenters on LBC by the way

    Iain Dale is one of the most neutral people in the entire media. Tremendous.

    Can’t be the same Iain Dale who was a member of the Conservative party and was convicted for assault can it?

    I only know 2 as there was a change around. There is also that Nick ferriair fella who seems decent enough. I don’t can’t remember any others as I don5 listen much now.
