    He then goes on blame other people in his party thinking it washes his hand clean. He uses the security card again. He then claims people are out to get him and his party.

    He always makes out that he’s the victim and this, I think, resonates with those fools who vote for Reform. They all feel victim to something and want to take revenge.

    Sounds like prime minister material. The job has only a few boring meetings and paperwork to get through.

    This the same rally looking event where the octogenarians beat the crap out of some lady while dragging her by her hair, as Farage chanted, “boring, boring.”?

    “I don’t listen during important meetings” isn’t the defence you think it is, Five Mil Froggie.

    He’s flailing like crazy now, it’s almost embarrassing how pathetic his excuses are getting.

      “He can’t be arsed to work, he’s just like me! I am so voting for him as PM!!”

      Sadly, this sort of idiocy wins votes. Farage’s whole political career has been about avoiding doing any work, claiming excessive expense repayments, and pretending that it’s a political position.

        Oh I know. My abusive ex was a fan of Froggie. People like Frogface are attractive to people with a lot of hate in their hearts. Sadly this includes people with trauma who end up listening to hatemongers like him instead of working on the trauma that makes them so angry.

    At the moment they are in firefighting mode. They need to retain their core base, so any excuse no matter how ridiculous will give their followers something to clutch at.

          Absolutely it sounds nonsense.

          It’s perfectly grammatical, but it’s one of the few commands where the subject isn’t elided. The others that occur to me are “hear ye, hear ye,” and “look on my works, ye mighty, and despair,”from Ozymandias, both of which are definitely very old fashioned sounding.

    That’s right guv’nor when this lot were conspiring to rob a bank and give me the money I wasn’t even listening like.
