        Fascinating bias – Richard tice – deputy for the brexit Party – elected as MEP – goes to make the acceptance speech – didn’t hear a word – instead Laura talks do do .

        An hour into BBC coverage – not a word from any one from the Brexit Party – it reflects the anti democratic view of the State Broadcaster .
        I feel like using industrial language but refraining and would entreat others to do the same as I don’t want to spend Monday ‘ editing ‘ entries …,

          Arriving as normal while it was still dark, a young chap asked me pleasantly if I would take a Conservative Party leaflet. Of course, back then, we always voted for them, but as I was in a happy frame of mind, I just said ‘Yes of course, God bless her’, and a recognisable voice boomed ‘Thank you very much’, and there was the real lady all ready to work, at around 6:00am!

      I think Bad Al panicked a bit when Richard Tice pulled him up on this. It was a casual smear, as you would expect from this piece of filth, but it was also a slander, and provably so The Brexit Party are the only party actually to have been audited by the Electoral Commission before the election, thanks to Gordon Brown gobbing off with no proof whatsoever.

      I do hope that Nigel finds time in his busy schedule to send Evil Al a writ for slander. He will have no defence at all, and the thought of him having to shell out thousands to the Brexit Party is just too funny. Do it Nigel!

    Disappointing Brexit Party showing in Scotland, to be honest. I was hoping they might do somewhat better, but it seems the SNP could order the slaughter of the first born and still win hands down. I’m at a loss as to what can be done to counter that.

    What I will say is that it’s well documented that a sizeable minority of SNP supporters want out of the EU, so I suspect a good few percentage points landed up there. It can only strengthen wee Nicola’s hand for an independence referendum. With any luck she will over reach herself and lose it, but there’s no doubt there’s a risk of Scotland voting for independence. I suspect many south of the border will say good riddance, but from where I sit I’d prefer that didn’t happen.

      Quite possible Roland, the traiterous unhappy woman may well win a vote for an independent Referendum, however I pretty certain that the EU will entertain Scotalnd as a seperate country joining the EU. Scotland on thier own have little to offer the EU, and a population of only 5.2 million, will not bring large amounts of wonga to the EU thieves. My wife is a Scot who is absoultely furious with the present traiterous attitude of the Scottish Parliament. Her father and her uncles all fought in WW2, but as they would say if alive, that they fought for the United Kingdom.
