Listening to the Farrago-excusistas calling in to LBC is - erm - yes it is rather funny, but it is also depressing as intelligent people try and tell us that this does not reflect negatively in any way whatsoever on the 'great' man. Richard not so en-Tice-ing was less than his usual bombastic positive self in an interview I heard earlier. Even Farrago sounded a little apologetic in his statement.

farrago (def. A confused mixture :) )

And I'll leave Farrago just there, because on here we don't do name-calling of politicians.

One thing that this almost certainly does is return Jeremy Hunt as the MP for South-West Surrey as most hopes of a change depended upon TBP taking a bundle of Tory votes.

Hilarious!!!!

Love it when you get so angry that we might end up with what we voted for that, like a 5 year old, you start name calling 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Don’t know why he wasn’t there, spent the day in Doncaster visiting flood victims and Emergency Crews.
Only 170 miles away so it’ll be interesting to see if anything comes out in the next few days.

Of all the days he choose to go to Doncaster. A direct and obvious snub to the Armed forces and I'll add IMO and many thousands of vets.

He laid a wreath on the main day - i would never vote for Labour with Corbyn in charge but the smear campaign on both sides is poor and at time disgraceful

Seems this whole thing is not about what party can do the best for the UK but which is the worst.

What negotiating, both have denied talking to each other over the weekend, boris said No to a deal last week.
Is one or both of them lying then if you reckon this deal has been negotiated?

Oh what a surprise, you disagreeing with my post. I wish to explain nothing to you as you are a blinkered embittered man with an axe to grind.

Not 100% sure with the current commander in chief they are our biggest ally and putting a lot of faith in us getting a favourable trade deal may be a little misplaced. As who knows what his thinking is from day to day. He was building a wall in Colorado the other day.

It didn't take long for the UK far right ultras to dance to the Donald's tune.

As someone who was there on the night I can assure you that the comments being made were more than smears, it was taken by many as a direct snub of those serving and Veterans. If you take was different that's fine and I respect your opinion.

It’s nothing but a smear campaign and I have no doubt that some veterans will take it as a direct snub but what exactly is he snubbing ? no one is expected to attend. He was visiting people who are being affected by a current issue , people losing homes and livelihoods

He was there the next day to pay his respects when it matters

It’s people just looking to find negatives.

I’m not sticking up for him mate, I’m furious that the Remembrance Service became partly about his absence.
My point is that he could of easily done both.

The festival of remembrance has been going since the 1920's I think you'll find. I've attended a few so it isn't that new.
