Brilliant news Farage saying the Brexit party will contest every seat in Scotland.
Nicola could not write a better script. Can we please get Nigel to do a public tour of the Scots regions.

Mind you I have been told that the Brexit party only have enough money and candidates to contest 40-60 seats in the UK.
Someone must be telling porkies. [Again]

Going to buy McDonalds shares as milkshake sales might be going through the roof ;-)

Honestly, I think Farage should think about what he wants. Does he want to be in teh media or does he want to get Brexit done? His best bet for Brexit is a Tory majority, contesting seats might split votes and risk that. So keep quiet an don't be in the media?
I am all for him splitting the vote, tbh.

Does anyone have a guess how the DUP will be doing? Are they save seats? Are they better off now that 3 weeks ago, or worse?

I think the DUP seats would be ultra safe unless there are some great Protestant independents around. Unfortunately that's the way it's is.

I think he mostly wants the maximum publicity for Nigel Farage. And anything else is a bonus. He was a big player in UK politics in terms of media coverage if not quite number of MPs. He then stepped down, UKIP went all BNP so he's getting the old band together under a different brand name. Anything to keep him in the news. And fair play to him, he knows his audience and a lot of media outlets lap it up.
