With him declaring that he is not going to stand for Westminster in the coming GE - is he frit? I've got no idea what he's up to - unless he sees this as his shortcut route to a knighthood and/or the Lords. He has been instrumental in getting the country into the mess we are in, and now prefers it seems to stand to the side stoking the fire and to not put himself up to be 'judged' by the electorate. My disdain for the guy has almost no bounds.

You can’t be a member of Parliament when your a German citizen ... yup create a mess and then actually leave, ironically to an EU country.

I’m sure he’ll still sleep well at night despite that devastating news

To be honest, he's the self obsessed leader this country currently deserves based on current behavior.
 
So do we see a fading of the shining star - with four MEPs today leaving Forage Ltd and encouraging voters to vote Conservative in the GE. I can't say I feel any dismay whatsoever...indeed suggestions of an appearance of the silver lining I have hoped for around the cloud of a Johnson Premiership.

Why dont you just say what you want to say without all this stupid amateur dramatic language. It sounds petty and desperate.

What is not clear about what I posted...

The Brexit Party is not a normal membership party - my understanding is that there are three actual members - everyone else paying their subs are registered supporters - but have no voting rights or direct influence on party policy. In that way TBP is not unlike a business, with Farage as CEO; the 2nd member being the party 'treasurer' aka Finance Director; the 3rd being the 'Nominating Officer' aka Operations & HR Director. So we have Farage Ltd.

And I think silver linings to clouds are well understood.

I have said for some time that I could - albeit with difficulty - swallow Brexit and a Tory Party government - preferably with a.n.other than Johnson as PM - were that to see very limited Westminster representation, and hopefully the eventual demise, of Farage Ltd. aka The Brexit Party.

☝️Thats absolute waffle and talking in nonsensical terms that is only clear to you, meaning most people see it as another of your ramblings that adds nothing to debate..

☝️Thats actually saying what you meant in the first place and adds interest to the discussion and a new view point that perhaps some of us didn't know. Of which im one of those that wasn't aware of that about Brexit party, mainly because I've no interest in them or their politics as a voter, but find it interesting that you've pointed it out..

Simple lesson here say what you mean and it adds a good view point, post ramblings and most will over look it or ridicule it ?

He announced last week he’s dropping the brexit party and creating “The Reform Party”
 
Worrying thing is I actually agree with a part of what he is saying for changes to the voting system. Can you image that, a Farage party being one of the options I don't immediately dismiss in an election. Funny old world.

Same here, never thought I'd agree with anything he says, but the part about how the voting systems set up I do?
