    Cleaning off any contaminants perhaps? It could be slight mistranslation?

    Please…..don’t just dismiss almost a full year of effort so easily!

    Please don’t get the impression I am dismissing the work, far from it.
    it is just not an ideal way to showcase it, from my perspective the first part detracts from the second

    I didn’t get past the rant at the start. Opinionated isn’t he? Some of it I can see his point (the car seat bit) the rest……..well, it’s his blog and he obviously wants to get stuff off his chest but he lost me before the interesting bits

    What happened to Nige’s “march on the supreme court”?
    All gone very quiet, perhaps they realised they coun’t mobilise enough people, certainly not the 100,000 on a Monday morning
    Is John going on his own?

    Safe is a relative term. I don’t think it has to pass any crash tests to be sold

    I see them almost every day as I work 300 metres from the factory.

    My father had a KR200. Frightening

    “is this the first time…….”

    Your pal Paddy O’Bama tried it on during the current Presidency. I didn’t hear much screeching from you then !

    I seem to remember Nige saying “butt out of UK politics” to Obama, yet is now supporting a creature who is not even president yet in doing just that.

    Even the Torygraph agrees

    When Barack Obama said he hoped Britain would stay in the EU, Nigel Farage was appalled. An American president, he said, had no right to meddle in British affairs. Britain was quite capable of making her own decisions, thank you very much. The president, in short, should “butt out”.

    Today, however, Mr Farage appears rather more relaxed about political interference from across the pond. When Donald Trump told Britain she should make the on-off Ukip leader her ambassador to the US – even though she already has one – Mr Farage was not appalled. He did not say Mr Trump had “behaved disgracefully”, he did not order him to “butt out”, he did not remind him that the British don’t take kindly to being told “what we should do” by foreign powers.

    Hypocrisy?

    Contrary to some opinion, I’m not an uncritical admirer of the D.Tel. But, I cannot recall ever having read a slanted editorial.

    “…….this is an ego trip……”

    Pot/kettle

    For once John, we are in agreement. It was rather amusing to read IDS’s comment for that reason. That doesn’t mean however that he wasn’t right to say it as ‘it takes one to know one……’

    Apropos recent events. It looks as tho’ the irrelevance of yesterday is the ‘main man’ of to-day! How delicious is the thrill derived from seeing our beloved Nigel in action as the Blessed Theresa’s appointed go-between to the Trumpeter !

    You first, read it here.

    But as I see it that is Just Nige bigging himself up in an article the Torygraph have paid him for.

    Even they are reporting

    Number 10 have sharply dismissed suggestions that Nigel Farage could help to broker a relationship between Theresa May and Donald Trump.

    Mrs May’s official spokeswoman said the Government already has “well-established” channels of communication with Mr Trump’s team.

    no.10 and other Tories, including the odious IDS, are all saying there will not be any third party’ in the special arrangement. Indeed, I for once think IDS may have a point

    Former Tory leader Iain Duncan Smith MP added: “Nigel Farage is just trying to get attention. This is an ego trip – not a diplomatic one.”

    On a more positive note. 😉

    Positive?
    All it does is show what a shallow individual that he, and I would guess his advisors as well, are.

    Here’s one to tell your grandchildren: Nigel Farage, (D.Tel.10th inst.) has been mooted as either GB ambassador to the U.S. or, co-opted by the Trumpeter to serve as U.S. ambassador to the EU.

    This is so sweetly the stuff of dreams !

    Your wet dream may have to wait John, No.10 firmly putting this down this morning ‘ he is an irrelevance’ was I think the phrase

    http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/nigel-farage-donald-trump-president-latest-theresa-may-us-uk-downing-street-a7410856.html

    It appears that that paragon of virtue(not) Liam Fox may yet again have been briefing inappropriately and the Torygraph got it wrong, again “The Telegraph understands that ministers will be forced to seek Mr Farage’s advice because they have no links to the President-elect’s inner circle.” Nope.

    Edit: it appears even Liam Fox is now denying it and a friend of Nige’s says it is ‘absolute nonsense’ About right for the Telegraph

    Oh, no, it’s just for the convenience of visiting friends and family in Europe*.I am British and proud of it as well as being a European so will be staying where I was born. Thanks for your concern though

    * and a secondary advantage is it would put a few Brex****ters noses out of joint.

    I bow to your undoubted expertise.

    So glad you agree with me about the hypocrisy.

    I’ll get one if they do make this happen. And I would guess quite a few who voted leave would as well for convenience
