I've just seen on news that the Reform leader can't do computers and put in hisxexpenses months late. Do people really want someone like that as PM. Oh god give me strength.

My post has been hidden due to references to a certain currency. Hopefully it will be cleared soon!

Huh?

Still preferable to Starmer. Saw him on PMQs today, tying himself in knots over the Chagos deal *. The guy is a fucking buffoon.

  • If Greenlanders should determine the future of Greenland, why is he shafting the Chagosians?

Prefer to Starmer. Oh dear.

His lack of techspertise would rank low on the list of reasons why I don't want him anywhere near the post of PM.

He’s also on Russia’s payroll and exists to benefit oligarchs, not ordinary people. Currently in Davos, not working for his constituents in Clacton.

Yes.

I tell you what, why not have a Google and read about why the Chagos Islands were handed back to Mauritius - and why the Americans (including Trump) agreed with that.

Oh, and also, that it was the Conservative Party that set the whole thing in train,

Educate yourself for goodness sake.

In April 2022, Farage appeared in a video titled “New Money, New Rules” from Southbank Research, offering “the truth about c-word currencies”, in which he said he had bought c-word currencies.

He said: “Five years ago, c-word currencies were pure speculation. Yet now, making c-word a part of your plans just makes sense, doesn’t it? I have. A short while ago, I took a small amount of my money, I opened an account, I invested in c-. It wasn’t difficult, but I’m glad I did it and I’m not alone.”

But he doesn't do computers?

With the amount of money he makes from outside sources youd think he could afford to hire an admin assistant.
