It's had not to feel sorry for Nigel Farage. From now to whenever the election (which he has no idea of timing) he has to be indefatigable in pushing the crock of reform up the incline of unfavourable demographics. whilst at the same time keeping the plates spinning on the "appeal" of reform whilst at any moment something could happen in the US (also out of his control) or Russia.
Sound a lot ? He won't even have started. He also needs to keep a very close eye on all those Tories who have "defected" to Reform and now look even more like a task force to oust the leader than last year.
All this whilst hoping no one defects to the UK from Russia with all the receipts.
