As I said yesterday, his being designated as the official leader of the Out campaign is the best thing that could have happened to those who want the UK to remain in the EU.

Err - no he isn't.

As for your link, typical tat from the Guardian. I might have known the word 'vile' would make an appearance.

Oh Nigel will do just fine whatever the outcome. Fox will pay him a lot to peddle his nonsense on their news network. Imagine the Farage and Palin show? Of course that would make him an immigrant but that's OK for him.

I posted a link from the Guardian yesterday and that was dismissed.

Perhaps it went against the opinion being offered and for a lefty rag too.

How is this so difficult to grasp? Should the purpose of the EU only be for those politicians who agree wholesale with the institution? That would be even more anti-democratic than it already is.

As for Emma Thompson and her disregard for her country, she is a very wealthy champagne socialist, making utterances from her ivory tower.”

One for the LBC politics thread, I think, if we're going to continue this, but I see this differently. I think there's a big difference between being the Opposition in a country and trying to make it better and taking money from something that you're arguing to leave and which you believe wastes tax-payers' money. Douglas Carswell's position on the Short money was principled; one could argue that so is Sinn Fein's refusal to come to Westminster.

Anyway, I'm really just interested in what I see as hypocrisy in criticising one person, but not another, who are essentially doing the same thing.

(PS the sentence about Thompson being a champagne socialist really is just meaningless guff, and just name-calling at the end of the day).

Fox? Oh no Bangla; Nigel has some documentaries in the pipeline to be shown on British TV.

You'd love it.

Its funny you call it nonsense why is it such nonsense for the UK to have full control over its own destiny so nonsensical.?

As for him being employed by fox is that a fact or something you have made up yourself.

You cannot possibly know he may well even present a show on LBC.

Yes, in a cleverly contrived juxtaposition of comments today he effectively labelled Mr Farage as a 'rabble-rousing, hate-mongering fascist'. I'm sure there are some who would agree with that but it doesn't do JOB's cause any good to alienate people who aren't impressed by his own hate-filled empty rhetoric.

That would be correct.

Will that include his long - promised but never-released EU income statement ?

Now that would be an interesting document.

As has been pointed out ad nauseam, it's only hate-filled empty rhetoric if you disagree with it... and both 'sides' can be accused of this.

Much more useful to actually talk about the points and issues, surely, and avoid tit-for-tat and childish language, whether that's nonsense like calling everyone 'fascist' or 'lefty' and 'champagne socialist'.

Have they indeed?

My man. LOL.

Have you heard of the Grassroots Out Movement? And who are also applying for the designation of the Official Leave campaign.

Look to see all of the cross-party politicians, businessmen etc. who are involved with this leave project. And there will be even more politicians to come. Check out the Grassroots Out thread in Politics for further details; and for the GO rally in Westminster this evening.

Why do you insist on repeating these myths ? The European Court of Auditors has signed off on EU budgets for years . And they work to a higher standard than their UK counterparts according to the UK officials themselves ! Would you like a link to signed - off budgets ?

Conclusion: The ECA signed off on the 2014 accounts as reliable, as it has for every set of figures since 2007. But it did find that payments were materially affected by errors.


Here is one for you and they were signed off despite significant errors whatever they are.

If i employed an accountant and they signed off my paperwork despite significant errors they would be done for fraud i suspect.

Every audit has material errors, and the UK auditors have a higher tolerance for material errors than the ECA !

You are at least 6 hours behind on the infighting . GO! Is the umbrella group that seeks to federate everyone else and Nigel ':s in charge !
You can tell, he has already fallen out with Daniel Hannan.

Traipsing to a half-empty hall in Gateshead to applaud The Man does make you his No1 fan I think
