What's the odds he'll become a permanent LBC presenter when he loses his EU job? Once Brexit kicks in there won't be any British MEPs .Nigel has always loved the sound of his voice so he'll be a natural fit at LBC.

He never does his EU job anyway.

Nigel is on LBC again tonight and for the rest of the week between 10pm and 1am.
I'm sure he'll have more to say about the resignation of the UK's ambassador to the EU Sir Ivan Rogers. |

He seems to do what he said he would do. Which makes a change from politicians not doing what they said they would do and doing what they said they would not. Plus the fact he is democratically elected into the EU parliament.
As a radio phone in presenter I think he has been very good so far. He allows people the time to challenge and confront him and responds in a fair way. |

Heard Nick Clegg call brexiters "swivel eyed" again today on C4. I like the fact that farage doesn't lower himself to the level of those fanatics. He speaks clearly and respectfully.

This would be the Farage who told Herman van Rompuy in the European Parliament "You have the charisma of a damp rag and the appearance of a low-grade bank clerk" before reminding him "You come from Belgium, which is pretty much a non country".
The one that lied to get a seat at the top table by making a pledge on tuition fees only to vote the opposite way post election result and then goes on to insult 52% of the electorate by implying that they're swivel eyed loons because they didn't vote accordingly to satisfy his parties stance or the one who insulted an individual that he's been having a war of words with for umpteen years? It's hard to separate them. Pfft |

He didn't lie as such. He made a promise which he later found unable to fulfil. That's not unusual amongst politicians. And I doubt that he referred to everyone who voted Leave as "swivel eyed".
Its political suicide to make a promise you can't keep and he found that out the hard way. The 2 faced bastard deserved the absolute roasting he and his party got at the last election. Complete sell out that still has the gaul to lord it over people because he thinks he knows better. |

Happens with parties all the time, and especially if you enter into a coalition as junior partner it's inevitable. It's not usually political suicide, though in this case it was, because of the personal pledges. Quote:

Perhaps Farage should have told the truth by telling everyone that the 350M printed on the side of a bus was not true or not stood in front of his racist immigration poster.
Shock horror, it works both ways. Well he did not print the 350 mil on the side of the bus and the poster was a factual portrayal of people trying successfully to cross borders illegally. |

True, but I still don't understand why Clegg refers to Brexiters as swivel eyed. That is highly offensive. I know he pretends to play the ultimate modern liberal - but I am surprised people who actually have this disability - have not made a fuss about this.
From the Oxford English Dictionary : Holding or expressing political views regarded as extreme or fanatical: ‘a swivel-eyed loon banging on about the Magna Carta’ ....which shows that Clegg's use of the term is perfectly acceptable and proper. |

Are you confusing the phrase with something else? 'Swivel-eyed' is not a medical term at all and does not refer to any disability, it simply means to rotate the eyes in a frenzied manner.

He gets so much airtime on LBC already. Depressing.

Did you know that Hollywood is interested in making a film of Arron Banks' The Bad Boys of Brexit: Tales of Mischief, Mayhem & Guerrilla Warfare in the EU Referendum Campaign ??
![]() See here for further details: https://twitter.com/LeaveEUOfficial/...47179126382592 It's a good read. It's always nice to listen to Nigel on LBC. Negative or positive towards him, Nigel is always very fair and balanced with his callers. Unlike another unmentionable on LBC who makes it all about himself. ![]() Nigel and Arron, and I don't know who else, will be off next week for the Big Bash in the USA: http://www.express.co.uk/news/world/...ion-VIP-invite It looks like they've been invited to lots of events. |

Really enjoyed the debate with Katie Hopkins about racial profiling today.
I was expecting quite a lot of calls and nasty tweets from the 'outraged white person on behalf of' mob, but they must have been having a day off thankfully. |

The poster was also a pretty close copy of one used in Nazi propaganda.
Very very tiresome. |
