    Sadly if the right weren't so bilious in what they write and preach then there would be no need to be judgmental. Everything seems to be 'leftie self loathing liberals' in every single puerile post, change the record and write something constructive that maybe others could construe as an intelligent statement...

    If we vote leave there'll be years of moaning about whatever deal we do with the EU, and years of moaning about how control of immigration hasn't meant a reduction in immigration. There's more than enough to keep Farage in the public eye for decades. Bozza and Govey will be part of the government, or leading the government, leaving Farage the default voice of the 55%, forever whinging about the outcome.

    A decisive victory for Remain is the only way we're likely to shut him up. Who's with me?

    Isn't that how the UK government view the electorate anyway?

    For a while but then the media would tire of him. If we vote Remain he'll remain as the face of the bitter "45%" forever whinging about the outcome.

    No he's a lazy publicity-seeking politician. If you want to show contempt you protest so it's recorded in the minutes and then bugger off.

    Yes EU immigration policy based on freedom of movement is clearly bloody stupid. It has driven down the wages of the poorest in the receiving country and allowed criminals free roam throughout Europe.

    Not sure where the CLEAR RACIST OVERTONES are there? Oh of course they are in your head!
