All this palava about Reform. The public must appreciate that they not to be trusted. It is ludicrous for anyone to vote for them.Look at the failed MPs they have collected from the Tories & those who have been working for the Russians & those who have helped trash the nation.

Spot on. It is terrible to say we told you so but at least it is the truth
It's January 31st, 2020, and Nathan Gill is celebrating our imminent departure from the EU.... and that terrible idea of a European Army.
Hmm, now I wonder who else would have been delighted about that.

I think that it was wrong to vote for Labour or Tory and certainly not for the regorm Party
Looks like the country has lost the moral compass

Excellent comments from Michael Heseltine who believes we must not abandon the shared laws of Europe & cannot afford to forget the lessons of history.
He warned that , extremists are back on the streets using immigration as a scapegoat. The young disagree 80% under 50 think we should be in the EU,

Who coined the phrase 'economic with the truth'?Well Mr Farage time for you to apologise to the British public yet again.
Nigel Farage - "I've never met the Russian ambassador."
I remember the furore about 'spin' during the Blair years. Brexit politicians replaced spin with blatant lies, and they've carried on ever since. It's another element of fascism that has entered our politics.

Support of the far right is just like the 30s with growth of the extreme right wing in this country.Decent people stopped them .Our multi cultured & cosmoplitan society today is much better so we must not allow the Reform party to prosper or we are doomed morally & financially
Here's a British flag we can proudly fly. It's a reminder of 1945 when the allies crushed fascism. It's a reminder of the evil of fascism and the immense sacrifices that were made to defeat it.
We must never let it return.

Well done Keir Starmer for saying what you did about Farage's comments. It was blatantly racist and frankly having watched his deputy on QT why anybody can consider voting for their Party is beyond me but at the same time scary
