Being prepared to go to war with your closest allies because you were not awarded the Nobel Peace Prize does seem like the clearest possible vindication of the decision that you didn’t deserve it.

For well over a decade, Nigel Farage criticised Davos and just two years ago criticised Starmer for going and calling him a
"full-on globalist, hanging out with his mates at the World Economic Forum."
So, question. Where do you think Nigel Farage is going today?

Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.

Misogynists - such relaxed and happy people. So comfortable in their gossamer thin skins. So happy with their life's work and all they never achieved.
