The lack of interest from the media in Fromage's murky finances and spivvy evasions (and before that in Boris Johnson's ever-iffy financial arrangements) contrasts rather strongly with their beady-eyed obsession with the finances of Labour politicians - especially female ones like Rayner and Reeves.
It’s really boring to have to keep asking Farage who bought his house, in what currency and why? It’s been 163 days and we still know zilch. How is he allowed to get away with this? How and why is he so Protected. Even Andrew Windsor’s protection came to an end!

You have got to find this impressive.

Ahead of Labour and the Tories.
Labour picked a fight with those that supported what they once were.
The Tories just picked a fight with everyone.

Sadly for Farage, being a decent orator isn't quite enough - you also need to say something worth listening to.
Farage is (by current UK political standards) a decent orator. But he still seems to find doing it in the Commons a bit tricky.

Interesting that even the far right sometimes apologise for racist remarks. But if this is what they really believe surely their racism is something they should be proud of.
Nothing on the BBC Radio news this morning. Nothing I could find on their website. This is an MP from the party whose lead in the opinion polls normally ensures them wall-to-wall coverage. She spouts racist nonsense for which even she feels obliged to apologise. What on earth are they playing at?
