Yep totally agree I'm a couple of years older than Farage and I knew when I was 13-16 and beyond that the holocaust was the uniquely most evil thing ever done and that Jewish people and others had suffered immeasurably. There were no jokes or "banter" in the playground about it nor any antisemitism.

He's just another public school boy twat who knows fuck all about anything but has the brass neck to think it knows everything about everything. I doubt he's ever been anywhere near a state school classroom with all its wonderful variety of children. Absolute tosser!

Not enough (if anything) is being said about the rights we all benefit from by being in the ECHR nor how those rights being lost could endanger many of us if Farage and Co end up running the country.

You have to be at least 70 to have any meaningful memory of what life was like 50 years ago. I'm 64 and 50 years ago I was 14. I wasn't walking around thinking gosh the streets are clean aren't pensions good and look there are no potholes, I bet it will be worse in 50 years time. Utter nonsense.

Gay men are very good at living a lie and pretending to be or not be something. We have a natural advantage in a game like Traitors, although Alan probs always found it hard to hide himself so that's where my hypothesis falls flat!

Just like cutting Ni twice when the country couldn't afford it to deliberately salt the earth for the incoming government was "stupid" irresponsible, and staggeringly partisan. But hey he's a tory so we have to listen to him eh!

Its a great series Ben. Looking forward to part three. This discussion is long overdue in this country. There is never a sensible debate about our taxation and that paying tax is a good thing, not some nasty lefty plot!

Is there a more vile snake than Farage. There is no situation no matter how sensitive that he won't exploit for his own ends. He is grooming her but she is too damaged to see that the same thing is happening again.

They arrived here (on the Suffolk Coast) a couple of years ago. It is a delight to watch them. They are the most beautiful creatures.

She had a hit with Danny Come home in about 1973. I thought she was amazing. Spoke so many languages performed in lots of amazing places and was quite unique in her appearance. As a lonely bullied little gay kid I lived in my imaginary Nana world travelling all over the world in my head.

OMG Nana Mouskouri. Bless her! Loved her when I was a (weird) gayboy child. She must be cracking on now. Would love to hear her sing the White Rose of Athens one more time.

That is true. I thought he was mad to back himself into such a tight corner.

Don't you think he is heading in that direction at quite a rapid pace? I'm not sure but do hope that it is the case.
