Fox hunting is a revolting sport. It's only survived in any form because it's done by ghastly, entitled, influential and aristocratic people who feel it's the God given right to charge about the place in silly costumes tearing animals apart for no good reason.

It’s really simple…
- Cap all political donations
- Ban foreign donations
- Strict conflict‑of‑interest & anti‑corruption laws with penalties
- No titles, honours or peerages for donors
- No govt contracts for donors
- Publish every donation/lobby meeting
…that’ll do it.

“But, but, Reform didn’t exist when he took his Russian bribes”

Watching Farage on the news. He's just laughing at Peston when confronted with his obvious lies. When faced with his tax affairs he just says 'I'm different, I've run a business, so what'. When pressed on spending plans he says GPs are 'forced' to put 'young people' on disability. So easy for him.
