![Andy Field, 61, an NHS doctor who said he
knew Farage well because they took the
same train to school, has similarly clear
memories.
"When I became a prefect, he [Farage] said,
Tll show you how to do it,' claimed Field,.
"He took me for a walk up to the lower
school playground, where all the children
from about nine years old to 12 would be.
And he singled out, completely at random, a
kid of Asian extraction, and just put him in
detention for no reason whatsoever. I was
flabbergasted, absolutely stunned. I was just
disgusted, really. No rhyme or reason, just
purely based on the colour of his skin.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:5mqpgxjffcckasqv7h6g7itu/bafkreifwa2hlzevsllsekm44ne6yprkgrfhwryxxclupy3cz2qqj42sxma@jpeg)

Many royal correspondents have said it would be difficult for Brian to strip Andrew of his titles, as it would require a huge amount of parliamentary time.

Lubov Chernukhin, wife of the Russian president’s one-time finance minister Vladimir, certainly takes an interest in her adoptive British homeland. In a decade up to the last election she gave more than £2m to the Tory party.

Lessons of Caerphilly by-election IMV:
1) UK has become a country with bloc politics
2) enough voters don't want Reform that they are very vulnerable to being on the wrong side of it
3) but Labour, an essential component of that anti-Reform bloc being able to win, are too unattractive at present.
