Contrary to what some claim, many British people do care about Nigel's Dulwich School days.
The only group shrugging it off are the Reform/Nigel Farage die-hards, and that’s because they behave like a cult.
But that’s all there is, Reform has already reached its polling ceiling.

So much for "taking back control", apparently the rule is: deport them… but only after we’ve squeezed some cheap labour out of them.

The Prime Minister must now listen to his own MPs, drop his self-imposed red lines and finally go for proper growth through an ambitious trade deal with the EU.
