Could Reform be any more of a bin for dodgy and disgraced Tories?
Who’s next… Johnson? Gove? Mogg?

The answer is simple, if Clacton residents want to see more of Nine Jobs Nige - They need to pay him to visit the constituency. It’s a free market and Nige is a hot commodity, you can't have him for nothing..:)

Growing up in the 50s every adult I knew - family etc were involved in the Second World War, whether in the armed forces, in the factories or keeping the home fires burning. All heroes. I grew up living with a generation of heroes.
