"The UK’s intelligence agencies have found no evidence that the Russian state interfered in the outcome of the Brexit referendum and the 2017 general election, according to two sources with direct knowledge of the findings in an as-yet-unpublished report from Parliament’s Intelligence and Security Committee." link |

I can't believe how much publicity the Farage 'interview' with Trump generated.
I was listening to it in the car, and was so appalled at the moronic incoherent ramblings from Trump that I nearly dropped my coffee and phone.
But it suited Nigel very well. It was a bit of a coup to get the Leader of the Free World (dear god) on his show and boost his profile. Boris and Jezza have had to respond.
Not sure if it will help him in the long run, because the members of his party are mostly fruitcakes, but you never know.
If he helps to engineer and manipulate a Tory victory and a Brexit of some sort, he might land a cabinet role.
Foreign Secretary, presumably.

Boris Johnson could literally shoot a pensioner dead in the street and he wouldn’t lose a vote. That’s the world we live in today. The world that we helped create. |

Also is this the same Nigel Farage who dislikes being part of Europe so much he has claimed German citizenship? Or are we talking about a different one? Not sure he does dislike being part of Europe. If he`s said that, then I must have missed it. He dislikes being part of the EU. |

I thought his choice of words were interesting and informative. He used the adjective "germane" to describe the contents of the report from the committee he chaired. Germane that is to the current political situation. The fact that Boris Johnson himself is sitting on it just adds to the suspicions.

Back in the real world
"Boris Johnson has been accused of only recognising a looming NHS crisis this winter over fears it will hamper the Conservatives’ chances in the December election.
The British Medical Association has warned of an “unprecedented” crisis in the coming months due to the “extreme pressure” on staff across the country."

And Farage decides not to stand as an MP because he is a coward.

And is this any different to the 'winter crisis' that is forecast every year? Will Labour use once again the *24hrs/3 days/one week (delete where appropriate) to save 'our NHS' slogan? I keep saying it, nothing will change until we move away from this argument as to which party will spend the most money on the NHS. After thirteen years of Blair and Brown, surely the NHS should have been sorted out? The problems with the NHS are not down to how much money is spent. |

Not with so many unstable members of the public, apparently willing to take direct action against them. I certainly wouldn`t thank you for the job. It`s a bit like sticking your head above the parapet on Hellfire Corner, circa 1917. |

If the previous government had not fixed it, then the last nine years certainly have not. |

Been doing some early polling myself and i can reveal
According to my twitter The GE will simultaneously return Tory and Labour majorities, Brexit Party will descimate Tories or get no seats, Libs will pick up remain Tory and Labour seats or stand still.
Sounds about right

Sounds about right Agreed. This one above all (even the last one) will be hard to predict. I'm seeing a lot of lib dems saying they will vote labour and vice versa in tactical seats which is uplifting. |
