He's the only toad I'd pay to watch get squashed.

The whole "Put a legal cap on migration" thing particularly scares me given that my wife is an immigrant and will need to renew her visa in a little over a year. Yes it's the Tories that are pledging it and they won't win but as an idea I worry about it catching on.

Sigh. Is it so hard to lob piss at him? I know it's a waste of good piss, but still..

So much for the incontinent left.

Was just reading about Farage getting in the way of some perfectly innocent object throwing and the final paragraph made me laugh.

During a campaign walkabout in Newcastle in 2019, he also had banana and salted caramel milkshake thrown at him.

Does the flavour of the milkshake make any difference to the fascist it hits?

[Benzin]

Only woke leftists have salted caramel anything.

It doesn't specify that it was a vegan milkshake and I therefore believe it was a false flag.

Lobbing rocks at that banana split only plays into the hands of the banana splits who want banana splits like him in power tbh.

Anyone dumb enough to think "I wasn't going to vote for Reform, but then I saw something being thrown at Nigel!" was already voting for Reform.

Ah good, the Tory manifesto has been published, I was running a bit short on loo roll.

[Outrunner]

Starmer said: “This is coming from a party that’s put tax at the highest level for 70 years, and they’re building the sort of Jeremy Corbyn-style manifesto where anything you want can go in it, none of it is costed.”

“It’s a recipe for more of the same, and that’s why this choice of turning the page on this, to turn the page and rebuild with Labour is so important, with six first steps that are ready to go on July the 5th.”

He added: “That’s why I say it’s a Jeremy Corbyn-style manifesto, which is load everything into the wheelbarrow, don’t provide the funding and hope that nobody notices the money isn’t there.”

Starmer Love a bit of revisionist history, bodes well for the future. Especially given he specifically stated he wouldn't trash Corbyn's record. What a loveable snake scamp

Usual anti-violence disclaimer aside, it's a delightful image.

Corbyn's record deserves to be trashed though as it was terrible.

...and don't even get me started on the B side.

Chessington is in his constituency, he can go there any time.

Everyone knows Alton Towers is the best option.
