If he has done nothing wrong, then no. But, the ombudsman said in the second report that the appointment was wrong. The problem will be if the new President is from another party and follows the ombudsman's advice.

The USSR was an Empire continued from the Tsarist Empire. Not an international organisation in the sense that you joined it voluntarily.

Nah. Put an anti Islam slogan and anti EU ribbon on your dog and it will walk it. Enough people out there who cannot think for themselves.

The Nazis used the Führerprinzip not democracy. Similar to the Brexit Party. The leader decides and it is almost impossible to remove him. The Nazis left international organisations and treaties. Sharing sovereignty in an international organisation was against their nationalistic agenda. Which...

Tbf your dog has 2 known policies. Walkies and Feed me. 1 more than the Farage Party.

I agree, but think 70% is too little. Which is why we should not have had a referendum. Leaving will, according to virtually all experts, cost us dearly in economic terms. 37% of voters made a conscious effort to vote us out of something the majority know little about and are not really...

I can imagine this conversation in the early 30s. Didn’t end well then. Just out of interest, have you ever followed a debate in the EU parliament? I mean apart from the Farage clips? Didn’t you criticise Tony a million times for taking a similar view and voting for Farage when he was leader...

Apropos transparency...... are you going to vote for a party led by a dictator who won’t disclose his party manifesto until after he has won the election? The only named policy is to reduce our home market from 500 m to 65m. That’s it. The rest comes later. Why? What are the policies that he...

Nothing unusual there. I said he should resign in the interests of transparency. He didn’t and he won’t be removed until after the elections. If at all.

I have never defended him or his appointment. I have just quoted the facts in the 2 ombudsman reports. I still am sticking to the facts. One of which is that Selmayr is an employee and you cannot just sack him without a legal reason. The only people who could do that ( sack him ) are his...

No comparison. A dictatorship in a political party likely to win the British part of the EU elections, against a dispute into the appointment of a top civil servant who cannot legislate. The Selmayr dispute has been postponed until after the EU elections as no one knows who he will be...

Any other candidates giving away things would get the same problems. I have said that he should be allowed to stand. If anything it broadens the discussion. People like myself have to vote now ( I do anyway ), but too many take it for granted that we elect people who will continue roughly along...

Yes it does. There are laws to stop people enticing voters with giveaways. You allow cheeseburgers. Then the next candidate gives away 2 cheeseburgers and 2 cokes. And so it goes upwards. All sorts of bribes and enticements. Which is why it is a total ban. Nothing to do with Tommy being a victim.

Yeah, people asking for factual evidence is shit. The whole discussion nowadays is about fake news and you can say what you want. Then come these people who ask you to back things up....

Tommy Robinson 'warned he could be breaking electoral law' at his MEP campaign launch

He has a criminal record involving fraud and violence. Whatever your views, he is an offender and he is violent. He is also making a fortune out of the mugs who follow him. No hero. Just a thug on a good earner.

I am not a fan of Tommy. I agree with what you say. But with Parliament or a Council he will not get the voice he gets with the EU elections. UKIP and BP have more chance of getting representation with PR than FPTP. I don’t know how many parties you have to choose from in the EU elections, but...

Brexit Party - manifesto comes after the vote and the party is constituted on the Führerprinzip. No one in a position to challenge the leader. Nigel Farage has near-total control of Brexit party, constitution suggests And people will vote for it. :-(

And just for balance: Tommy Robinson is a far-right, Islamophobic extremist. Here’s why. – HOPE not hate

Another one happy that the EU is more democratic than the UK. PR allows people like yourself to have more say. I disagree with most of what you say, but accept your, and Tommy‘s right to a voice. Would be ironic if Brexit takes away his candidacy.
