It's only an illusion, words without any action to back them up I suspect.

Why would Farage ever want to be in an elected government? He's pulled the strings of the government for years now (both Tory and otherwise).

I don't suppose he does - far too much work. All he needs to do is be in the spotlight and every party delivers his manifesto anyway

His latest stuff about swans made me think he’s not actually interested. It’ll appeal to a minority of headbangers but it’ll put the wider electorate off.

I don't think Farage actually wants to fix anything (and wouldn't know how), but he has mastered the art of shouting from the sidelines and making good money out of it.

The problem Labour has got is it is petrified of creating its own narrative. I see dickhead Rachel is out reaffirming the fiscal rules today.

Listening to bits from the Labour conference is really dispiriting. Sounds like policies written in the week since Nige said some things. Basically, this vibe...

Just watching the news to catch up on today's conference news. Incredibly uninspiring and seem more concerned with people who will never vote for the than people who are, or in some cases it will now be were, Labour voters.

It'll be better after the election

By 2029 they'll recover the 9 point deficit because the economy will be great

Biden was a catastrophe. The bloke didn’t know what day of the week it was. He made Dianne Abbott look like Einstein.

You seriously telling me Biden had a grip on illegal immigration….have a word

You do realise a President doesn't do it all themselves, right? They delegate and bring in other people to help them achieve their goals.

Trump does too. He put a vaccine sceptic with a worm in his brain and who dumps dead bears in Central Park in charge of health, a woman who ran wrestling in charge of education and a news presenter in charge of the military.

And Trump has such a strong grip on what he's doing he thought Azerbaijan (sorry, Aberbaijan) was at war with Albania, not Armenia . Although he did think Armenia were at war with Cambodia, which is over 4,000 miles away so that's a real problem for everyone in between. And has anyone managed to find Thighland on the map yet? Although I suppose that doesn't matter when paracetamol causes autism. Though it's ok because you can inject yourself with bleach to kill covid.

Does that sound like a man who knows what he's fucking talking about and knows what the fuck he's doing?

Too many angry leftist on here. Not one person has said how amazing it is there might actually be an end to the Israel conflict.

All they want to do is say how bad Trump is, they are petrified it might actually work because they wouldn’t able to deal with themselves being wrong about everything

If he ends the fighting, gets Israel to completely withdraw, pay to repair all the damage they’ve done and hands Netanyahu over to be tried for war crimes then I’ll applaud Trump louder than anyone.

You do understand there is a distinction between what I want to happen and what I think will happen?

That, and for someone who expects the Nobel peace prize, he should achieve something extraordinary. If he actually succeeded in getting Israel completely out of Gaza and the West Bank, decommissioned Hamas, got Gaza rebuilt and secured a two state solution, he’d deserve one.

But he is proposing nothing of the sort.
