There is a lot to offer voters this election. Delivery of a clean Brexit, as voted for by the people, and rejecting a 'progressive' coalition of lunacy that would ruin the economy and lives. The Tories need to be kept in check, hence that's why after they get slaughtered, UKIP must get their act together as they are the only credible opposition in the country. Labour, the Lib Irrelevants and the SNP aren't credible opponents and don't keep the government in check or influence government policy. Thank goodness Nigel Farage did and continues to do so. Farage is not standing at this election.

Maybe he should try and explain how his bats*** policies would be paid for. My concern is only that it's not extra holiday at all. All it is forcing us all to be on holiday at the same time. Parrot

Farage is not standing at this election. I know. He is an MEP and will do his best to ensure that the British people get the clean Brexit they voted for.

Nobody voted for a clean brexit everybody has a different idea what that would mean but not wishing to appear pedantic perhaps you mean a 'clean break' for example just walk away? That would be an emotional bluff that would be called and the union could break up leaving England and Wales as a banana republic. You cannot leave a power bloc of 27 nations without consequences live in the real world. Take a look at the map and see how big England and Wales is with the slight problem of 60 million mouths to feed. As we have seen already the USA and the EU will simply carry on without us.

Supported Palace for over 69 years since the age of 7 and have seen all the ups and downs and will probably see many more ups and downs before I go up to the big football club in the sky. |

Yes but we WILL carry on without them and make our own deals and destiny which is better than being ruled by all those idiots threatening to give us a hard time because we voted to leave their hated club!
