Next week's word is "super injunction"

 

Yes I know Keith, it's two words. 

What happened to the Super injunction?  I never heard anything about it!

He hasn't bit the rumours circulating around social media about his orientation. Now that Sue Gray has gone the other one is that he's got a problem with women - bit of a silly thing to say when many of his senior team are women.

I suspect Farage is using it as an excuse not to hold surgeries - which is a shame because his constituency holds some of the poorest wards in the country (like Jaywick), and probably need a good constituency MP more than others.

 

Farage backtracks on claim security advice blocks him from constituency surgery:

So  I agree it's his duty to be there at times for his constituents,  how has he answered that comment & explained it?

 

He hasn't offered any explanation, beyond lying about advice from the Speakers Office.

 

Still no surgeries held.

Can't access this link,  I believed he was objecting to the audience being rigged (hand-picked against him)briefly what was Laura Kuensberg saying?

[hackey lad]

Why all the talk about Farage ? Is it to divert attention away from Labour ?

[cressida]

No,  don't get paranoid.

I don't know @hackey lad - maybe it is because Labour have suddenly gone very quiet, no doubt while they  try and repair some of the damage caused by their recent 'mistakes'.

 

I personally think the topic need re-titling to remove the reference to ''General Election 2024' and the now pointless 'poll', but that is only my opinion -  others may differ.
