LibDem MP ousted so Farage could speak. Assume this is protocol as party leaders needed to speak. Hope he'll be told to do one in future though. WTF - whose whips?? The Lib Dem whips turfed one of their own out to let Farridge have the spotlight??? |

They may have thought the optics of Farage not getting a seat for this initial hearing (and blaming whoever) wasn't worth the hassle?
I wouldn't even put it past him being late on purpose to drive up the 'outsider persona' he loves!

I think that's giving him a bit too much credit.

What little I saw of Farage's "speech" while watching the Lib Dem behind him roll his eyes was him just slagging off Bercow. He's going to be fucking terrible as an MP in the chamber, if he shows up much.

I reckon that will be his lot for a while, unless his name gets picked from a hat to ask a question - I just want his inbox to be full of pothole complaints and requests for new bus routes!

I really hope the people of Clacton take every pothole, boundary fence dispute and dog poo hotspot in the constituency to his surgeries and casework inbox

"Nigel Farage had obviously been enjoying the hospitality of the tea rooms" is going under the radar a bit in all this.

If I was Nigel Farage I think I'd want to be drunk most of the time too.

He was a massive pita in the EU, who loved a free lunch so nothing will change here.
He's such a prick. Fate really did us a disservice when he survived that plane crash.

Maybe not, maybe one day something even better will kill him.

On the one hand, I want to stop noticing them and talking about them. On the other hand it really is quite delicious.

It must be easy to look so professional in your first week in office, but the contrast between Labour and the Tories right now couldn't be starker.

On the one hand, I want to stop noticing them and talking about them. On the other hand it really is quite delicious. Yeah, just enjoy it because I think we earned it. It’s like at the end of a movie where the villain is shrunk and trapped under a bell jar, all of their bullshit is actually pretty funny now it has absolutely no consequences. Anyone who was worried about a Tory resurgence needn’t. Not a second has been spent on self reflection, they just immediately got back to the BAU of them being stupid, useless arseholes. It’s actually quite remarkable how little has changed. Getting absolutely trounced hasn’t broken their stride at all. It’s no wonder they achieved absolutely fuck all. |

I think it might be the end of the most recent The Witches movie, which is appropriate

Even the likes of Frost are still spouting bollocks into the void. It's amazing and slightly fascinating.
