I agree it's quite a coincidence. OTOH it's not hard to believe that (a) such racists exist and (b) they are more likely to support refuk than other parties.

I just watched it again. What if there is no conspiracy and he's just a bit of a sad wannabe actor that's out honing his craft, acting alone if you will?

Maybe Laurence Fox is just honing his craft too.

One could speculate that Farage is eyeing up a change of career too.

Of course politicians lie for career advancement all the time anyway.

I'm reading Shipman's book on Brexit at the moment and he's retelling the moments when many people realised Corbyn would be a rubbish PM:
Skripal poisoning - we should ask Putin to analyse the poison to verify it's erm Russian.
Syrian chemical attacks - erm it could have been someone else

In summary, giving despots and murderers the benefit of the doubt - ain't a good look.

Ditto Reform bellends.

Meanwhile, it was the other side taking their money and their leader open to blackmail, double crossing, with his attendance at bunga bunga parties.

What a period of "leadership" we had.

It says something that (naively?) asking for evidence was seen as worse than dancing with the devil. I would add an asterisk that some of those happened under May rather than Johnson, but if they did then Johnson was the drunk foreign secretary anyway.

The Russians really did play our political system for fools. Yet, somehow still are.
