Farepak £0
Brexit Party £0

How about you?

I'm probably being a bit unfair on farepak - having googled it they were perhaps not as malicious as I may have implied (certainly not like Nigel Ltd) - they did operate for years and provided the service their customers paid for until it went wrong in 2006.
Don't be silly no hampers here.I live in the county of spires and squires, even our Xmas pud is free range.

Donations aside, I also wonder who on here might actually be being paid to post?

Honestly as much as people say this I can't think of a single poster where I've thought that might be the case.

Regardless of position on leave or remain.

Not often you see people being taken by a conman over and over and over again.

Next time you pay him, he will definitely do something. He promises.
Thirty of his would be candidates standing for election volunteered to stand down prior to Nigel’s
later directive. The overarching point of importance to these Brexit Party candidates is to ensure brexit actually happens, not a concern over a few quid contributed to TBP. Don’t forget that his followers are apparently the older ‘grey army’ people (like me) that are financially well equipped to help bolster TBP coffers, not to mention some wealthy backer.smile
Of course you know this but do not wish to acknowledge. Nigel is the Pied Piper of politics.
I'm pretty sure I heard Nigel Farage say that Boris Johnsons deal was not Brexit.

There are a number I frequently think I would pay not to post.

Cash or cheque D ? wink

IIRC there was a post threshold ten years or so back (under the previous owners) that I narrowly missed out on. Which is a shame, as I was looking forward to receiving my commemorative gold clock.

EU has written to UK a second time suggesting that UK names a new EU Commissioner. Boris has refused, Steve Baker strongly suggests His Nigelness. hehe

No matter how many times I may state the obvious it still doesn’t seem to sink into some minds in here. It’s a pragmatic compromise, I know it’s a really difficult concept for remainers to grasp, but there it is.

Away with your pragmatic compromise. Boris' 'deal' contains no mention of unicorns or cake and I see no mention of any key to the gates of the sunny uplands! Only then will Remainers consider that Brexiteers have achieved success - they have said it so many times - all else will be abject failure in their minds.

Meanwhile the Brexiteers will get on with things in that pragmatic way of theirs and Remainers will continue to whinge and sob.

Sadly yes, the positive news will be from those in business who recognise the political landscape change and get on with development of their business. They will take advantage of new opportunities and continue to prosper. Meanwhile others, ably demonstrated by some in here, will be unable to cope with the change and resort to pointless bleating.

So he has pragmatically compromised to do something that is not Brexit?

Seems odd as he appeared to be really keen on it before.

I remember that leavers on here were quite insistent that the stalemate in parliament was caused by remainers in Govt, led by May, who had agreed a Brexit deal that was 'not Brexit'.

Since Farage is now also supporting a deal that is 'not brexit' I assume he is now a remainer as well?

The idea that Brexit is a victory for pragmatism over emotion is truly an amusing inverse re-imagination when it comes to Farage and his UKIP heritage and BXO ltd present.

Farage, who he? wink

What I find amusing is those Remainers who were absolutely adamant that May’s deal was actually Brexit but are now stating that Boris’ deal is both a rehash of May’s deal and yet no longer Brexit!

I think the more level headed of all persuasions know that a compromise was always going to be the result whereas the extremists in both tails of the curve will always wail and nash teeth.
