Does your idol qualify for the title of ‘politician’, given that 7 times he was rejected by the electorate? :scratchhead:

Then he managed to get a job as an MEP as a protest. Whilst there he did nothing but showboat, complaining about us not being represented, whilst not actually representing us…

as opposed to my Idol, Ari Vatanen, who fully applied himself to being a useful functioning MEP.
Mind, he had the benefit of having actually achieved something with his life beforehand👍

Exactly he wasn't even an mp and managed to win the biggest referendum of are lifetime imagine what he could do in actual power they won't let him because it would destroy that rich boys club in Westminster

It’s not that ‘they’ wouldn’t let him. He stood for election to the UK parliament 7 times, and 7 times the UK electorate said ‘no thanks’.

And 7 times parties collaborated & poured money into any constituency he stood in to make damm sure he didn't get elected, they knew full well on a Westminster stage he would do for Ukip what he did for Brexit & they were scared sh!tless it would happen!

it may have given him a lot of power/say when there was a close vote between the main parties
Given how quickly Ukip had grown in such a short time in the elections for EU representatives I'm not sure it would be a close vote between the other parties for very long.

And caning the arse out of his pay and expenses. Watched a short video of him once driving his Volvo Estate over to Brussels

I thought it was Bozo & his "green" pillocks that don't understand the countryside that all started with David get on you huskeys Cameron
There is a Carrie agenda with the likes of Goldsmith but the rot started before Johnson became PM after he flipped an opportunist coin and became a Leave advocate

Up until then Cash had dined and whined out with little effect from the back benches and Redwood got about as far as fluffing his Welsh sing along but nothing more

Then came Cummings and the Tice / Farage angle. The likes of Ken Clarke and others were marginalised
