I think Nigel has become a bit of a liability for them. I wouldn't be surprised to see a new leader if he does badly in his stupid by election.

Their problem is likely finding a replacement who could sustain a year or so of attention without anyone finding something incriminating.

There's a lot of fraudsters, traitors, sex offenders, public and loud racists/homophobes/sexists on their books.

[Edit] To this, I say "good". Let them all be found out.

Would be hard with Farage remaining owner of the party though. The leader would have to accept Farage still being top dog.

It would be such a shame if they all fought each other and backstabbed over the leadership and either outed each others arrestable crimes or split off and formed a few more of their own splinter parties.

Or has enough bluff to weather the incriminating somethings. Milkshake has, unfortunately, done a decent job of just shrugging it off until recently.

It's unlikely, but I'm still hoping his encounter with count binface throws him in the trash.

Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.

Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.

Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.

If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.

Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.
