IN the UK, many people are warning of the “dangers” of a Nigel Farage Government.

Farage Government could be fun from this side of Irish sea

But seen from this side of the Irish Sea, it could be absolutely hilarious.

Yeah, sure, it would almost certainly mean economic disaster for the Brits and therefore trouble for us as a major trading partner.

To say Farage’s economic policies are written on the back of a fag packet is probably giving him too much credit. His only big “win’ in politics was Brexit - a complete disaster that most Brits would reverse if they could.

His party, Reform, are firmly on the Looney Tunes side of politics. One of the main speakers at their conference this week claimed that both Phil the Greek and his son Prince (now King) Charles caught cancer because of the Covid-19 vaccine. All very normal.
