:Ummm:
Correct! And IDS is quite tall. Perhaps his personality is odious. I'd go along with that.Quote:

Edit: It is Edinburgh West, saw a bigger image and the small print confirms it's "Printed, published & promoted on behalf of Christine Jardine’"
If the Libs didn't exist, most of them would be in Labour and it would shift to be more centrist.Quote:

I can see where the SNP are coming from in an area I presume isn't too hot on indy, but I think being so "meh" on independence the last time around meant a lot of pro yes voters stayed at home while Ruth got the unionist vote out and the SNP ended up 20 seats down.Quote:

My constituency and I will be campaigning for the SNP and the main message from me will be about the benefits to be gained from Scotland being an independent nation. Not sure who thought that leaflet is the best way forwardQuote:

Crack open a bottle of fine wine and sit back for 3 minutes of Trump and Farage on LBC :greengrin.
Not sure how Farage is going to play this election yet.
Two bit of useful info there. Trump thinks Boris’s deal rules out a trade deal with America and it looks like Farage is going to go after Boris in the election.Quote:

If Farage and Johnson make a pact then we're ****ed.

Maybe not. Farage is toxic with more centrist voters. Might help the Lib Dem’s v Tories in their marginals.Quote:

Add “#NotForSale” to that... early days, yet. Tho: https://t.co/uahDc9eTn3
A campaign based on the Tories trading off the nhs to get a trade deal with Trump could be very effective.Quote:

For instance, most people were v sceptical about the polling that predicted the SNP 2015 surge before the actual results came in.Quote:

Farage due to speak in a few mins so we'll find out what he's planning ...
