I like your key point, which I haven't seen stated quite so neatly elsewhere, which that Farage is also a manufactured character. Binface is part of a great British tradition and it's wonderful that he has suddenly upended UK politics. Whatever happens now, that is true. Thank you.

Yes, Mark he will win but anyone can win against Binface, which as you say, is the point! Fox is just a vile entitled racist bigot so hopefully Binface will get more votes but I wouldn't bank on it. Farage has gathered a lot of fellow right wing racist bigots, but I am hoping he will continue to look the arrogant nasty little creep that he is and always had been. Man of the people - really a con man, but he has managed to fool quite a few people but luckily not us all.

After the junta fell in Greece, some hapless extreme right-winger decided to stand for Parliament. His public speeches generated large crowds, but not the kind he would have liked. People came with placards demanding "Make nuns where miniskirts" "Bring the sea to Trikala" (a decidedly inland town), and chanting slogans that sounded like restaurant orders. He was never heard from again. I miss those days.
