Farage grifts nigh on a million a year and begrudges the most disadvantaged kids a burger. If there's ever a definition of being an utter scumbag then there it is.

I'll be cooking an Alsace onion tart this evening and remembering the happy years I spent writing Citizens, around 30 years ago... some chapters written in an A frame house overlooking Lake Tahoe!

Nigel Farage MP Keir Starmer Absolutely not, Farage! We do not want a rapist, a felon, and a likely paedophile anywhere near our Parliament. In fact, he shouldn’t be allowed in the country. America would not accept so a person if it were the other way around. #FuckTrump

🚨 BREAKING: Catholic clergy from coast to coast are hitting the streets, rosaries in hand, to denounce Trump’s “human–rights–are-optional” immigration playbook. When the bishops drop the incense and pick up protest signs, you know the moral high ground just shifted and Team
