In this bullshit as the US media is with Trump. They hang on every drop of spittle from that fucker Farage’s mouth. He likely will overplay his hand with immigration, though, because no one wants to see long term residents and Skilled Workers rounded up and deported as he suggested he’d do the other day- maybe his diehard fuckwits from Clacton. But hey, that may sink into the North Sea soon enough.
