    Reform will probably implode long before the GE. And fromage will have a meltdown, as he can't stand anything other than softball "interviews", and fawning. That's been my position for a long time.

    why is loss of freedom of movement in eu seen as a big deal

    People do crappy things, and sometimes fate catches up with them. It's called karma. Like you were as happy as a pig in muck when you clocked the would be moped thief.

    why is loss of freedom of movement in eu seen as a big deal

    How you think another country should run its affairs.............. And you voted Leave because, in part, you were offended at the thought of other countries having a say in how we run ours. Irony, hypocrisy, and cognitive disconnect all rolled into one (y)

    House price gravy train may have hit the buffers

    We must have very different acquaintance groups then as, with me having two kids under 24 and therefore knowing dozens of similarly-aged of their mates, I don't know any who lead that lifestyle. And I don't read the Wail, nor watch GeeBeebies.

    How many newly-elected reformists have been suspended or ejected so far?

    If Reform kicked out the bad apples, John would have none to pick, wouldn't you agree? That said, if Reform did kick out the bad apples, they'd have very few left.
