Farage lunched with Murdoch, Liam Fox the day before his resignation. Fox was in the leadership contest, but his speech was little more than a pitch for Foreign Secretary. Murdoch looks to be backing Andrea Leadsom, a ultra-reactionary ultra-religious rabidly-brexit homophobic hatemonger who is likely to put Farage in the House of Lords and give him a cabinet position.
Andrea Leadsom has attracted loads of UKIP entryists who have joined the Tory party (yes, im going on about entryism again) and will vote in the leadership contest alongside the already reactionary Tory grassroots (rich racist pensioners), so she could well be the next Prime Minister, She will then face a Tory backbench rebellion from the majority of Tory MPs as they oppose her.
So we have TWO parties wracked with entryism and extremist leadership and members, both with rebellious MP’s doing everything they can to stop their batshit insane leaders from driving their parties off a cliff.
Corbyn has just about succeeded in his dream of destroying the Labour Party, it will be split within a month or two. I’ve no idea whats going on with Labours position on brexit, the entire party is locked in a row about Chilcot report, Iraq and Blair, and its now at the stage that Momentum are hand-delivering death threats to Labour activists, vandalising Labour offices and organising massive hate mobs against rebel MPs on social media.
Oh, and yes, Brexit, the collapse of the UK economy, the death of the pound and what ever else is linked to it.
The MP in charge of Brexit organisation in Whitehall, expenses fiddler and security risk Oliver Letwin, has spent a few weeks concluding that there is no plan, there still isnt a plan, no one knows what they are doing, no one has the skills or experience to deal with this, and the entire legal apparatus of the UK is in disagreement on what is a completely new sector of constitutional law.
The UK government is completely dysfunctional.
