It just confers legitimacy on anti-immigration as a policy platform and means that people will go, well, if we really hate immigrants, we're going to vote for the party that's really going to do something about this.

You know, the Conservative Party of Britain right now is a kind of shattered husk of its former self after having spent the best part of the 21st century attempting to head off Nigel Farage by imitating elements of his rhetoric and borrowing policies and referendum ideas from him.

If the Labour Party is not willing to learn the mistakes of the Conservative Party, then it will consign itself to the same political dustbin that the Conservative Party seems to be wedging its way into.

It's good that you bring up Farage and immigration in this context, Coco, because Farage has actually been having some immigration problems of his own.

You just want to have a drink down the pub with him and compare notes on your private jet and which bit of the Maldives is best.

for activities relating to political theatre.

I was trying to take a dump in the vegetable aisle at Sainsbury's and the woke left dragged me out and arrested me.

By the way, I took a private jet there, even though it was the Sainsbury's in Derby and I was in London.

Now that is one boat I do want stopped.

Still to come, good news.

We've actually got two bits of good news.
