That's not the term I'd have used. It was close, mind, very close.
Happy Christmas.
You too mate, & well done last night on that 2nd place finish in the UKOPS Main.

Obviously not nasty enough.
Can't see it myself.
I seriously reckon this is going to happen I guess its just a matter of when not if at this point.
lol, that's Premier League quality squirming. Politicians eh?
Meanwhile, Musk sticking it in Farage's eye really puts the cat amongst the pigeons, Nigel won't be at all happy.
A thoroughly dreadful person. Has he ever done a day's work in his life?
You would think that a man with that much money could afford to employ someone to find out the facts, before opening his mouth.
However he appears to have no interest in facts.
You would think that he would have an interest in not looking stupid.
Although this seems not to be the case either.
Farage is a snake-oil salesman. A very good one. If you like that sort of thing. Which I don't.
He is one of those toddlers who still believe that the World revolves around them. Something we all did. Until we were about 8 years old.
But he has a dilemma right now. One he has never faced before.
His particular brand of schtick is very popular in the short-term. But not (so far) in the medium term. That is why he gets enormous press coverage. Gets millions of votes. But never gets anywhere remotely close to real power. He makes the Lib Dems look successful. He has won less seats than Plaid Cymru in his political career.
He is 60 years old. Now is the time when he needs to demonstrate that he can (at the very least) be the 2nd biggest Party in 5 years' time.
To do that, he needs massive financial support. And a Musk could provide that financial muscle.
Here's the thing. Farage is perfectly happy to seek support from the Far Right. But he does not wish to be told what to do by them. Perfectly happy to feed the Far Right with Soundbites-but nothing that in any way provides the sort of action such people want.
Which is (of course) why he despises the Tommy Robinsons of this World. He may want the "Little Englander" vote. But he does not share the beliefs of such people.
So. Does he seek Musk money, knowing it his likeliest route towards power? Knowing that he would be placing himself in a political straitjacket? Because, otherwise, I cannot see Reform gaining sufficient seats to get anywhere near power in his political lifetime.
I suspect he has already made his choice. He's not going there.
I suspect he wants to take over the Conservative Party
PS. Trump's silence is deafening. And, actually, a smart move. Bet he can't stick to that though
Excellent analysis there by @Essexphil
