Given the promises that where made in the build up to the referendum and for a number of years prior by a fair selection of MP's i really would have expected some kind of strategy by now .

This is just about feeding Farage's massive ego. A man who thinks two of the largest economies in the world, two members of the UN security council and two senior members of the NATO alliance should forego the State Department and Foreign Office, bypass the Secretary of State and the Foreign Secretary and ignore all the existing diplomatic ties and conduct affairs though him, Ol' Nigel, instead. He actually seemed quite upset that the Prime Minster of the United Kingdom chooses not to conduct her foreign policy though some jumped up egomaniac. 
As for Steve Bannon it is a worrying sign of his amateurishness for the role. |
It's a bit like when you go to America and a yank thinks you know his pal even though he lives 300 miles away because it's such a small country everyone must know everyone else
