I am so sorry to hear that this bothers you so much.

I am sorry to hear that you confuse "curiosity where opaque funding is coming from" with "bother"…

With so much self-projection going on here, you're giving Odeon Cinemas some serious competition!

Re: Reform UK's chronicles

Congratulations to Dan Thomas, who has been chosen by Farage the new Head of Reform in Wales.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/...rrer=deep-link

He will bring to Wales his relevant experience of living in London for the last 27 years (he moved there when he was 18), working in Financial Services and being a Conservative Candidate twice, and being a Conservative Councillor for 20 years (including being the Leader of Barnet Council for four years).

Amusingly, all the reporting state that "he moved away from Barnet so that he and his wife could raise their young sons in the countryside and live closer to their families in south Wales and "moved to the West Country to be closer to his family and raise his children there.", and Farage said "“Why did I pick Dan? He tells a story of someone who had to go away but loves Wales so much he wants his own children to grow up in a similar environment.

"a similar environment", "West Country", and "live closer" - so, not Wales, then?

Re: Reform UK's chronicles

I don’t give a rat’s derrière where he lives - I just think it’s unusual for someone who has appointed as Leader of a Political Party in a country not to live in the country he’s just been appointed to lead that Political Party in…

It’s like being elected as a Constituency MP, but never holding constituency surgeries in that place…

Oh wait, I see a theme emerging…

Re: Reform UK's chronicles
