Surprised they lasted this long.

What could they get in return? Heaven forbid they are financing something they believe in.

So who funded the foreigner Gina Miller?

It's when £650,000 in ILLEGAL 3rd party donations occur that are designed to obscure where the money really came from. or over £1m is donated in order to get a particular law passed, or an £1m donation is made in expectation of getting an exemption on a proposed new law.

Correct, by virtue of being born in British Guiana.

We are in pathetic biased territory and I will not agree with the bullshit smearing campaign going on here with Farage. I will vote for the Brexit Party to get what I voted for in 2016. To leave a disgusting and corrupted EU.

Say what you will about Farage, there are enough disenchanted, annoyed, frustrated, *insert similar words here* people that are listening to him because they (rightly or wrongly) believe in what he's saying and trying to do.

Compare that with the belief people have in May & Corbyn and it's probably no contest

His sales skills are not in doubt and the PR agency that runs the Brexit Party is doing a superb job.

She's not a foreigner and she self-funded.

I said it was in no way beneficial.

Again, I have no idea what your circumstances are, so couldn’t comment on how it was personally beneficial to you.

Perhaps it wasn’t legislated with you in mind?

My son was born in a British Military Hospital overseas whilst I was serving - does that make him a foreigner?

Different rules apply to Military bases. I would have thought you knew about this.

How to order records of a new or replacement birth certificate for someone born in a British Military Hospital overseas
Soldiers would have had to register the birth of their child with their respective admin department and a UK birth certificate would have been issued from the unit Registrar of Birth Deaths and Marriages.

Miller was born Gina Nadira Singh in British Guiana to Savitri and Doodnauth Singh, who later became Attorney General of Guyana. She is of Indian descent

I do know that...

My son is of Irish descent - he’s still, like Gina, not a foreigner (she was born in British Guiana when it was still a British Colony)

As the Irish have been mentioned, on this morning's R4 Farming programme, an Irish farmer said that 52% of their beef exports go to the UK and that the Brexit turmoil was causing havoc to their industry.

May's weakness has allowed the tail to wag the dog instead of waving two fingers at the EU and its Backstop nonsense.

The backstop was our idea. And why are your posts in a silly colour.?

The EU originally proposed a backstop that would mean Northern Ireland staying in the EU customs union, large parts of the single market and the EU VAT system. Its chief negotiator, Michel Barnier, continually emphasised that this backstop could only apply to Northern Ireland.
