Now picture being a wee medieval coastal villager in Britain and hearing three or four boatloads of that coming out of the Haar at you.

I think the “squabbling” between the coalition is all orchestrated so they can appear discrete from each other in the run up to the election. It’s an act.

Unless he changes position, Labour will lose & Britain will have Farage as PM
