Claimed a box of votes were delivered 2 hours after the counting had started in Philly. Well hello - how far did they have to travel from where they were collected to where they were counted you thick pillock? There's many an election box of votes that turns up at a counting station here hours after they start the count.
He was also getting on the case of postal votes, over here and over there. These would be the same postal votes that have allowed me to vote for the last 5-6 years or more when I wasn't able to vote in person since I was 20 something as I was always on the road on business.
I don't understand why the earth allows him to breathe our precious oxygen let alone why the BBC give him the oxygen to spread his BS to be honest. I guess it's called free speech but quite honestly, Alastair Campbell wasn't on the ball quick enough to call out some of his crap. Just had my interweb changed this afternoon so didn't hear what Jeremy Whines listeners had to say about him.
He's absolute poison Theo. For years he has had huge press coverage to tell constant lies and misinformation about the EU, and about europeans and its been lapped up mostly without question. He's doing the same now with the postal votes.
Brexit was designed by the Brexiteers to be good news for a small cabal of Poshos and Right wing billionaires - they never thought it would be good for Britain as a whole and they never intended it to be: it never could have been either, as everyone with any knowledge of the subject has pointed out.
Unfortunately it needed someone like Farage to front it because the only way it could fly with the plebs in England was if it was fronted by someone playing the race card, and the yellow teethed populist is adept at that.
Whats left now ? Well the EU will happily help U-turn Bojo claim a victory on a deal.... with some formulation..... and provided he accepts reality.
