Cant believe the chucker actually found a McDonalds where the milkshake machine wasn't broken.

Farage always gets a free drink 😆

 

Notice these people wont dare go for Sunak who lets face it is more than a joke. Farage aint the problem, people who blame him for brexit, should blame the people who didnt turn up to vote.

Amritpal Singh, the jailed Sikh separatist and chief of pro-Khalistan group Waris Punjab De, won from Punjab’s Khadoor Sahib Lok Sabha constituency, data from the Election Commission showed.

 

Singh, who is fighting the election as an independent candidate, is currently in Assam’s Dibrugarh jail.

 

Singh won with a margin of 1,97,120 votess and secured 4,04,430 votes of the 10,47,165 total votes. Congress leader Kulbir Singh Zira was trailing at 2,07,310 votes.

 

On April 23, 2023, the Punjab Police arrested the self-styled Sikh preacher from Moga after he had been on the run for over a month. The 29-year-old was flown to Assam on a special flight and sent to the Dibrugarh Central Jail.

The Punjab Police began cracking down on members of Waris Punjab De, or heirs of Punjab, days after Singh and his supporters stormed a police station in Amritsar on February 23, 2023. This came after one of Singh’s aides was arrested for alleged assault and attempted kidnapping.

 

Singh had garnered a significant following with his speeches centred around Punjab’s youth and the Sikh religion. He had also publicly supported the demand for Khalistan, an independent state for Sikhs.

Khadoor Sahib is one of 13 Lok Sabha seats in the state. The constituency comprises nine Assembly segments. In 2019, Congress candidate Jasbir Singh Gill won the Khadoor Sahib constituency with a margin of 1.4 lakh votes.

Polling for the seat this time took place in the seventh and final phase of the election on June 1.

 

The counting of votes for the 2024 Lok Sabha election is underway. As per the trends at 3.30 pm, the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party-led National Democratic Alliance was leading in about 242 seats, data from the Election Commission showed. The Opposition INDIA bloc was ahead in about 236 seats.

 

Polling across 542 parliamentary constituencies was held across seven phases between April 19 and June 1. The Lok Sabha has 543 seats and a party or coalition needs 272 seats to form the government.

Farage just been milkshaked. Again.

He stood amongst a noisy aggressive crowd covered in sticky sweet smelling liquid, almost slipping on a thick yellowy goo on the floor and with a drinks container smeared in somebody else’s saliva…..then he stepped out of Wetherspoons and had a milkshake thrown at him!

Gun fired, vehicle abandoned, man arrested, bomb squad out and a couple of controlled explosions in Braunstone Town. All homes nearby evacuated and were so for a good 7/8 hours. 
 

Absolutely nothing on the local tv news about it (that I’ve seen anyway).

Incredibly coming out of the Post Office Inquiry this morning is that they were doubts about Paula Vennells capability in her role as CEO in 2014!!

 

And this was 5 years before she actually left the Post Office with a "golden goodbye" and gong, unbelievable.

The D-Day memorial ceremony last night was unbelievably good. Goosebumps through almost all of it.

Unbelievable the amount of soldiers storming the beaches of Normandy who were killed for freedom and democracy, now we get boats after boats setting off from safe French beaches storming British beaches. Our troops would be turning in their graves.

Biden doesn’t stand a chance in November. His speech is declining (I know he had difficulties anyway) and he has aged so much in the last year. Trump being coherent will be enough to win it.

Can there be a ‘no result’ then ?

No matter how badly I wanted the Tories to get reamed at this election, this is just beyond my wildest speculation. 
 

Like watching Rudkin handing out contracts, it just keeps getting worse. You think, oh he can’t fvck it up anymore - and there he goes again.

Will Trump have to operate from the Jail House rather than the White House?
