Does he know where Clacton is
@
Was this anti-establishment video for the anti-establishment Reform filmed at GB news? 😂

And to try and sidestep the investigation into his financial misdeeds...

People who don’t think reform is the establishment are delusional
@
I so hate that man!
@
he was an MP? He never showed up
@
Bent as a nine bob note used to be a phrase describing charlatans back in the day
@
Pattern of behaviour. Rarely showed up as a MEP for over 2 decades yet claimed he was ENTITLED to the pension. Now and MP, rarely shows up. After Brexit he vanished from view when the farming and fishing communities went down the toilet.

It is not in this mans character to be responsible and accountable for ANYTHING. He doesn't want the job as PM but he wants the prestige and access it provides him.
@
Doesn't mean that he shouldn't declare the £5m gift or another gifts.
@
He's only been to Clacton twice! LOL.
@
Hes resigning to stand again? Is that what he's saying
@
Weak... If he thought no one had an issue with his £5m so called gift.
@
this guy is quite literally THE establishment lol
@
This is the second time he's done this
@
Never there anyway. Lets waste more public money.
@
He is so much part of the establishment. The hypocrisy is unbelievable. 😮
@
Conman. Pass the snakeoil.😂
@
Sooo ... that's a new defense is it? I'm not guilty if I can win a popularity contest.
@
Doing it to dodge a suspension, what an honorable liar and inciter he is.

UK politics is like watching theatre kids act out a shoddy play
