Farage

[JohnD]

Does he fall into this category...

You mean "they’re generally considered to be more susceptible to bribery and other financial crimes due to their high profile roles, wealth and influence. This means they present a greater money laundering risk"

do YOU think he does?

 

[gant]

Do you think that all of these people

"...individuals who are or have been entrusted domestically with prominent public functions.’ Some examples of positions which qualify as PEPs are as follows:

• Senior executives in government-owned businesses, like the BBC
• Government officials
• Leaders of political parties
• Senior members of religious groups
• High-ranking military officials
• Consuls and ambassadors
• Members of the House of Lords
• Members of parliament
• Close friends or relations of any of the above"

Routinely find it impossible to open bank accounts?

If not, Farage's tale may be less than convincing.

Being a leader of a political party which qualifies (all the other categories are irrelevant in this instance) and that party being the party that influenced the referendum and went onto see Britains withdrawal from the eu and subsequently we've seen Brexit mps in the cabinet being replaced. One would be naive to think something is not going on behind the scenes with this latest targeting of the perceived 'enemy'

.... One would be naive to think something is not going on behind the scenes ...

You're talking about the idea of Russian funding of anti-EU activists?

Or just looking for a conspiracy because of a headline

You mean like Johnson's removal of all those who did not support him?

The Brexit media attacking all non-believers? The perceived enemy?

Apparently there were too many and conspired to change the result of the referendum which is where we're at presently.
Some may cheer for that others will see it as they expected it would turn out to be.

Too many what?

 

[gant]

Remainers in position of influence.

 

[JohnD]

You mean 48% of the voters should be ignored?

Replaced on merit or lack of it. After all the high profile remainer mp’s were deselected by borris out of spite.

It would be well over 50 per cent now, still time for stammer to promise a sensible trade deal.

The majority of the electorate accept the result of the vote, what we're witnessing is people of influence such as the majority of the two chambers and the civil service conspiring to make sure Brexit never had a chance to get of the ground.
Farage has said as much.

Rubbish.


You comfort yourself by setting it up as a Remain vs Leave issue.
It's not.


Not even the Leavers can agree on what "their" Brexit should look like.

So, there's fug-all chance that anyone who didn't want to Leave will have "their" version of Brexit.

Assumption of what I'm comforting myself with. What will win the 2 15 at thirsk?

Fair point.


Not a Leave vs Remain issue now though, if indeed it ever was.
