Re: YES! Farage Milkshaked
Both sides (on here and elsewhere) as bad as each other. Whether it's Farage refusing to discuss his "other" "policies" or people on here refusing to accept what "national" means, it's the same problem. Of course, it's much more important when it's Farage because he matters much more, but it's the s...

Re: YES! Farage Milkshaked
Fair enough, but there's a pretty strong clue in the title of the polling card: ELECTION OF MEMBERS OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT FOR THE NORTH WEST REGION So it's an election for an EU assembly held on a regional (not national) basis, but I do agree that it's rather a pedantic point to make.
