I cannot see where the actual venue is in Redcar, I assume you’re only told once you’ve paid up

[Andy McDandy]

It's what it says. A red car. A burned out red car smelling of tramp wee on a bit of waste ground.

Pay £1.50, arrive, have £3 drink, leave.

Apparently, that Dutch hooch is "Quintessentially British".

He's deficient, isn't he?

[satnav]

I think the word 'quintessentially' is doing a lot of heavy lifting in his promotional material.

[RedSparrows]

Cuntessentially, amirite.

(Sorry, it's Monday morning. No subtelty here).

Googling 'quintessentially' throws up some very interesting information. Apparently it is the name of a company set up by Ben Elliot and a couple of his chums providing an international concierge service for the rich a powerful. Apparently many of their clients were Russian oligarchs. I'm not really sure the co-chairman of the Conservative Party should be involved in such an enterprise given it could easily lead to a conflict of interest,

[Yug]

When your only real interest is in furthering your own bank balance, where's the conflict?

Besides, he, like most of his fellow-travellers in the Tory Party seem to be of the "It's me doing it so it must be alright" mindset, he won't care what other people think. Recognising something as a conflict of interest is something the Tories don't do particularly well. I present Ernest Marples as Exhibit A.

Hasn't the company been going for about 15 years.
See all the "Playing tennis with the Russians", "Drinking champers with the Russians", "Getting donations form the Russians".

You may term me a xenophobe, as all those donations came from registered voters with proper passports and everything.

It only starts looking dodgy when you learn that the ones who fast-tracked their passports then received the donations.

And he’s now resigned!

Michael White pointed out that Sunak is UK’s first genuine Brexit PM* What is Nigel’s problem?

* Another accolade Corbyn failed to achieve.

[davidjay]

It's going to be, well, not exactly fun, but interesting. Nargle, GBNews, the ERG, the #BBBers. All of them are running out of excuses so it's down to old-fashioned dog whistling now.

[Youngian]

‘Like Jeffrey Dahmer complaining about the smell from the fridge’ is the best one I’ve read. But feel free to add your own .

For those not familiar with the person on the right, that's the professional kickboxer, professional dickhead, alleged sex trafficker and biggest loser on social media in 2022 (Ko'd by Greta Thunberg in Round 1), Andrew Tate.

A man is known by the company he keeps - applies to both of 'em.

Farage is clearly struggling for guests at the moment because tonight he was talking to Alex Reid a former kickboxer who was once married to Katie Price. He also had another bloke on spreading anti-vax nonsense. Whilst he described the guest as a former civil servant at the ONS to give him credibility he didn't seem to mention that the guy was also a former Brexit Euro MP.

Farage also seems to have shot himself in the foot over the fact that Kiwi will no longer be exporting their products to the UK. He reacted to the news by saying in future he would use the good old British company Cherry Blossom. The only slight problem with that is that Cherry Blossom is now owned by a large multinational company called 'Grangers' who judging by their website have values that probably don't chime with Farage's. The factory is about 3 miles up the road from where I live and it is built on an industrial estate that relies heavily on migrant workers who are bussed in every day.
