One of many Cambridge street watercolours I did 30-40 years ago. Working on the spot uniquely preserves memories and feelings. The shop signs at that time in Green St were extravagantly beautiful and the passers by were sketched in quickly. Still have this one.

Farage frequently threatens to boycott the BBC, a simple google search will show you just how often he's used the threat to no effect.
Maybe this time the BBC should call his bluff and boycott him, once and for all!! Do us all a favour 🙏

It doesn’t make any difference though. People who like him don’t care that he’s a racist, anti-Semitic xenophobe. It’s part of why they like him. The stories aren’t damaging him at all. The Facebook page of the local newspaper near me is full of Enoch Powell quotes due to him.
