Quite the stat here... Mussel production down from 10000 tonnes a year pre Brexit to 5 tonnes a year today (0.05%).
I'm sure that when Fisherman's Friend Farage was in Wales last week, he popped up to Bangor to offer his support.
Ahem.

Gove has been an extremely poisonous influence on our politics. Undermining expert consensus on Brexit [had enough of experts, etc] and lying his way through the whole process in the aftermath of the Referendum. A travesty that he is on this panel of judges assessing political writing.
I’m a past winner of the Orwell Prize & won partly because I exposed Vote Leave’s unlawful activities.
Michael Gove was its co-convener & refused to answer a single q. He’s now a judge of the prize & our world is truly one that Orwell would recognise

Remember that Farage was one of the laziest MEPs.
He rarely turned up for a vote.
I wonder what was so special about this one?😉

Just ask the bastard this one simple question.
"If a member of your party said the things you were alleged to have said, would you expel them?"
Then watch him squirm.
