Farage is so two faced - I'm surprised he doesn't still want a seat in the Brussels Parliament just so he can have the salary.
Ooh Farsge calls for EU to probe Mendelson’s time in Brussels
Fun Fact — In 2018, a European Parliament investigation found Farage had misused public funds, leading to his MEP salary being docked by €40,000 to recover the money
Fiddling expenses I believe some may call it.. 🤷🏼♂️

Presumably, there will be a similar one hour special on Zack Polanski, and whether The Greens are ready to lead, as well?

And yet, in the House of Lords, we still have Lebedev - a national security risk if ever there was one; Mone - who defrauded all of us of tens of millions - and countless other unsavoury characters elevated by Johnson, Cameron and all the rest of their corrupt ilk.
The government has:
1. Referred Mandelson to the police for investigation over leaking sensitive information while in government
2. Decided it *will* try to strip Mandelson of his peerage after all.
That’s both throwing him under the bus and then reversing to make sure in one fell swoop.
