A reminder that two of Nigel’s children have a German mother and speak fluent German.
Good enough for his children, but not other people’s.
Are his children culture smashing or is there something different about his children and the children of Glasgow?

Brexit Effect:
UK GDP down 8%
Investment down 18%
Productivity down 4%
Employment down 4%
Immigration not cut
No trade benefits
No regulatory freedom
