He's okay I guess but a bit of a one trick pony. He only has one policy - hatred of the EU. If he was ever PM that would influence everything he did - rightly or wrongly.

I'm watching him on Capital Account with Lauren Lyster right now, I reckon he's cool (but Lauren Lyster is supercool)!

He's one track, simplistic solutions.

In the short term he's right, europe with the eurocrats is a dumb as they want to pull all power into them and can't construct a system structure that makes sense or works.

However, europe is also a major market for the UK, and has many sociological ties as well - so you have to get on and work with them - you can't just hate, hate, hate.

And I haven't heard him promote policies for the UK that make sense in the UK - he's all outward focus to protect ..... what?

He's just capitalising upon the growing unrest within the U.K towards the united states of Europe.
Everyone needs a drum to bash

Been watching his videos for years - he's the most articulate man in the political circuit.

And he loathes those dangerous creeps who are trying quite successfully to extinguish democracy in Europe, including the UK.

It's nice to see someone with political conviction rather than a hunger for power at all costs like most of the rest.
