By Joe Mellor, Deputy Editor I’m quite paranoid and believe the whole world is a conspiracy (against who, I’m not certain), but I am sure there was a very elaborate planned “joke,” during today’s PMQs. The sting began with Robert Jenrick, Con, who said of Miliband’s economic policy, “to be ...
By Darragh Roche Schoolchildren are the latest to ridicule UKIP, and the parody keeps on coming. Nigel Farage now has a virtual alter ego as violent racist Nicholas Fromage, star of a new mobile game.
