Amusing ........... yes, no doubt. Surprising .......... not at all.

Farage's record of taking on the EU and "changing the EU from the inside" is nothing less than pathetic.

He has attended the fewest European parliamentary votes of any party in the EU's 28 countries.

Since 1999 he has collected his salary as an MEP together with generous expenses each year. Some of those expenses claims have been questioned and would provide for a interesting debate all on their own
