We’d not glimpsed much of Führage recently, and then the old wag rocked up in a tank with Derrick Chisora for the latter’s blowhard swingfest with Detontay Wilder.

Incidentally, nominal determinist Wilder is the guy who claimed to Piers Morgan that his girlfriend got up the duff by scraping spooge off her body and ‘injecting’ herself.

Ah, that old chest-nut.

But back to Nige, and his Ed Davey stunt with Tommy Führy vibe.

With May elections approaching, he’s now anticipating the (Harvey) price of his Trumpian bromance, and his career feels like it’s fizzling fast.

The current global gloom is what goes down when one berk with unlimited power, hubris, and no plan embarks on a bender.

To the UK electorate, Nigel oozes similar potential, and they’re recoiling faster than they might from a Kevin Spacey Vaseline handshake.

Reality always hits harder than political ideology, and sky-high energy tabs usually dictate both direction and pace. Consequently, the UK is now biting the pillow and bracing itself for closer ties with the EU.  Markedly, even in the chav heartlands, this has not raised a single tattooed eyebrow. Not even a hint of ‘Brexit betrayal’ from Führage himself.

In the face of carnage, even rank incompetence garners approbation. Keith Starmer is now re-emerging as a viable electoral pick, though the spectre of stealth bummer Wes Streeting probably helped to give the populace the poke it needed.

Better the devil you know, and all that.
