We\u2019re just genuinely terrified at what could happen to this country if people listen to the slick, media savvy cult of Farage rather than actually looking at his policies\u2026 So anything we can do in our small way to make people question his political motives is something we\u2019re delighted to be involved in.\u201d<\/i><\/p>\n<p>Once again <b>Alcopop!
