I'm glad I'm not the only one picking up on how horrendous she is at this journalism thing. It's almost painful.

[@KatchouroBlade]

The ghoulish Kay Burley and dishonest Dougie - two more loathsome characters you'd struggle to meet.

[@leejohnson6975]

Burley.... what a terrible reporter....

[@bar-sabas4801]

Look at his head 😂😂😂😂😂looks like Manchester airport T1 runway

UKIP? what have they got to be independent from now we have started article 50.

[@monarchist1838]

There is so much more UKIP can do. We have an unelected house of Lords, undemocratic voting system for the commons. I don't think almost 4 million voters will suddenly turn to the Tories or Corbyn.

[@straightreject2947]

They should change their name. Yes democracy has happened. Let's get on with it. And just maybe if they changed their name the UK public are dumb enough to forget all the bs the leave side promised and vote them in.

[@monarchist1838]

I know and I am very glad. I simply meant the first past the post voting system of the UK Parliament for general elections should be replaced with proportional representation.

[@straightreject2947]

What we need is a miracle. I.E honest politicians.

IF UKIP GO AWAY BEFORE WE ARE OUT THEN THE GOVERNMENT WOULD MOST CERTAINLY BACKSLIDE ON ITS BREXIT PROMISE..AND LABOUR BECOME MUCH MORE DISRUPTIVE OVER BREXIT..UKIP IS THE THREAT THAT KEEPS THEM ALL IN LINE. IF UKIP FOLD NOW EVERYONES ATTITUDE IN WESTMINSTER WILL BECOME OPENLY ANTI BREXIT..2YEARS IS NOT LONG TO WAIT STAY WITH UKIP TILL THE JOB IS 100% FINNISHED.....THE WESTMINSTER RATS WILL BETRAY US IF WE DONT.
