So Nigel Farage has resurfaced, as sharks do, with his new, shiny ‘Brexit Party’. Firstly because he is all and only about leaving Europe and secondly because he is quite uncanny at harnessing the feelings of ‘the people’, particularly if those people are keen to leave Europe. So to all Brexiteers, Farage’s new shtick is the ‘second coming’. It’s like when Jurgen Klinsman came back to Spurs when we were in trouble. The new messiah. Be very interesting if there was a general election, Farage won, became PM, took us duly and immediately and democratically out of Europe and then…

Then what? Resign? Dissolve the party? Or move over to the Far Right like UKIP did when it got bored with ‘playing nice’ and didn’t have anything else to talk about.

But on the other ‘team’ we now have ‘Change UK’, the quasi-party that started life as a few disgruntled remainer MPs pissed off with Corbyn and May and forming The Independent Group. Which has since metamorphosised into ‘Change UK’, probably with an exclamation mark or two, just so you know its not same old same old but something new and revolutionary. Without the revolution. But to their credit, at least they are ‘centrist’ which is a good thing. And they’re all ‘remainers’, which is a bad thing for 52% of the voters.

And maybe we’re ready for something new. Because if the last decades haven’t dulled our keenness on the 2-party status quo, then the last 2 years have killed it off completely. The Tories, currently, are worse than useless and for any right-minded individual of a non-Trotskyist leaning, Corbyn represents the death of the nation, should he ever lead it. God for-fucking-bid.

So where goes one’s political allegiance? If you’re a natural Tory (you know who you are), then which of the 17 infighting factions therein do you currently ‘support’? You’ll need to choose which Tory party you want from within the disordered and murderous ranks. Which cheating, back-stabbing, self-serving nob do you fancy?

And if you’re a Labour person, does your leftist centrism go as far as the Corbyn/McDonnell vision of red flags, party berets and the bullying totalitarianism that they really want? Are you comfortable with a man whose hatred of Israel is so great that he has allowed rabid, unchecked anti-semitism to run through the entire party machine? A man whose idealistic ‘model’ of a fine nation is Venezuela. Currently on the verge of civil war with rabid inflation, no medicine and a starving population.

I’m ready for a change. Just not sure if I’m ready for a Change UK, but it’s possible. Anything would seem better than what we’re currently enduring.

Happy Wednesday, except for distraught Manchester United fans. Well, what d’ya expect from Messi & Co.?

For Spurs tonight is a ‘destiny match’. The biggest, almost ever.
