Awww...in a strange way, I'm kinda going to miss him - turning up on telly every few months like a great big cartoon, noisily chipping away at UKIP's credibility.

Regarding your question...umm...is the Monster Raving Loony still around?

[sp1814]

In all seriousness...I don't think Farage should have taken the whip from him, because it now appears that UKIP have now caved in to political correctness!

If Viz did politics ...

[sandyRoe]

My own view is that he might have made a colourful addition to the ranks of backbench Tory peers in the upper chamber.

his departure makes Ukip more electable. I don't find this any cause for rejoicing.

[sandyRoe]

But they would draw their vote from the wilder edge of the Tory party. Can't be a bad thing that The Right is split.

I wasnt going to answer on this subject at all but anyone who thinks the *** thing was a anything but a joke needs to get a life. Its alright for Farage to joke about beer and fags and other personal restrictiions (but not his French name!) but Bloom cannot joke about housework, which has been a joke subject for as long as I can remember.

[johnny37]

Funny, the censors at AB has deleted the word sl@t!!!!!

Why not? He will only be credible if sufficient people support what he says. This is democracy in action so we should all rejoice.

[jake-the-peg]

I'm certainly rejoicing - the more UKIP splits the Tory vote the better I like it

[craft1948]

I love Bloom's remark about him not being part of New UKIP the same as Dennis Skinner was not part of New Labour........

[sandyRoe]

Farage may rue the day he left. Lyndon Johnston once said, 'In politics it's better to have a trouble maker inside the tent peeing out, than outside peeing in'.

[brionon]

Would that be Leopold Bloom ? Always fancied Molly !

[sandyRoe]

No. Leopold was a decent, humane, man. He wouldn't have touched UKIP with a bargepole.
Molly has her hands full with that straw-hatted cad, Boylan.

[mikey4444]

To answer sandys question head-on, could Bloom try Bongo-Bongo perhaps ?

[brionon]

sandyRoe. Yes Yes Yes !

[FredPuli43]

Protest voting is one thing;that's what UKIP get; but general election voting is quite another. The Tories are canny enough to make the right noises about the EU and immigration, and shouldn't worry.

Is there a men- only golf club party? Bloom should found one if there isn't.

[FredPuli43]

johnny, try putting an S on the end of the offending word; it worked for me earlier. The censor doesn't find the plural of that word for slattern to be improper.

[jno]

he'd be better off founding a men-only fridge-cleaning party as the job is not being done properly at the moment.
