Quote: Scarlet Pimpernell "Whoever they select must be squeaky clean or the right wing press will vilify them. I wonder if the press would be happy if Labour proposed a change to their code of practice much like Johnson is doing with the BBC and Channel 4.'"
We were talking today about who should be the next Labour leader, and it was mentioned that whoever it is will need to have a spotless past, otherwise the Mail, Sun and Express will just go with the usual Marxist, Leninist, Trotskyite, Communist smears which have the old Tory duffers pooping in their easy-waist, mail order slacks.
I threw a ringer in, and everybody laughed, until they realised he'd be absolutely perfect to throw the gutter press the biggest curve ball this century... Nigel Farage. Imagine the 360 degree turn the right wing rags and shock jocks would have to make! Not only that, he'd be able to hold their golden boy Johnson's feet to the fire on Brexit. I think he's a big enough chancer to actually take on the job, too.
