Nigel put in a very good performance on any questions - bbc radio 4. For those who missed the programme. You can hear it again here

BBC - Radio 4 - Any Questions?

I listened. It was indeed a good performance and was well received by the audience. He caught Davis completely on the hop over the European arrest warrant. The Labour guy made a complete fool of himself, with Nigel scoring points off him as well, with a simple jibe, 'it's all very well getting tough on knife crime and saying they will go to prison, there isn't enough places now etc.

I agree Bob, Nigel keep the EU out the frame on Friday and talked about other things which i think helped him.

Yes Nigel and David Davis where the best in the interview i felt, the others we're just boring and not worth listening too.

Was that the programme that featured a grown man wearing a schoolgirl frock?

I thought it was catatonically boring-almost the dullest political prog I have ever listened to-and I only did that because I was in the car.
Reflecting on this and Farage's performance he seemed at the end of the road. He appears frequently on these progs but does not have much to contibute and more important the political effect is clearly minimal.The cry for more publicity is no longer an excuse for UKIPs failings.
