My wife and I had an argument about this the other day. She thinks Farage doesn’t want to be PM because too much work, etc. Personally I think he would utterly fucking love to be PM so he could (in his own mind) be held as an equal of Churchill, Thatcher, and any other far higher achieving politician. He craves validity and this would give him all he could ever wish for.

I don’t, for a moment, think he’d put the hours in and do any work. He’s spent his entire political life doing sweet fuck all (as a statement) and I doubt he’d turn around and change.
