Predictably, the snivelling neofascist Farage has been caught red handed trying to weasel out of paying his fair share of tax. The Mirror is reporting that he set up a trust fund in the isle of Man. Of course he makes excuses for himself: he claims he was advised to do it, and that he ”set it up on behalf of somebody else.” Bull! There is only one reason why anyone would set up such a trust: to avoid contributing to society. Farage is a greedy, manipulative, power-hungry dissembler who should be ignored as the xenophobe he is.

Mind you, as predictable as it was, I’m glad this story came out. P’tahk though he is, pressure was mounting on CaMoron over his taxes, particularly from the outist papers. Those wanting to leave the EU saw an opportunity to discredit the leader of the in campaign; the hypocrisy being that the paper doing that most, the express, is owned by two of the biggest tax dodgers of them all (or so I’m told). At least now we have a counterpoint: the chief outist is a tax-dodger too.
