In 14 years, Tory justice secretaries couldn’t even add 500 places to the prison estate. Why should anyone believe the Tories are capable of increasing capacity by 50,000 in half that time? This is cloud cuckoo land politics. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/ck9q…

Tories pledge to build 50,000 new prison places

The party says its proposals would stop prisoners being released early and cut crime.

This is a particularly important point. It renders the offensive and manufactured argument, put forward by one of my parliamentary colleagues on Question Time, as nothing more than solid gold nonsense.

Well this is awkward: "The surname "Farage" originates from a distant Huguenot ancestor. Genealogical findings show his lineage traces back to Georgius Ferauge, born in 1681 in Fumay, France, near the modern-day Belgian border. This ancestor emigrated to Berkshire, England, in the early 1700s, and the surname gradually anglicized from Ferauge to Ferridge and finally Farage".
