BB.If you start from the position that the person you are talking to is a mendacious hypoctrite, you'll convince yourself that there is mendacious hypocrisy in everything they say. And you'll ignore what they actually say, preferring to convince yourself that what they really believe is what you want them to believe. Good luck with that outlook.
I’m surprised by this. Nick Clegg has announced that there is “absolutely no evidence” that Russia influenced the Brexit vote using Facebook. Considering the claims and counter claims of Russian meddling in the vote in certain sections of the media AND who it is making the statement, this is pretty remarkable. I wonder if anyone who’d made the claims that FB was used by Russia to influence the vote will now stand corrected? Of course, that’s not to say they didn’t use any other means bar FB

I never thought I'd ever welcome anything said by Nick Clegg.I know one or two on here who'll feel a bit embarrassed by that.
Looks like Farage thinks Boris is a wibble wobble, doesn't know what he stands for.''Boris Johnson does speak to Steve Bannon, says Nigel FarageBrexit party leader’s comments increase pressure on No 10 frontrunner to address claims''''At the same event on Monday, Farage said he would back Johnson as prime minister, but only if he pushed for a no-deal Brexit on 31 October, saying he did not trust him to do this'' “He’ll have my support if he does the right thing. But I don’t know what he’s going to do,” Farage said. “I’d love to know who the real Boris Johnson is, I’d love to know what he really, really, truly believes. Our attitude, as the Brexit party, is why would we trust anybody?”https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2019/jun/24/nigel-farage-deal-tories-ensure-no-deal-brexit-boris-johnson
