George Osborne has attacked Nigel Farage for using “pretty disgusting” rhetoric about the threat of migrants sexually attacking women and refugee bodies washing up on British beaches.
In a marked escalation of attacks on the Ukip leader and by extension the entire leave campaign, the chancellor singled out Farage for representing a “mean-spirited, narrow and divisive” vision of Britain. He said that “tendency” was now coming to dominate the anti-EU campaign.
Speaking to reporters on a campaign visit to a Scottish sheep and beef farm with Scottish Tory leader Ruth Davidson, Osborne said:
The Nigel Farage tendency is taking over their argument and you’re increasingly getting this Farage vision of Britain, with all this talk of bodies washing up the sea shores and women being at risk of sexual assault from migrants.
It is pretty disgusting. And we want to say no to it. We want to say that is not the country we are. We’re a country that is big and bold and strong, and united, and we want to say no to this mean-spirited, divisive, negative view of Britain that you get from Nigel Farage and company.
Mr. Eagles, yeah, we know Osborne's tactic is shout 'Nigel Farage' at every opportunity.
Could backfire. Hopefully will. It's not a legitimate argument. [I do think there are some legitimate arguments for staying, though these are outweighed by those for leaving. Shouting 'Nigel Farage' is as reasonable as shouting 'Tony Blair'].

I was out down the pub last night with gentlemen of the village. And while it's hardly surprising I wouldn't piss on George if he was on fire, I was somewhat taken aback by one bloke who's views on Osborne made me look a fan.
It's the first time Ive come across a property developer who's all for smash the state.
@sarahwollaston: To be clear, 1.I have not asked for or been offered any Govt post 2.I have not deleted any of my EU tweets 3. I am not auditioning for 007
Except we can no longer trust a word she says.
You mean like Boris or did he change his mind on principle?

But we're voting on staying with or leaving the EU, not staying with or leaving Nigel Farage. It's a grubby approach, although they do seem to have dropped the 'Little England' line.
Edited extra bit: also, Lake Manor is (or has been recently) a #1 in the US, Canada and Australia, and even hit #27 in the overall paid list in Canada. Damned impressive given it's the publisher's first book.
Like Robert Peel in another time he puts the country first - Boris is the party man and like Disraeli of yore he'll betray the Leave agenda if he gets the chance.
There's precious little evidence Cameron puts the country first. His friends and cronies certainly but not the nation.
If you cannot see the evidence you need to take off those blinkers.

I am sure Dr Wollaston has been acting from the highest principles throughout, but it does seem to follow that she's been remarkably blinkered to the scope of the issue we're about to vote on. Still is, in fact. Her judgment up to yesterday was that it would be in the best interests of the UK to leave the EU; and now it's all about the NHS alone.

Nigel is a Brexiteer. He and the DUP will not like it as it will strengthen the remain vote in the audience they were speaking to.
It does look as if there is now a full frontal co-ordinated attack on leave, which is going to be coming from many directions, not just blue on blue. Nicola Sturgeon and Angela Eagle v Boris tonight, Corbyn' TV debate to young people on the 20th, and Khan v Boris towards the end of the campaign. Many on here last night dismissed Sarah Wollaston as a non story and I did warn that it would be huge today on the broadcast media. It has and in spades but what on earth has possessed leave to accuse her of not wanting to put more money in the NHS. She is chair of the Health Select Committee and that comment is an avoidable own goal and has been called out by the Sky reporter

I find it very puzzling.

£163 million* a week is still a lot of money.
(*that of course is based on the NET amount of £8.5 billion given to Brussels in 2015)

Off topic - I know we have a lot of gamers on here. Might I recommend checking out dead by daylight as a really interesting new game that will be available in the next few days.
Also sad to hear that the hitman game has tanked. IMO up there for best game so far this year, but then it requires a lot of work.

It is not just the NHS alone, she is expressing concern on the economic impact and is also unhappy at the way leave are dealing with the immigration issue.

The DUP are the largest party and their people turn out to vote. The nationalists don't like british PMs telling them what to do. can't see that helping Remain
The analysis in Ulster was they came over to NI because they couldn't go to Scotland or fear of upsetting the locals. I suspect they'll piss a lot of the NI locals off.

She is both chair of the Health Select Committee and a FORMER NHS DOCTOR. Leave are having a bad week.
You play as either a murder or one of four survivors trying to escape the play area. I think with a bit more development / tweaks it could be very very good. I would say inspired by h1z1 type game, but has a lot of interesting things going for it & possibility to do some really cool things going forward.

Not just episodic, but they do these contracts that will appear for 2-3 days & then gone forever. Once you have been killed or you killed the target the contract can't be replayed. Which seems very silly...effectively create a new level & then only make available temporarily.
The levels released so far as fantastic. The Ai is slightly lacking in places, but I think the general concept is great. My fear is because it is tanking we won't see this kind of really open ended slow moving game attempted again for the foreseeable...instead just more fifa this, tomb raider that...where as witcher & hitman are superb & different.

Im sure they were, but that they felt they needed to go there and say things the unionists would find imflammatory and the nationalists patronising shows how worried Remain are.
I reckon their private polling and canvas returns must be dire.

Mr. Urquhart, depends if they attribute low sales to the weird distribution method or not, as that seems to be the issue.
There'll be another Witcher game (perhaps without Geralt), I think. It's got rave reviews and sold, I think, very well indeed. And rightly so, it's a staggeringly good game.

I can't imagine why a non white Leavers have been put off by Leave's tone
George Osborne has attacked Nigel Farage for using “pretty disgusting” rhetoric about the threat of migrants sexually attacking women and refugee bodies washing up on British beaches.
In a marked escalation of attacks on the Ukip leader and by extension the entire leave campaign, the chancellor singled out Farage for representing a “mean-spirited, narrow and divisive” vision of Britain. He said that “tendency” was now coming to dominate the anti-EU campaign.
Speaking to reporters on a campaign visit to a Scottish sheep and beef farm with Scottish Tory leader Ruth Davidson, Osborne said:
The Nigel Farage tendency is taking over their argument and you’re increasingly getting this Farage vision of Britain, with all this talk of bodies washing up the sea shores and women being at risk of sexual assault from migrants.
It is pretty disgusting. And we want to say no to it. We want to say that is not the country we are. We’re a country that is big and bold and strong, and united, and we want to say no to this mean-spirited, divisive, negative view of Britain that you get from Nigel Farage and company.
@sarahwollaston: To be clear, 1.I have not asked for or been offered any Govt post 2.I have not deleted any of my EU tweets 3. I am not auditioning for 007
Except we can no longer trust a word she says.
I am sure Dr Wollaston has been acting from the highest principles throughout, but it does seem to follow that she's been remarkably blinkered to the scope of the issue we're about to vote on. Still is, in fact. Her judgment up to yesterday was that it would be in the best interests of the UK to leave the EU; and now it's all about the NHS alone.
I find it very puzzling.
(edited to add: good afternoon, everyone)
It is not just the NHS alone, she is expressing concern on the economic impact and is also unhappy at the way leave are dealing with the immigration issue.
I can understand anyone (even an MP!) changing her mind, being swayed by arguments, etc. What I find hard to understand is anyone at all joining a campaign on either side without having listened to the arguments, thought through the issues and arriving at a settled view.
Perhaps Dr Wollaston has been too focussed on the NHS to give thought to the wider issues until this week.
Later on, she may find herself unhappy at the way Remain are dealing one or more of their primary issues.

“Surely this is the most irresponsible talk that can be perpetuated in terms of Northern Ireland – very dangerous, destabilising and it should not be happening,”
Nigel is a Brexiteer. He and the DUP will not like it as it will strengthen the remain vote in the audience they were speaking to.
It does look as if there is now a full frontal co-ordinated attack on leave, which is going to be coming from many directions, not just blue on blue. Nicola Sturgeon and Angela Eagle v Boris tonight, Corbyn' TV debate to young people on the 20th, and Khan v Boris towards the end of the campaign. Many on here last night dismissed Sarah Wollaston as a non story and I did warn that it would be huge today on the broadcast media. It has and in spades but what on earth has possessed leave to accuse her of not wanting to put more money in the NHS. She is chair of the Health Select Committee and that comment is an avoidable own goal and has been called out by the Sky reporter
??????????
That's plain nuts.
The DUP are the largest party and their people turn out to vote. The nationalists don't like british PMs telling them what to do. can't see that helping Remain
The analysis in Ulster was they came over to NI because they couldn't go to Scotland or fear of upsetting the locals. I suspect they'll piss a lot of the NI locals off.
The reports are that they were speaking to the substantial remain vote and the obvious fears over the shared border
Im sure they were, but that they felt they needed to go there and say things the unionists would find imflammatory and the nationalists patronising shows how worried Remain are.
I reckon their private polling and canvas returns must be dire.
I think the last 48 hours will have seen a change and the Wollaston story together with a labour Brexiteer defecting to remain over the immigration issues with leave, will change the narrative. It may take a while to show in the polls but the momentum may be shifting
VoteLeave must be absolutely incandescent with rage at Nigel Farage. They had a good week last week, with immigration and a "points based" system and one inappropriate comment from Farage has completely changed the debate.

As a fellow PB Tory, I take it you've seen the arranged vote tallies? Bet accordingly

Listening to her quiet and reasoned arguments today she is firmly a remainer and carries creditability not only as chair of Health Select Committee but as a GP. Also the newly announced defection of a labour Brexiteer to remain over race concerns with leave is not a good picture for their campaign

Scott_P - but you are counting the money coming from the EU as actually useful - why would you want money spent on set aside for example? Or building a 2nd Forth road bridge?

I thought we were xenophobes, not racists. Is it one of those or both? I suppose xenophobic racists has a certain cachet, though I'm sure racist xenophobes will have its adherents.
Remain. So ugly. One day they might start selling the EU to us, though I shan't hold my breath.
Edit: Oops, I forgot, 'parochial racist xenophobes'. How silly of me.
Mr. Urquhart, depends if they attribute low sales to the weird distribution method or not, as that seems to be the issue.
There'll be another Witcher game (perhaps without Geralt), I think. It's got rave reviews and sold, I think, very well indeed. And rightly so, it's a staggeringly good game.
I quite like the episodic idea & the fact they produce new missions for existing maps. It is like an interactive TV show. It seems like a really interesting model of game where you have constantly evolving tasks within the computer generated world.

Utter rubbish. Vote Leave and their utterly sh*t campaign (sorry Plato, but it is) have only themselves to blame. It was utterly stupid to imagine that they could sweep Nigel under the carpet, and that the other kids would play nice with them if they did. Instead, they should have done everything in their power to integrate him into their campaign, so everyone could at least have attempted to sing from the same hymn sheet. They were always going to lump him in with the Leave campaign regardless of official status.
Don't forget that if you vote to "remain" then you'll be responsible for the complete and total destruction of the green belt as a hundred million immigrants flock here within the next 20 years - whereas if you "leave" then the total and complete collapse of the economy is coming which will make Mugabe's Zimbabwe look like a model state.
I really wish those fucking idiots at Vote Leave adopted the Norway Model instead of this current shambles where their British Model or whatever it is can be constantly attacked. O well, I'll be up about 5k should Remain win so not the end of the world.

Osborne is in Scotland today, so I don't think there is any fear of upsetting the Scots.
Only Boris is upset apparently. Osborne and Davidson turned up at the farm to find he had withdrawn, because of a broken penis.
Comments
Ho hum.
Could backfire. Hopefully will. It's not a legitimate argument. [I do think there are some legitimate arguments for staying, though these are outweighed by those for leaving. Shouting 'Nigel Farage' is as reasonable as shouting 'Tony Blair'].
It's the first time Ive come across a property developer who's all for smash the state.
Or if Remain win, this could be the next leader contest
@BBCPhilipSim: "An' siccan a sotter wiz nivver seen, as the muckin' o' Geordie's byre" https://t.co/Z4u7LRYyZH
Osborne is an odious toad. No political grave can be dug that will be too deep for him.
But we're voting on staying with or leaving the EU, not staying with or leaving Nigel Farage. It's a grubby approach, although they do seem to have dropped the 'Little England' line.
Edited extra bit: also, Lake Manor is (or has been recently) a #1 in the US, Canada and Australia, and even hit #27 in the overall paid list in Canada. Damned impressive given it's the publisher's first book.
Lucky escape for bairstow there.
I find it very puzzling.

Also sad to hear that the hitman game has tanked. IMO up there for best game so far this year, but then it requires a lot of work.
You sound like a real laugh.
It's like being on the receiving end of criticism from Peter Sutcliffe.
That's plain nuts.

Nothing to hide, nothing to fear.
I prefer single player, to be honest.
On Hitman: from what I've seen/heard the game is great. But the distribution method is... unorthodox. Releasing it in chunks with lengthy gaps between each episode and the hard copy only coming out when it's all done is a weird way to do it.

Britain is the world’s most vulnerable state on a key measure of short-term debt and credit markets might suddenly seize up if voters opt for Brexit, Standard & Poor’s has warned.
Well, it's a view.
The levels released so far as fantastic. The Ai is slightly lacking in places, but I think the general concept is great. My fear is because it is tanking we won't see this kind of really open ended slow moving game attempted again for the foreseeable...instead just more fifa this, tomb raider that...where as witcher & hitman are superb & different.
....but I can't guarantee that you will have heard of this person....
Or maybe the Labour MP defector is going from In to Out tomorrow. This can be so very confusing...
