Anyway listening to a Simon and Garfunkel song today and here is a wee verse from the boxer to cheer you all up
In the clearing stands a boxer And a fighter by his trade And he carries the remainders Of every glove that laid him down And cut him till he cried out In his anger and his shame “I am leaving, I am leaving” But the fighter still remains Lie-la-lie...
Nigels just a poor boy Though his story's seldom told He has squandered his resistance For a pocketful of mumbles Such are promises All lies and jest Still, a man hears what he wants to hear And disregards the rest
lie-la-lie

The extra verses of my song about Nigel is on politics forum and if anyone reads I would like to say I am not making light of a serious matter. But this particular subject gets brought up often on that forum by some ukippers. A small minority of them - as I believe many people vote ukip do on principle and for the right reasons.

It is lifes blows that have brought the boxer down not the punches in the ring.
