I  reckon Izzard is working for  the global elite, helping them spreading the lies and in return they make out that he's some kind of marathon running charity athlete. Fat ****'s never run a marathon in his life let alone 27.

UK Independence Party (UKIP) leader Nigel Farage is the most popular party leader in Britain, polling the highest out of the four largest parties for leader satisfaction in a final poll before the referendum.
UKIP leader Nigel Farage, who has has been arguing for the UK to leave the EU for more than 20 years and campaigning throughout the lead up to the referendum, has topped the poll in approval ratings.  Mr. Farage’s figures are double his closest rival, Liberal Democrat leader Tim Farron.

The poll, conducted by IPSOS MORI, asked 1,257 Britons whether they were satisfied or dissatisfied with party leaders’ performances across the four largest political parties, as well as whether they were satisfied or dissatisfied with the goverment.

With a satisfaction rate of 38 per cent, Mr. Farage topped the table followed by Prime Minister David Cameron for the Conservatives at 35 per cent, Labour’s Jeremy Corbyn at 27 per cent, and the Liberal Democrat leader Tim Farron at 19 per cent.

Those polled are also more satisfied with Mr. Farage as leader of UKIP (38 per cent) than those are satisfied with the government (32 per cent), with the government disapproval rating at a massive 59 per cent.

Mr. Cameron has the highest dissatisfaction rating out of all four party leaders at 58 per cent.

Geldof says no to euro

Bob Geldof is a trusted and respected figure
Former pop star Bob Geldof has joined the campaign to keep the pound.
He features in an advert being launched by the No campaign on Tuesday to highlight what they say are the dangers of joining the single currency.


You know it's not anti-European to be against the euro

Bob Geldof
The advert, to be screened in cinemas nationwide later this month, is designed to appeal to those who are switched off by traditional politics

But the Britain in Europe campaign has dubbed the adverts a gimmick.

The pro-euro group claims those opposed to joining the single currency are running away from the real arguments about jobs and the economy.

Comic touch

The advertising campaign includes jokes and comments from comedians Harry Enfield and Rik Mayall, the musician Jools Holland, as well as Geldof.

In the advert, the former Boomtown Rats singer condemns the euro as "hugely undemocratic".

"You know, it's not anti-European to be against the euro," he adds.

Geldof's charity work since Live Aid in the 1980s has won him much public admiration as a non-politician engaged in political issues.

No Campaign director George Eustice said: "It is certainly the case that politicians are not very popular these days and this is an issue where we need to connect with the whole of the electorate."

That argument was dismissed, however, by Britain in Europe director Simon Buckby, who said the euro debate was about the UK's long-term prosperity and future.


Once again we get gimmicks instead of a well informed debate

"The campaign about the euro is not started yet and I think just turning to a bunch of comedians isn't going to help explain to people what the serious issues are about," said Mr Buckby.

The Conservatives' director of strategy Dominic Cummings has warned that if the Tories were to define the anti-euro campaign they would threaten the pound's survival.

But Tory leader Iain Duncan Smith has insisted he will be at the forefront of the campaign to keep the pound.

Tests met?

Mr Duncan Smith said last week that if it was up to him there would be no referendum on the issue.

But should one be called, he would fight scrapping the pound, he told BBC One's Question Time.

The pro-euro Britain in Europe group says the real campaign will not start unless or until Chancellor Gordon Brown declares the five economic tests have been met.

A new study from academics on Monday suggested the government's those five tests had now been met.

With the euro tipped to regain parity with the dollar soon, pro-euro campaigners say such moves would produce the kind of sustainable exchange rates needed for British entry.

But anti-euro Labour MP Frank Field told BBC Radio 4's Today programme: "The hard truth is that until you have actually gone in you cannot know whether it is the right rate or not
