Why does he always have his mouth fully open in every picture?

[Richard Hakluyt]

He has a braying laugh which he deploys frequently, the pictures have all been taken mid-laugh.

Ok, I thought he just strived to look like a mug, all the time.

If you've got a picture of Farage with his mouth closed and one with him of him braying like a donkey, which would you choose to publish?

The one with his mouth closed. Having a one-of-a-kind picture would generate clicks.

Welsh UKIP politician wants Ireland to pay for road

A UKIP politician has asked if Ireland could help pay for a motorway in Wales using EU funds.

David Rowlands asked the Welsh first minister to "explore the possibility" of the M4 improvement scheme being part-funded by the Irish government.

The assembly member for South Wales East said it was a serious request as "three quarters of all Irish exports to the EU and UK pass along that road".

His request was met with heckles and hilarity in the assembly.

First Minister Carwyn Jones said it was for the Welsh government to maintain the major roads and motorways of Wales.

He also said Mr Rowlands could not expect another EU member state "to make up the shortfall that he himself campaigned to engineer in the first place".

Undeterred, the UKIP assembly member said Ireland would be able to access cash from the Trans-European highways fund for the M4 relief road - a £1.1bn six-lane motorway, south of Newport, to relieve congestion.

The UK Independence Party fought for the UK to leave the EU during June's referendum. Leave won by 52% to 48%.

Fuck off.

Typical ukip. Totally willing to take the EU's money...

It's not completely unheard of - the US government paid for the construction of the Alaska Highway in Yukon since it's Alaskas only land connection to the continental US.

And all the Irish going through Wales on their way to England for abortions.

Did Ferrero Rocher pay for a product placement?

Is Ferrero Rocher something special in America or Britain? It's just another not particularly fancy type of chocolate here.

The ads really try and sell it as being upscale and fancy, but really you can buy it at any old drugstore or the like.

I think it is a little more costly, at least than typical chocolates. I'd think on part with Lindt though. So nicer but nothing amazing.
