Summary
Jon was really moved by the D Day commemoration on the BBC. However he was outraged by the French demanding to see our paratrooper's papers when they landed in France. "They didn't demand papers in 1944 when we liberated them did they!"
Was the sacrifice worth it back in 1944? Europe is divided again and we now have a PM in Rishi who thinks he can lie in a TV debate and con the British people over taxation.
Will F Day save the day asks Jon who is delighted that Nigel Farage has been listening to his podcasts and decided now to stand in the election rather than work for the Yankee Dollar. But will Farage really be able to change or reform anything?
