Old Fartface's comments have come up in a number of conversations with different people. Even those who are sympathetic consider his proposal for banning all Muslim immigrants to be too extreme and completely unworkable.

Also, when the leader of the far right UK Independence Party think's you've gone too far then that's a clear sign that you've gone too far. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/nigel-farage-says-donald-trumps-policy-of-banning-muslim-immigration-to-the-us-is-a-political-a6765431.html

Maybe if I still lived down in Essex I'd find a few Alf Garnett wannabe's who'd agree with old fartface?

Right about now, most people I talk to just want Hilary Clinton as the next US President. Very few people over here have any idea who Bernie Sanders is.
