Top Six - July 16

So what’s hot, and what’s not, in the past week’s blogging? Here are the six most popular posts on Zelo Street for the past seven days, counting down in reverse order, because, well, I have shopping stuff to do later. So there.

6 Farage - One Step Nearer The Slammer Nigel “Thirsty” Farage might not be so keen on a move to the USA after all, following revelations that place him uncomfortably close to the latest events to undermine the Trump Gang.

4 Arron Banks - What Wealth? Was the UKIP and Brexit backer really worth £250m? Was it perhaps only around £100m? Or was it rather less than that?

And that’s the end of another blogtastic week, blog pickers. Not ‘arf!
