The #FarageCable Debate has started

@vincecable is immediately making ridiculous arguments like there will be civil war in Northern Ireland on a WTO Brexit

Total nonsense

@vincecable Is it just me or does @vincecable look and sound like Sir Humphrey Appleby right now

"I believe in democracy, I believe in parliamentary democracy...but many things have happened."

#FarageCable

@vincecable Is this really the best the remainers have to offer?

@vincecable: "We have a free trade deal now with the single market and the customs union."

@NigelFarage is destroying this point

#FarageCable

@vincecable @nigelfarage Both Cable and Farage's "most eye-catching" policy is Brexit-related

People who think that the Brexit Party's lack of a manifesto will be a problem are deluding themselves

#FarageCable

@vincecable @nigelfarage Now @vincecable is talking up the virtues of the EU

Wasn't this debate resolved in 2016?

And isn't that the whole point?

@vincecable @nigelfarage On British Steel - @nigelfarage points out that the British government is impotent.

@vincecable completely concedes the point. Demonstrates that he wants the UK to remain a vassal state, having to ask the EU's permission to change policy.

#FarageCable

@vincecable @nigelfarage It actually blows my mind that a sovereign country could want to be in the EU

The UK parliament cannot spend UK tax dollars to benefit the interests of UK companies and preserve UK jobs

Because...why?

#FarageCable

@vincecable @nigelfarage Now @vincecable calls @nigelfarage "precious" for pressing charges against his attacker

One second after "unreservedly condemning" the attack

Cable talking out of both sides of his mouth

And minimizing political violence

@vincecable @nigelfarage Moderator: "@vincecable is an MP, he can influence policy, you can't."

@Nigel_Farage: "Oh, I don't know about that."

Farage has had more influence on policy in the last five years than any other British politician
