Andrew Neil just owned Tim Farron and it’s better than last night’s match
Here’s former Lib Den leader Tim Farron sharing the opinion that absolutely no-one asked for, his take on England’s 1-0 defeat by Belgium in the World Cup last night.
Well…Not a heartbreaking moment for England, but extremely disappointing. We were wooden and unimaginative. Momentum lost, mojo lost, opportunity to grow as a team lost. Prove me wrong lads…please?

And as takedowns go they don’t get a lot better than this.
Are you talking about the England football team or the Lib Dems when you were leader? https://t.co/yVeSNohXYL

Do you know anything about football at all?

Yes I do. I can name all the World Cup final runners up in chronological order…

Makes absolute sense that his specialist subject should be losers (although perhaps that’s his point).
Andrew Neil enjoyed it so much he did it all again on his TV show last night.
