The leader of UKIP just said ‘war has now been declared’ but it didn’t have quite the gravitas he was presumably aiming for – 13 A++ comebacks worth fighting for
The hunt goes on for the suspect in the shocking killing of Charlie Kirk (at the time of going to press) but that hasn’t stopped Donald Trump and his followers immediately blaming the ‘radical left’.
The blame game, such as it is, has also extended over this side of the Atlantic, where UKIP leader Nick Tenconi – no, us neither – got his mobile out to announce that ‘war has now been declared’.
Except whatever level of seriousness he was intending to aim for – presumably quite high – it fell short. Far short.
UKIP leader Nick Tenconi has declared war.
This clip is actually funny, though. He tries to fake cry. pic.twitter.com/ra2EAxEoBH

War on who? War on what? Perhaps he could be specific.
