Are you a fan of fantasy? You’ll love "Reform UK Conference," a stunning work of imagination set in a world where Brexit is a success, Nigel Farage is honest, Lee Anderson is a respected statesman, Nadine Dorries is sane, and they're all highly principled victims of a wicked establishment plot.

In the meantime, take your kids here. They have a FANTASTIC tour, absolutely stunning. It's worth every penny. Exiting live "lectures" for kids, play with space toys, look at astronaut stuff. Bliss. And it's a lovely area too - go to Old Hall in Sandbach for dinner afterwards. You'll thank me.
