Description
White cotton tea towel, produced by the UK Independence Party. The towel has a large portrait of Herman Van Rompuy and above this reads "Genuine Belgian Damp Rag, Herman Van Rompuy". Below the portrait is a quote from Nigel Farage, reading "I don't want to be rude but, really, you have the charisma of a damp rag and the appearance of a low-grade bank clerk and the question I want to ask is: Who are you?", alongside a smaller portrait of Farage.
