Love Peter Brook paintings - got a couple of prints adorning our living room wall

NHS to pay 25% more for US drugs

That's an extra £3 billion a year

Just not going to find a cuter bird

He can now even quote the Telegraph which has declared Brexit to be an economic failure

Have stopped listening to her - apart from on a few pet issues, she never pushes back on the drivel spouted on her show

Going by recent polls its even less than that, surely it's time for the government to take a more robust approach to this creeping fascism

Far from being an expert but did the Diplock courts result in significant miscarriages of justice akin to those that have happened in England with jury trials?

Nothing says I hate drug traffickers more than releasing a convicted major drug trafficker

Damn those rapist hating Liberals upsetting their poor convicted felon supporting dad. What's the world coming to!

Never believe the Tories and their media.

Bottle of beer

Mine opened a short while ago

I know - Europe really needs to up its game to make the USA less crucial

This really isn't rocket science - completely unprovoked country A invades country B who's to blame? Unless you're Trump or Farage the answer is pretty simple

😂

Farage and Gill

Absolutely and this is not a photo of Farage and Gill together

What policies exactly are people supposed to be fleeing? Improved workers rights? Extension of breakfast clubs for primary school kids? Increased funding for the arts? End of no fault evictions?

People are going by what they see actually see happening to prices in the shops rather than his nonsensical lies.

"Quiet, piggy!"
