The local football clubs need coaches and lines-folk and referees, The allotments need looked after, the local parks need planted, And if you don't want to help with anything above, Just admit you do not give a sh*t, and shut the f*ck up.
I like this. I really like this.
It exposes the rank hypocrisy of these βpatriotsβ.
Kudos to whoever wrote it via @thelondoneconomic.bsky.social
I don't get what he hopes to achieve - more baseless accusations which will be thrown out anyway.
