Ordinarily donβt do any kind of reality TV but love normal Traitors and think the celebrity version is even better.
Iβm hooked.
ALL clubs have idiots. Southend is firmly in flag shagging, Brexit voting country and a chunk of our support represents that sadly. But doesnβt change my love for the club.

Nigel Farage has criticised Gary Neville for his comments about 'angry white men' dividing the UK. Has his "shallow patriotism" been exposed?

Itβs dangerous because it lets in the worst people to fill a void.

Not that Iβm bitter of course π
But there are plenty of families not in that position. Reading and owning books (let alone have a bookcase full of them) has become something thatβs a privilege which many canβt afford after they put a roof over their head and food on the table

But I was lucky as a working class kid in a time when there was still a functioning school library and local public libraries to give me a love of books that I could pass on. And fortunate enough that we can afford books now.
