Fun fact 👉🏼 Jan 2024 ex PM Truss secretly lobbied Govt to “expedite” sale of defense equipment to China, documents released to POLITICO show❗️🤔

"According to a US Official" is as good a source as "I read it on Twitter."

We really don't need to expose the Racist Flag Shaggers as being mouth-breathing imbeciles when they do so themselves, on such a regular basis ...

Sam Cooke - A Change Is Gonna Come (Official Lyric Video) "A Change Is Gonna Come” by Sam Cooke Lyrics: I was born by the river in a little tent Oh, and just like the river I’ve been a-runnin’ ever since. It’s been a long, a long time comin’, but I know,…

THIS DAY in 1964, Sam Cooke was murdered. They called it 'Self Defense'.

"Welcome to Britain, a country so short of dentists that an MP's 87-year-old mum pulled her teeth out with pliers"
