Anyone who ostentatious smokes fat cigars is an unredeemable narcissist.

I've visited USA 7 times, 37 out of 50 states, enjoyed every minute.

It can now seriously fuck off.

If she wasn't she would do something about it.

Indeed. I still believe the majority of people want a fair & just society. The only thing that is missing is a government that will deliver such a deal. People should reflect on that every time there’s an opportunity to cast a ballot.

Given a) Farage's past; b) the expanding story about Russia and former MEPs; and c) media enthusiasm for "what influence is being bought?" questions, if anyone to left of Mussolini is gifted so much as a cup of sugar, why is Reform facing no such questions about Friday's £9m crypto-bro donation?~AA

What bollocks. Job numbers totally exaggerated. Think maybe 40.
Where will the electricity and water come from? How much will the massive increase in demand put prices up for everyone.

Anyone interviewed Laure Ferrari’s conveyancing solicitors (like they did with Rayner’s) to find out how she passed the Anti Money Laundering checks and proved the source of funds were hers? If Farage paid for it, he’d already declared himself the beneficial owner in the press - so an implied trust!

Nothing is more symbolic of Europe's inherent weakness of resolve - EU and UK - than the failure of governments and institutions to leave X/Twitter en masse. It's easier to stay, so stay they do. Pathetic.

Unfortunately their electorate is even more stupid.

What people are not talking about: Russian drones were circling a French nuclear submarine yesterday. France shot them down.

My suggestion would be to limit political donations to the level of UK tax paid by individuals or companies. To twist a well known phrase or saying: No representation without taxation.

Deluded Whateley, fantasist Sultana and thick Gardiner are guarantees i won't be switching on.
Good grief!

It never gets played. God knows why.

Wasn't Goat Bells a pal of Hitler?

I love soccer and I remember each World Cup with great intensity and always so much look forward to the next. But FIFA that was disgusting, even more disgusting than usual, and now I just can’t. And won’t.

Are you having to sit through this bollocks? I hope you're getting well paid.
Pass the sick bucket!

It’s weird that news organizations like the BBC are covering this as if it’s a real thing with a real process behind it—and not clearly some nakedly invented “participation trophy” by a corrupt organization to curry favor with a corrupt and easily manipulated man-child. www.bbc.com/sport/footba...

Starmer accuses the Brexiters of selling Brexit on lies and false promises. He’s guilty of pretence and obfuscation now. The EU won’t trust us or even consider major changes to the current deal if British politicians continue to lie, hedge and mislead. Act like a leader, Starmer. Damnit, man. LEAD.
