Your piece would make an excellent comedy sketch. Or is that not necessary as we already have it on the daily News.

People who have come to the United Kingdom legally, played by the rules and made it their home do not need to β€œgo home”. This is their home.

I've written to Kemi Badenoch to give her the chance to reject these divisive calls from her frontbencher Katie Lam.

BBC news dominated by Andrew having to give up use of some of his royal titles. A more serious discussion is: How do we abolish the Monarchy and be a mature Republic.

This inappropriate, unauthorised flag waving has now been removed from the shop after various complaints. Do not tolerate racist Nationalism while shopping or anywhere else.

Why is this Co-op supermarket suddenly hanging up the St George's Cross flag when it is clearly being exploited by the Far Right racists and some fascists?

"The first genocide in history where its victims are broadcasting their own destruction in real time in the desperate, so far vain hope that the world might do something."

Israeli plan for forced transfer of Gaza’s population β€˜a blueprint for crimes against humanity’ Military ordered to turn ruins of Rafah into β€˜humanitarian city’ but experts call the plan an internment camp for all Palestinians in Gaza

It seems almost unbelievable to say it but the Nazification of Israel deepens with each new episode. Concentration camps plus forced expulsion of Palestinians in Gaza = crimes against humanity.

And still, the European Union does nothing.

Stephen Nolan "You sound angry"

Victoria Rose "I am.. the footage is everywhere. I don't understand why we are still actively supporting it. This is the needless killing of thousands of children"
