Boris Johnson without his security details returning from a 'party'

Boris Johnson without his security details returning from a 'party'

First Andy now Mandy, I'mm not sure about this, I think it sets a dangerous presedence investigating what secret activities people in power get up to that they shouldn't, I mean where will it end?

The privatisation of local dialect so it can be sold to a global market.

Will be cheered on by many ("help us with PSR"), without any understanding of how dangerous this is.

It's cultural appropriation. You don't own your own language anymore, we're selling it in USA and Japan for profit

MINORITY REPORT - Part 2 Newcastle United supporters come in all shapes and sizes ... and colours and religions - United by Newcastle.

While Man U’s billionaire Jim Ratcliffe hides his money in Monaco to avoid putting his bit in the national pot and talks shite about the country being colonised by immigrants, a Geordie of Pakistani heritage writes about his life and #NUFC -

I call on my party and my government to remove themselves entirely from X and communicate with the public where they actually participate online and can be protected from such illegality.

The murder of Charlie Kirk is a tragedy,
and a sign of the utter desperation
and cowardice of those who could
not defeat him in argument. Charlie
Kirk has been killed not for espousing
extremist views - because he didn't.
He has been killed for saying things
that used to be simple common sense
He has been killed because he had
the courage to stand up publicly for
reasonable opinions held by millions
and millions of ordinary people both
in the US and Britain. The world has a
shining new martyr to free speech


Our thoughts and prayers are with his
family and loved ones.

If Mr. Johnson knows the assassin's identity and what their motivation was, then maybe he should contact the FBI.

If he doesn't, then perhaps he should shut up rather than stirring up fear and loathing.

Grossly irresponsible

Natives = match going fans? Good words from Eddie. USA sports are shite and the PL is being turned into a closed NFL/NBA show by FSG and the rest of ths Super League six. Eddie represents the club and English game well. Thanks for your thoughts.

These are the top replies, being financially rewarded for posting this stuff, and the explanation offered by the site’s own AI for why it’s like that.

Anyway just flicking through the Sunday newspapers reading about some minor content infractions that Ofcom might look into at the BBC/Channel 4.

If there's an opportunity to score that banger in front of your own fans, take it.

Hope the Trump era makes more people realise that whether people respect institutions and the rule of law is so much more important than standard ideological differences between left and right.

Being a historian, people ask me if I think the US is living through Germany 1933.

I answer no, analogies are always imperfect but to me it feels more like Russia 1999: a blatant theft of state assets and liberals in a fugue state, refusing to believe the arc of progress is bending against them.

Yet again. Nail. Head. By a country mile the best columnist writing today.

If democracy, liberalism and capitalism don’t seem to materially benefit people, nobody should be surprised if people turn their backs on those things.

They’re only abstract nouns, after all.

#NUFC fans - working on a piece on the stadium for BBC Sport. In need of someone willing to speak on the record about NOT wanting to leave SJP, to balance against wanting to move. Reply or DM if you are keen to speak up.

Re-skies (?) appreciated.
