Zack Polanski said the Green Party would be open to a Referendum on the Royal Family.

Do you want a Referendum so we can vote to get rid of this monstrosity?

I’d love one but it wouldn’t pass. And even if there were one it should have a two thirds majority like ALL constitutional referendums should (looking at you Brexshit).
I like the idea of winding it down to 2066 and then ending it. A planned closure. They’ve had 1,000 years now they can EFF off.

Fawlty Towers star Prunella Scales dies aged 93.

😒 She was class in Fawlty Towers. Absolutely perfect in the role of Sybil.

Nigel Farage went to Dulwich College which when he attended was more expensive than Eton

He earns Β£1.5m a year, 92% of which comes from dodgy donations

His girlfriend pays Β£885,000 in cash to buy houses but she's a waitress.

He's not a 'working man' he's very rich and corrupt

Jeff Bezos might have built a spaceship, but indie bookstores build and nurture whole communities and that is *way* more impressive and valuable.

Trickle-down economics was always a sham.

I haven't had time to read up on the latest shooting, but I'm going to post my incredibly radical position that a shooting is bad no matter who did it and no matter who was shot.

Stop trying to crack the code of a shooter's motives and focus on the one thing they all have in common -- the guns.

I’m disgusted at the rampant toadying that’s being lavished on the tangerine tyrant.

I know, economically, we need the USA but surely this amount of kissing ass to the felon-in-chief is not required?

Have some morals and some dignity, oh hang on it’s MPs. They hand those in on day one don’t they?

Actor, director, environmentalist Robert Redford dies at 89 | CNN Robert Redford, the dashing actor and Oscar-winning director who eschewed his status as a Hollywood leading man to champion causes close to his heart, died Tuesday, CNN has learned. He was 89.

Well, shit. He was well worthy of the title β€˜legend’.

The Natural is one of my all-time favourite movies.

RIP.

He was killed on camera. No one's family deserves to have to witness that. It's unthinkably cruel that people would then go on the internet and use their platform to say about an innocent man that "I don't care that he's dead." "He's not a hero." "He's a scumbag." "He shouldn't be celebrated."

I'm talking about George Floyd. You thought I was talking about Charlie Kirk? No, those are actual quotes BY Charlie Kirk about George Floyd.

Outrageous that anyone would say that of the dead, right?"

That Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, cosplaying as far-right working class martyr Tommy Robinson, manages to lure 100,000 people to London to loudly proclaim that they’re stupid racists with a smattering of violent thugs is depressing; but thanks to CCTV we should now know who they all are. #ResistTheRight
