If you are going to claim you didnโ€™t incite an insurrection then perhaps best not to incite an insurrection in front of tv cameras and especially if you donโ€™t have a current tv licence!

Is it possible for anyone with a reputation already in the toilet to claim your reputation has suffered anyway?

Heโ€™s a knobhead whose very actions have caused a global drop in sales for Tesla yet still being rewarded for being the โ€œface of Teslaโ€ if Hitlerโ€™s face sold Coca Cola eh!

Are all the people who complained about Tim Davieโ€™s leadership of the BBC resulted in a right wing bias and push on Reform now demanding he doesnโ€™t resign because Trump supports this move and heโ€™s not been right wing enough? Iโ€™m confused!

The BBC is dead duck irrelevance in waiting, just us oldies watching it really, itโ€™s just become a self promoting entity for its own shows and then reporting on it and dressing it up as news e.g. Strictly, Traitors and, and, erm.. thatโ€™s about it - cue Eastenders drum roll!

What a load of bollocks, as much as Reform being top of the pile, Greens overtaking Libs and now the Tories beating Labour, itโ€™s a bullshit being jumped on by people willing Labour to fail, well, you have another 3 and a bit years to make your dreams come true, happy then?

Cue a series of Robert F. Kennedy style health announcements as Reform continue to parrot whatever comes out of the Trump regime as itโ€™s โ€œModel for a Greater UKโ€, the idea of which is as sickening as their health policies will make us!

As a Hobbit living in The Shire I can tell Mr Musk that busses donโ€™t run on most rural routes after 6pm, not at all on Sundayโ€™s and you canโ€™t use your Bus Pass till after 09:30 when they do. As for kids, apparently there arenโ€™t any being born outside of the big cities and the Orc spawning grounds!

Aye but hereโ€™s another one who believes that there is a circus or a ballroom (non Trumpian) at the top of the Tower, I had arguments with visitors when I worked there years back who insisted โ€œwell, there used to be!โ€ Itโ€™s about 10m2 at the top of the Tower, Iโ€™ve seen bigger pub dance floors ๐Ÿ˜‚

Bought my poppy, oh hang on, bought one of my many poppies, just so people know how generous I am whilst at the same time calling for someone to lose their job! Probably claiming the cost of the poppies back on expenses of course under โ€œSundriesโ€. Sheโ€™s getting ยฃ93,904 a year to post this shite btw.

Being saying it for a while, Reform are just a rebrand of the Conservative Party so they can write off Austerity, Brexit, Covid and Johnson and the whole Truss disaster and pretend that they had nothing to do with all the corruption, but still the same people!
Reform = โ€œNowโ€™t to do with us Partyโ€

Trying to counter the Labour stance that Brexit is contributing toward the need for tax raises and the finger pointing at Farage as the architect of that particular disasterous decision! All part of the Tory Partyโ€™s โ€œfaceliftโ€ as they turn into the โ€œNothing to do with us Partyโ€ aka Reform.

Yes, but itโ€™s exactly the reason he has appealed to the neglected of Clacton who must feel like they have been left to rot by successive governments. Farage just knows how to tap into that disgruntlement. I can see the same thing happening here in equally deprived Blackpool and Lancashire!

I donโ€™t know if Iโ€™ll be playing the new release of the โ€œPrince of Persiaโ€ game โ€œMountbatten Windsor of Persiaโ€ just doesnโ€™t have the same ring to it!

What, whatโ€™s this about Farageโ€™s house? I donโ€™t recall seeing anything on the news or in the โ€œproperโ€ papers about this ๐Ÿง

So the average hooligan Reform supporter with the Football banning order from their favourite club are going to replace that Saturday Fix with a Sunday Fix instead, watch their eyes light up when the collection plate goes past โ€œOhh, free money, Amen to that yaโ€™allโ€.

This may well be the last chance for a party with a large parliamentary majority to change the system so that no party gains a large parliamentary majority again but ensures that a fairer representation of public opinion is reflected in the parties MP makeup. For goodness sake Labour, make it so!

I guess us oldies have more time on our hands to soak up the bigoted newspaper coverage and constant bleating by the BBC that immigration is the number one โ€œlegitimate concernโ€ permeating the whole country at the moment. Itโ€™s criminal brainwashing behaviour by the press and media!

If they can afford to just up sticks and relocate themselves, their jobs, their homes and their childrenโ€™s schools etc. at the drop of the hat, surely itโ€™s a bit cheaper just to stay where they are and pay a bit more tax that they probably wonโ€™t notice leaving their bulging bank accounts!

All the flavours in the world to enjoy, yet somebody brings a multipack of plain Walkers crisps (22ge) and to rub a lack of salt into the wounds they are 50% less fat, might as well just throw a raw spud on the table!
