So easy for fleeing immigrants to be a critic of their host nationโ€™s culture knowing that safeguards for their newly acquired freedom of speech are in place unlike the regime that they have fled from.

Starmer to Farage- โ€œwill you sack your erant councillorโ€
Tory MP to Starmer- โ€œwill you sack your erant councillorโ€
A score draw perhaps?

The sight of outraged politicians in the #HouseOfCommons accusing others of being frivolous with the public purse is beyond a joke. It is as if they have conveniently forgotten their expenses claim frauds. Andrew is an unsavoury character but the pot calling the kettle black is beyond parody

For some time professional football has employed rugby body holding tactics to replace the traditional footed tackle. This was obvious watching the #Everton v #ManUtd game as the Arteta style penalty area scuffles threatened the beautiful game Maybe a 15 min sin bin (rugby) would solve the problem.

The parental challenges of dealing with their offspringโ€™s mental health problems should never be underestimated. Parenting in normal circumstances is challenging, combine that responsibility with that of a mental health councillor and the task is enormous.

Giorgia Meloni the ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡น Italian prime minister has managed to combine a protection of Italian culture with a pragmatic command of her nationโ€™s economy and she is proving more successful than many imagined.

Whenever political disagreements are decided by force the democratic process suffers immeasurably.
Macron is right to call for calm as the left & right in French politics seek to justify the murder of Quentin Deranque.

Why are the media and the public surprised whenever rich and entitled people act like rich and entitled people.
Andrew is the fall guy currently, but eventually the net will catch some very rich and influential people.

When we start judging citizens by their conduct and not by their race, creed or colour we will start to make some social progress. Making excuses for illegal and antisocial behaviour will only ever encourage the disrupters and undermine progressive thinking.

Christian culture should not only be the language of the right in politics. Anyone who cares about the civilisation of the west should also encourage the left to protect their hard fought heritage.

Many reasons exist to criticise the Trump administration but the speech in Munich yesterday by Marco Rubio suggests that the Republican Party has a visionary leader waiting in the wings.
An uplifting speech for anyone who values the best of European Culture.

Group think extends way beyond the Starmer inner circle. The cabinet and the PLP can drag any leader back to the majority consensus whenever it wishes. Starmer issues started well before his poor judgement call regarding Mendelson.

Agreed, but cabinet ministers, from both genders must take equal responsibility.

The danger for the Labour Government is not who should replace Starmer but to prevent the process turning into a gender battle. Harriet Harman has already decided that @teamlabouruk.bsky.social failures stem from a male culture and not from poor policy choices.

In what world do we treat gender like a commodity that can be bought and sold at the whim of the undecided.
The human race is rapidly losing sight of how we fit into the truths of nature and there will be many who suffer after deciding that truth is not on their agenda.

Starmer has always been reluctant to surround himself with governing ability, hence Reeves, Cooper etc.
Bringing Burnham within the front bench would at least provide the cabinet with a sense of competence.

On assisted dying legislation the government is happy to abdicate its responsibilities by bowing down to public opinion.
If that really is the case a private memberโ€™s bill for a return of the death penalty canโ€™t be too far away.

Starmer is like a weather vane and as soon as he saw the criticism of Mr Trump gaining traction & with public support he jettisoned his sycophancy for more pragmatic principles.

If there is to be a plus from the ramblings of Donald Trump it is confirmation that the future of the UK is dependent on a closer link to Europe.
Brexit was always against the UKโ€™s economic and security interest and Starmer should be encouraged to speed up re-alignment.

Mark Carney ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆ has moved effortlessly from finance to politics and is without doubt a most impressive leader.
Calm, considered, principled and knowledgeable, Canadians are fortunate to have such an effective Prime Minister.

You may not have water running through your taps, but my financial bonus is fully intact. The con trick of the Thatcherite utilities privatisation programme continues to live on unashamedly.

We are living in extraordinary times as Trump continues to impose his chaos within the worldโ€™s diplomatic process.
Threats, cajoling, bullying, lying with a large portion of hubris have now become the trademark of the President of the United States.

A very decent West Midlands chief constable has been sacrificed on the alter of the Labour Partyโ€™s obsession with being friends of Israel.
Keeping Israeli football hooligans from any UK street should never be a sackable offence, irrespective of who their UK friends may be.

When the Thatcher government privatised the UK water industry,many anticipated that a profit & dividend policy would result in the shortages that are currently witnessed in Kent & Sussex today.
