It feels so good to have rediscovered my motivation for writing stories again. It feels like I'm getting a good pace with it too.

I look at that and then think, imagine if we did make all of those public and reinvested profits into society.

How we could help the NHS, police, education and defence, all while reinvesting in those areas too.

Has anyone told her and in fact the Tory party as a whole, that it isn't working?

They're still in the cesspit of political irrelevance, and honestly, it's hard to see a way out given the lack of talent amongst their ranks.

Can you ask Fiona what her thoughts are on potentially losing the vote should Reform get in? You know, what with her being born in Malaysia and all.

Definitely disagree that Bishop is more deserving of the place in the starting line up.

Love Bishop, but he isn't producing, I don't see any harm in putting Brown in for a few games and seeing what happens.

It's incredible what has happened to me over the last few weeks.

I've never really spoken politics with my in-laws, never really had the courage to call them out on some of their BS.

But recently I've become a lot more vocal about calling it out and debating more. How long until I enter politics?

People have seen the shit show of other Reform councillors and realised that actually, local councillors do actually have to do work, they can't just sit on their arses getting paid and stuff magically happens.

And hopefully over the coming months and years, infighting will tear Reform apart, sending them into the cesspit of political irrelevance.

There's a reason she's doing badly in the polls and it's because she cannot comprehend the mood of the public.

I don't think she's done well at reading the mood of the public.

At a time when we're all struggling, do we really want to be dragged into another illegal war and have money moved from welfare to defence?

She's utterly clueless and she's dragging the Tory party to its deathbed.

Do we send Sir Mo Farah back to Somalia then? Will Reform ask him to leave his Olympic medals when he goes?

Reform UK are utterly disgusting.

Kemi Badenoch is so bad at this and just cannot read the mood of the British public.

She wants money spent on defence rather than the welfare of her own country.

What money Kemi? There is fuck all around unless you want the billionaires to start paying tax.

Good god, these people are insufferable.

I am not having Olympic Gold Medal winner Sir Mo Farah deported because these people cannot understand the stupidity behind their racism.

He created moments that brought the country together, and they'd rather tear us apart.

"The collapse of good behaviour and morals in our society."

Has Mr Kruger paid any attention to the party he's in?

Pretty sure lying, racism and xenophobia are neither moral nor good behaviours, but perhaps I'm wrong.

I'm not sure "Jab the world, let them lose their excess fat." Will have quite the same impact for Band Aid.

To any authors on here, what would you say is a good average daily amount of words to write while juggling a full time job?

I hope Malaysian born Fiona Bruce really presses the next Reform representative on Question Time.

After all, it's her right to vote that'll be on the line.

Now don't get me wrong, I don't like either Zahawi or Johnson, but would I change the rules to stop them from voting? Absolutely not.

This is how democracy dies.

First they'll ban citizens not born here, then they'll stop votes for women and then finally the working class man will lose his vote.

Here is a list of people who wouldn't be able to vote if Reform were to enact their plans to only allow British born citizens to vote:

Sir Mo Farah
Boris Johnson
Nadhim Zahawi
Raheem Sterling
Fiona Bruce
Rita Ora
Emma Watson
Tessa Sanderson
Richard E Grant

I could understand keeping him off if he had like 9 shots but scored 1, it'd show some sort of output, but he couldn't do that and it baffles me that Mousinho is persisting with him.

If he's not producing anything of note, there really is no harm in trying an alternative, Brown or maybe Caballero.

This is exactly it.

He's not solely at fault for the fact we weren't 3/4-0 up by the time this incident happened.

Hull's keeper did very well, but we should've been burying so many of those chances.

Hoping Brown gets a chance ahead of Bishop next match.

Desperately need to get a new striker in the summer.

I agree, I think it's unfair to single him out.

This is the second game in a few weeks where we've absolutely dominated the match and come away with a 1-0 defeat at home.

He might be responsible for the goal against us, but he's not solely responsible for us failing to bury our chances.

I think the majority of us love Bishop and are eternally grateful for his goals helping us get promoted.

But I think we need to seriously look for a new striker, not a future prospect, but one who can go straight into our team.

The Championship just looks a step too far for him. #Pompey

When the sack of orange human shit who currently occupies the White House eventually leaves this Earth, is there a games developer out there who could create a Command and Conquer Red Alert style game depicting this time in geopolitical history?

EA won't, because they're even more soulless now.

I'd argue they're likely hemorrhaging votes from the left and losing votes from the centre.

Then chasing the small amount of votes they lost to the right who won't vote for them again anyway because Reform have convinced them they want open borders, regardless of their immigration policies.

He clearly cannot read the room.

In denial about who he's up against and what the people of this nation are looking for in their politicians.

This is their chance to change to help us all, but they're clearly not going to do that while Klueless Keir is in charge.
