Every one of these ****s consciously chose to move to a society that runs on slave-labour.

Some of them will claim to be oblivious to that.

That makes them wicked AND stupid.

Newspapers that told their readers austerity, Brexit, Johnson & Truss would be brilliant are attacking the British Prime Minister for not unquestioningly following a lunatic President into an illegal attack. And on social media, he gets attacked from the other 'side' for doing the precise opposite!

Night. Roadworks on Pelikaanstraat, next to Antwerpen Centraal station, almost completely blocking the pavement and two pedestrian crossings. An orange sign, laughably, indicates that pedestrians should cross the road. But where? How? With luck they won't get run over by feckless drivers whose view is obscured by a mess of barriers, heaps of earth etc.
