Mate, I'm sorry to hear this. I don't have any answers but I do know that head/logic beats heart/emotions every day.
Please hang in there and keep plugging away, that's all any of us can do these days.

I see Dean Cain is becoming an ICE agent.

I did vote Labour and probably will again; that said, not been convinced with some Labour plans (disabled/benefits especially) but the "long-game" is key in politics.
I'll make a more committed decision about 6 months out from the GE after taking a longer look at the metrics/KPIs.
"invasion", "fighting age men", "civil unrest", "BANNED", and so on. And the treatment that undesirable guests receive when they don't fit the narrative. 2/2

Also, the language being used by TV/radio hosts and "commentators" follows a pattern; 1/2
I understand that Nick Ferrari is a guest on the Nigel Farage breakfast show on LBC tomorrow.

This could be a major turning point in his life; potential (but unlikely) penalty is life imprisonment. Likely c6+ years; cue incoming Go Fund Me.....
He has plenty of "aggravating factors" but the tank has run dry with regard to mitigating ones.
Fleeing the country would be looked at very dimly.

Not beneath him to select one where we don't have a solid extradition treaty with; United Arab Emirates comes to mind.

Make of that what you will.
I heard that too. I bet it will be tantamount to incitement with a smattering of words like, βtinder boxβ, βknife edgeβ, βlawlessβ, βcivil warβ, βlost controlβ and many others. At a time when responsible broadcasting is needed more than ever, I donβt have much faith in him.

I often feel the same way re Romesh Ranganathan and his popularity.
I believe that he is on Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg tomorrow; I'm not holding my breath to see any in-depth questioning.

17.07.2025 16:58 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0A friend of mine raves about the channel; he's deaf to my explanation that it's a vehicle of Paul Marshall &, guess what, he wants to broadcast only what he wants.
He refuses to sense/reality check anything he sees on there, despite me politely de-bunking items. It's cult TV basically.
Pretty sure itβs The IT Crowd.

Not at all. Too intrusive in my opinion.
I have an issue with proxemics - really grates on me.
I remember one of my sonβs sports days when I entered the fatherβs race. One of the dads was Rhino from Gladiators; for a big lad he moved like Usain Bolt.
