I felt physically sick watching that. Why aren’t there mass demonstrations in the USA against a President bringing more and more shame on the country every day?

You forgot to mention the bit about him also being an adjudicated rapist.

A bellend on a McClelland if you were wondering.

The Rwanda Plan was always just an obscenely expensive gimmick that would have had no effect on the number of migrants crossing the channel. It was also utterly immoral.

I am uncomfortable with overtly religious Christmas songs in public places at the best of times. But sitting having breakfast at a hotel in Indonesia listening to β€œGo tell it on the mountain” blasting out is particularly cringeworthy.

We had the same one for at least a decade - at the end of Christmas all the doors would be closed and it would be packed away for next year. Still didn’t stop me and my brother from arguing over who’s turn it was each morning.

As the UK population ages and fertility rates drop, immigration is essential to slow the increase in the old age dependency ratio.

The best thing about living in Singapore is the easy access to some awesome destinations in Asia. Like this weekend in Fraser’s Hill, Malaysia, spotting some incredible wildlife.

…seems that since Brexit the Tories have given up on serious policies and have decided to fight on culture wars and division. Seeing what’s happened in the US and the rise of Reform, I fear this might end up being a winning strategy.

I suppose that now I have a handful of followers I ought to post something! Firstly about me - In my mid-50s and don’t know whether I’ve shifted further to the left as I’ve got older, or the traditional centre-right (Tories) have moved further to the right. Suspect a bit of both…..

I was about to Google β€œErotic Exotic” to see who my doppelgΓ€nger is - but then thought better of it fearing what else I might find with that search term!
