Fuck politics theorists

I think the EU may become the first organisation to fail as a result of people who deceive themselves into thinking it’s failed.

She outsourced to a firm which advised her how much stamp duty she’d have to pay. She paid that much, the firm was wrong, and now she’s being crucified over it. The firm cocked up, but she’s paying the price.

Long live the Prince of Darkness. His works shall never be forgotten

Diddler on the roof!

Because if diplomacy doesn’t work, threats of nuclear war will.

Ozzy Osbourne dies just weeks after farewell show The heavy metal star reunited with his Black Sabbath bandmates on stage at Villa Park earlier in July.

Graduated yesterday while Trump opened a concentration camp in Florida

To check:
You get arrested for having a picture on your phone.
You have to give your phone password when you enter the US.

- Doctor Who series 1
It’s so fun!
