I like where I live but I don’t “love” the U.K.

These are earphones.

They’re a technology that has been around for some years now.

So why the hell do so many people on public transport not use them preferring to use the loud speaker on their phone?

Ignorant twats!

What is a “Proper Brexit”?

Is it one which ruins the country even more than it he one which is happening now?

Why does anyone think an advisory vote 10 years ago is even valid in 2026?

Discuss!

Extreme arrogance by the Starmer faction.

I wasn’t sure that Burnham’s move was the right one but blocking his bid shows very poor judgement.

A phrase I used to use when I was teaching with a stroppy pupil was “engage brain before using gob”

Seems appropriate here for the American Idiot (sorry Green Day)…….but of course he needs a brain first.

I noticed that following the awful train crash in Spain they have announced “3 days of national mourning”.

What does 3 days of national mourning actually mean?

This is a genuine question and not meant to be disrespectful.

I'm a train driver, I'll blow my horn and wave at any kids, elderly or drunks who give me the sign, I love it. But trainspotters pestering us to blow the horn, filming everything we do including mistakes so they can upload it can fuck off. Nobody likes a grass.

We are living in dangerous times.

Trump is out of control.

I can see it now that Trump will tie up a deal with Ukraine with one of acquiring Greenland (all with the agreement of Putin of course).

I think it’s called Blackmail.

Following the news that one of the first things a Nigel Farage Reform government would do is ensure that “the young are taught correctly about our history”, I have been passed these leaked pages from Reform’s proposed GCSE history textbook.

Trump bombs Venezuela apparently kidnapping the President and trying to force regime change.

Is this any different to what Putin has been doing in Ukraine?

Once again Nigel Farage has been denied a knighthood. Still eligible for a white hood.

According to my wife the first thing guests do when they arrive at our house is to check for dust and specks of fluff on an un-vacuumed carpert rather than realising they’re getting free food and drink.
