FIFA are as bent as the orange paedo so they make a perfect couple

Everyone knew that Sepp Blatter was corrupt but the current FIFA bosses are arguably even worse...

This makes no sense…

An MP can wake up one morning, ditch the party you elected them for, & sign up to a completely different manifesto…

No thanks

If they defect to a different party, we should get a vote

Subtitles were awful on #BBC #MatchOfTheDay tonight ⚽

For example, the commentator said "Beautiful by Guimarães"
and the subtitles said "Beautiful by gibberish" and I thought "Well, that sums your subtitles up quite well tonight!" 😆

Managed to bag a #cheese bargain from #Morrisons, which doesn't happen very often these days for home delivery customers like me

They got in some Brie with white truffle for the Xmas rush and were selling them off at a quid each, so I grabbed 5 😊

Sound as a pound 💷

MMT threatens vested interests in the economy and in economics, that's why we can't talk about it.

I would probably word it slightly differently

Now more than ever, they're seen as a two timing, back stabbing, and disloyal nation without integrity

I have plenty of friends in the USA who are intelligent, upstanding people with integrity

Needless to say, none of them voted for the orange paedo

Much as I loathe Netanyahu, arguably one of the most evil people on the planet, I also strongly dislike the word 'Zionist' being used in posts

It makes people sound like Muslim fundamentalists to me 🤷‍♂️

People who claim to oppose racism seem to think the word is OK

Maybe I'm being over-sensitive? 🤔

P.S. How would the love of your life feel if you bought them a top which said 'Moody Mare'? Wifey loved it, partially because it was really good quality and had nice lining material 😊😁
