Still an offcomer after all these years. Aficionado of veggie food, bright tights, politics, frocks with POCKETS, and The Archers.

‘The Supreme Court ruled the phrase "post-milk generation" could confuse people over whether Oatly's products are completely milk-free or merely have a low milk content.’ What nonsense!

Who knew, mega pub chain boss Tim Martin would back Farage’s 'Deadbeat Dad' plan to take money from child support and spend it on beer ……:)

And, shock horror - Farage’s numbers don't add up. It will take nearly twice as much as he claims.

Classic.

This is pretty menacing.
