Trump as Orangemandias! If you know you know. If you’re puzzled, Google Percy Bysshe Shelley. And then another one : MAGAmemnon 😂 But that doesn’t work as well as the original reference was described as eloquent, wise & noble. Mind you he was murdered by his wife, or his wife’s lover.

If UK Labour followed our policy lead, 800,000 fewer children would be in poverty.
