So over the past week we’ve had:
Russell Brand being charged with more sex offences.
A load of politicians/businessmen being involved with Epstein.
David Walliams being sacked & dropped for inappropriate behaviour towards women…
Yet none of the Reform lot are protesting?

Unbelievably, it's been 25 years since we lost Kirsty MacColl yet the beauty of her music and her memory still resonate. Here's a song I wrote for her to sing in the 1995 movie 'Mad Love'.

Just seen an article on BBC Sport suggesting that Trump's FIFA peace prize award may have been in someway corrupt. And I am shocked to my core.

Regardless of whether or not the Chancellor misled reporters at a news conference, until this first woman in 700 years was appointed as a Labour Chancellor, none in recent times had been subjected to continuous accusations of lying in a BBC political programme.

This week Nathan Gill, Reform UK’s Leader in Wales will be sentenced for 8 charges of Russian bribes.
Here’s Farage calling him an “honest, decent and honourable man”.
Let’s not forget that whilst he was taking the bribes, Farage was making similar pro-Russian speeches in the European Parliament.
