Listening to GB(very right wing)Views this morning, I was cheered enormously by young Farquar's pronunciation of the late Brigitte Bardot's surname. Instead of doe as in deer it was dot as in hot. Where do they find them?

Who's paying for all the flags and who paid for all the coaches that took the patriots to London yesterday?

No place for Rentiers in the Labour movement, Rushanara Ali.

Might be time to quit Bluesky considering the foul-mouthed postings appearing in ever increasing numbers. Is this platform being spoiled by X people?

Just considering two old guys of 79 years of age. One wants to be a king. One is a king. One headlined Glastonbury on Saturday night. One got his daddy to get him a sick note for the Vietnam war. Any guesses?

It's truly amazing to reflect that Kiefer Sutherland has played two characters who reflect US politics. On the one hand, the present day trauma, so accurately personified in Freddie Lee Cobb and everybody else's hope for POTUS, Tom Kirkman.

Do Americans call themselves "middle class" when they are really "working class" as a determination not to be associated with "coloured folks" who, logically, must be the working class. It's very puzzling for white, working class people

Just watched Alex Phillips on "Politics Live" and her views on the reopening of Welsh coal mines. Talk about away with the fairies.......

The struggle of the working class is like the growth of a plant. The plant is blind and stupid, but it knows enough to keep pushing upwards towards the light, and it will do this in the face of endless discouragements.

To win over the working class permanently, the Fascists would have to raise the general standard of living, which they are unable and probably unwilling to do.

Too ignorant to see through the trick that is being played on them, they easily swallow the promises of Fascism, yet sooner or later they always take up the struggle again.

During my happy life, I have learned of Americans who have received the Medal of Honour. My top three are Audie Murphy, John Basilone and Desmond Doss. These outstanding individuals must be turning in their graves to see the despicable antics of the coward-in-chief D J Trump and his cronies.

I wonder if we will ever get to see the video Putin has of Trump up to his shady worst with naughty Russian ladies of the night?

How come the USA produces such a great citizen as Desmond Doss and then decades later chooses as its C in C a chicken shit who got his dad to get him a "medical" condition to avoid going to Vietnam? People of Virginia, how come 46% of you voted for a coward?

Which TV station is the most anti BBC, ITV or GB News?

Where are Pakistani rape gangs operating today? Lee Anderson is convinced they are, even as I type this post. He is ranting and raving on GB Views about the Labour Party for pushing through their education bill last night instead of voting for the amendment which would have killed it.
