We're down but not out, Tony. Still fancy us to win the 21st title and another European trophy before your lot do.
Although, to be fair, I've been wrong in the past.

They've got to invade Canada first. I wish I was joking.

Not fair on Chamberlain, who at least bought time to prepare. Trump rolled over for a couple of bad taste Trump Hotels in St. Petersburg and Moscow by selling out the Ukranians. Shameful and craven doesn't even come close. A new low for humanity.
History will be harsh judging the USA.

Governance is about making difficult and unpopular choices for the best of the country. Unfortunately, we have timid managerial reactionaries more concerned with focus groups and lessening the inevitable bile from Mail editorials. See Brexit.
A pathetic, weak, and embarrassing failure to govern.

Cue 12+ years of exasperation as shouts and calls are ignored, and Órlaith stubbornly refuses to return from wherever it is she's decided to run off to.

"Their Majesties" a two word summing up of the monumental absurdity of this tired institution, as well as the pathetic supplicant mentality of the people that continue to buy into the whole con.
It's time to kill it off as well as the stultifying class system that holds us all back.

I'd always thought that Tommy "what a monumental bellend" Robinson was actually a hobbit himself, only far shorter.
Thank god that "visionary" gobshite space Karen is online to put me right on that score.

Great news. We visited during September. My fifth visit. I love your country, and I look forward to the sixth.

I agree, but from the bit I've read, I think the point they were emphasising was that the "reduce public expenditure" option will involve taking seriously unpopular choices, rather than simply firing the odd diversity officer.
Which raises questions for the populist right.

I'm afraid so. We had an airedale, and she was far easier than our Welshie. Welsh terriers are rightly infamous.
🤔 Although thinking on, maybe the "she" rather than "he" might be the clue?

Oh no, you didn't believe that "We'll walk him, we'll clean up the poo, we'll feed him." bullshit from the kids did you?

Brilliant! Got a Welshie myself. A smaller, but far less manageable version of an airedale.

Ekitike has hit the ground running, which begs the question why wasn’t he starting? Our defence is looking poor as well. We should have concentrated on getting Guehi rather than Isak.

Yeah, but we missed them, Bobby. We didn't win. We were useless first half and failed to capitalise on our dominance second half. Our defence made far too many mistakes.

We (LFC) were dire, but I disagree. Utd were easily better during the first half. We totally bossed the second but squandered far too many chances. Our clown car defence let us down. Again.
Fair play to United. They took their chances, and that's what counts.

We we weren't unlucky, we were shit. The defence was a shambles. Fair play to Gakpo, Ekitike and Chiesa, but nobody else turned up.

If you have a private pension plan like most, rather than a public sector one, then you have no choice but to "dabble in the stock market".

I totally agree. His voice will have far greater traction than the opinion of any number of opposition figures or posts here.

Nah, I do all the NYT free ones, and I find the hard (and sometimes the medium) pips can be really quite tough. 1:09 is brilliant. The best I've done on the hard ones is 2:40. Well done!
I used to be a real whizz at the letter boxed, but the bastards made it a pay one.

TBH, I can't stand Woody Allen films, but Diane was wonderful in my favourites, The Godfather and The Godfather 2. RIP Diane.
