I haven'e seen it, but from your description I'm sure I'd agree. I started to watch Top Gun 2 a few weeks ago - I lasted about 20 minutes before the constant predictable cliches got too much. Shame - I was looking forward to it.

Excellent!

110% yes!

James, I so agree with you - it drives me crazy (and the right and the left - and even the centre supporters are not scrutinised when they use these words). Andrew Neil did a good job on Richard Nice recently. I also hate it when interviewees say "look..." Yes, I am looking - I'm not an idiot!

I think he said "who?" didn't he?

Is that good or bad?

Rightly or wrongly, It'll be seen as insensitive - wait a week, when it won't be headline news.

I agree Police only need a handful of Officers there, but the PA demo should be postponed out of respect for those that were (and are) affected by the Manchester attack - they'd also do their cause no harm at all - in fact the opposite.

Sorry James, I found the commentary cliched, hyped up, patronising and biased. However, yes, a great performance by England (Canada, a very good side themselves, were outplayed)- And who'd have thought, women play team sports other than football. Playing like girls? Just male footballers, it seems.

Here a Tory / Reform alliance would have a majority - A country with Farage, Tice & Badenoch leading the Govt? What could possibly go wrong!? Personally, I think the system rejected in a referendum is best - where voters choose 2nd, 3rd, etc choices. Extremist parties would get few 2nd choices

I am so sorry(for you and the rest of us) that around 75 million Americans (if we can believe the election wasn't fixed) thought differently- and thinking was not something indulged in by most of them. Similarly, I want the rest of the world to know I didn't vote for Brexit.

Thank you for saying this. I read this this morning and I thought "there's an elephant in the room" here - exactly what you have said. When is this nonsense going to stop? Among politicians atm only Ed Davey is making any sense. And possibly the Green Party

I don't think we need to worry, our PM, and fellow Labour Party leader, will be right there putting him right in support of his close colleague.

Proof that Boris Johnson is an arse (excuse my Latin).
