It was a Triumph Herald convertible JUL 33D and I bought it from a friend who was emigrating in 1973. It was red and I loved it.

I can tell you from vast experience that when police are given additional authority, power or equipment, THEY WILL IMMEDIATELY ABUSE IT.

Changing the name from Police Officer to Law Enforcement Officer and training them in Command and Control instead of de-escalation creates a degenerate mentality.

Reform is just a distraction from how awful the tories were, Reform is just a symptom of how easily the general public is misled, it's depressing 😕

The reasoning behind government wanting us to “ask AI” for information is simple, so they can feed AI propaganda answers and it will lie for them. No more direct access to unfiltered data. No thank you.

Oops. They accidentally said 'erroneous' when they meant to put 'fraudulent'. Easy mistake when talking about hereditary tory peers, I suppose.

I waited so many years for a Labour government and I am SO disappointed. The worst thing is I hated the Tories for saving money by putting their boots on the necks of the poorest and now Labour are doing exactly that. No wonder people are deserting the 2 main parties. Shame on you.

I simply don't get why Starmer is being so obstinate about this. He's an intelligent man. Surely he can see how much harm brexshit has done/is doing to the UK. He's in serious danger of being a one-term PM - unless he sees sense.
