Honestly? F**k off. I'd rather we had our dignity than your entitlement and grudging financial contribution.
Asking rich foreigners to pay the same tax as everyone else is not "forcing" them to leave.

Today's Teesside Lead is totally free to read because I thought it was important people got to see what happens at TVCA's meetings.

Ben Houchen called the public's questions "completely insane" then threatened to kick them out.

I'm watching the press conference between President Macron and trump, and the President of France speaks and understands TWO languages way better than trump does, struggling with just English.

It's such a colossal embarrassment having trump representing the U.S.

We’re surrounded by treachery & lies, those openly betraying fact for fiction, utilising opinion as an alternate reality to aid political agenda, lies upon lies…. because there is no penalty for such.

That needs to change.

Afternoon Kuntie.

The situation is really serious and he’s only just started.

My very rational fear is a descent into large scale violence.

There are more firearms than people in the US. The prospect of one or two flashpoints being reached is high.

I usually believe there's no point worrying about things you can't control but most pple I know irl appear to be sticking their heads in the sand over the rise of fascism in the US. We need to be shouting it from the rooftops -
I can't help thinking this must be how it felt in the UK in the 1930s.

As the 5th anniversary of Brexit approaches, here's the chillingly methodical moment when the UK flag was removed from the EU Council building in Brussels. Since then, not a single Brexit promise has come true.

Nigel Farage isn't the answer to our problems, Britain. He is the cause of them.

Until my country can work that very simple puzzle out we are doomed.
