Why is it people in this country HATE beautiful and successful people?
The vicious flak & hate mail Michelle Mone & her husband are receiving is totally uncalled for and motivated by envy and jealousy.
Let’s celebrate their success instead of attacking them all the time!

The chief executive officer of the USA is raising revenue through import duties without consulting the representatives of the people; exactly 250 years on from the start of the American Revolution.

Chris Philp will never call Sarah Pochin a racist.
He’d never call Hitler a fascist.
Never call Jack the Ripper a murderer.
Never call Stalin a tyrant.
Why?
Because he is a lovely man & sees the best in everyone.
That’s why he’s loved by all.
Our Saint.❤️
