Retired old fool. Share my time between Sussex and the Var France. So pleased Doris & Co have gone, very sad that Starmer is the best we’ve got. Quite easily wound up, but hopefully less so on here

In Epping & Ongar, current HQ of the shouty flag people, 36% of reported crime in June (107 reports) was for Violence & Sexual Offences (I believe the hotel based migrant was charged with 3 offences)

There is such a “rabbit caught in the headlights” feel about Starmer as he lets the shouty flag people and those that rile them up set the agenda. Just been on X, it’s as rabid as ever, he’s lost the battle, seems he was never really in it.

I rarely find I want to argue in France but aspire, perhaps forlornly, to be confident that I might one day be able to eloquently.
