Petition: Apply for the UK to rejoin the EU fully - do not just 'reset' the relationship

Given the abject horror that has taken place you'd think, for once that Trump wouldn't make it all about himself. But like a stuck record, there he is... going on about himself

We said it was Fascism.

Now the President's 19 year old son will be put on the board of a $300bn company.

It's Fascism.

In case anyone was wondering, “Give us your land or we will bomb you and take it” is not a peace deal; it’s extortion by artillery. A peace deal requires consent.

The 3 Day Week and power cuts were under Ted Heath's Tory Government.

And the strikes were under Margaret Thatcher.

Have a good day.
