Just like the Brexiters saying 'we've had enough of experts' it's a way of saying 'we can't find enough (or any) experts to back our cause' therefore you have to believe in superstition and wild fantasies or we'll lose.

Says a man who is part of an administration largely funded and controlled by a gaggle of immensely wealthy religious maniacs. Who are also attempting to export their crackpotery to Europe via the far right.

No wonder Reform UK, the AFD and rassemblement national etc. are getting so excited . A vote for any of these is a vote for the Trumpification of your country.

What a wimp! A real man would have insisted on carrying. Hegseth is WOKE.

I think it's more likely that they came to the conclusion that there is no intelligent life on Earth. Given Brexit and Trump it's a reasonable conclusion to come to.

Whilst, at the same time, lecturing Europe on what they consider to be free speech.

Why do all the Trump regime women who appear in front of the TV cameras look the same?

Take your point, but there is no hope of him being convicted in the US under the Trump regime but if the UK is too frightened to even criticise his interference in UK (European) politics what hope is there?

whether it is legal or not in the UK how can a UK government remain silent when a foreigner calls for the violent overthrow of a democratically elected government?

Fear, fear of Trump, Musk and the RW press. Now, if he had a Palistine action poster he'd be bang to rights.

They tried to assassinate him on an escalator! Did you see how sharp those steps were? Damn you ANTIFA, not existing will not save you.

Again! Still thankfully it's in the Express, I assume it's sandwiched between the multiple "EU on brink of collapse" headlines.

"Blessed are the cheese makers". Imagine trying to make The Life of Brian in today's world of right wing religious crackpottery.

Musk obviously thinks, with enough money, the UK courts can be bought in just the same way as the US courts have been. Let's hope he's wrong.

Any idea how many of the pardoned Jan 6 rioters are now working for ICE?

Curious, not a peep about the, soon to be introduced, nearly identical UK system. Obviously the wicked EU is punishing us for Brexit while we are simply exerting our new found sovereignty.

If you are anti antifascist, what does that make you?

I miss the screaming "EU ON BRINK OF COLLAPSE" headlines, there used to be at least one a day in Brexit press.

"Ignore the prophets of doom. Brexit will be good for Britain" by Simon Jenkins.
Article no longer available on the Guardian archives as it is more than nine years old.

I'll always remember an episode of Look North when the reporter asked a Grimsby fisherman why he was so confident Brexit would be a "sea of opportunities", reply.. "I would trust Boris with my life". He's never been heard of since.

To be wholly fair it's a bit ambiguous here as well, the flu jab is free and the COVID jab is free on request apparently, I'll know on Tuesday. But £90 really.
