America is now a complete shithole - arresting their own citizens and doing this to them. How is this any different to North Korea or Russia? Land of the Free - roflol.

Maybe there's something in this Nigel Farage and Nathan Gill Russian bribes story....

Lots of stories about Nathan Gill and Russian bribes.

Agreed, they should be banned from everything, they need to learn you can't behave like that and everyone thinks it's all fine. They are a murderous state with vile leaders. I shall never knowingly buy anything from there ever again.

Lovely to see my fellow countryman Mark Williams is through to the final in the Xi'an snooker. He has been such a great competitor for decades, and how he keeps going is quite inspiring.

Aphrodite is here accompanied by Peitho, Persuasion. The ancient Greeks really valued persuasive speakers, enough to personify the skill and make her a goddess. What is Aphrodite holding in her hand here, do you think…?

Lovely to see Israel getting thrashed - they don't deserve to be anywhere near decent people and civilised society after what they have done in Gaza. They are no better than North Korea in my book now.
