Usually cycling the Northern Fells or the hills around Paphos. An asylum seeker from Twitter & Brexit - likely to go off on a tangent for no reason at all........ I'm not an Expat I'm an immigrant & grateful for being accepted by my adopted home

Well I suggest you take it up with Boris Johnson, David Frost & Priti Patel...... they're responsible for your problems, not us! NEXT?
A reminder..... You haven't paid in to your State Pension all your life..... You've paid for the pensions of those who were retired during that time. YOUR State Pension will be paid for by the people who are working in your retirement.....

For the Conservatives this really isn't a bad thing.... let all the headbangers pop over to Reform... Oust Badenoch..... Find a sensible centre right figure that can drag the party back from the edge & purge every last ERG / BXP / UKIP type in the fold....
