Bloody Starmer!

APPARENTLY it costs the NHS over £300,000 a year to remove foreign objects from people's rectums. Why aren't we removing British objects instead?

Today marks 16 years since the federal minimum wage was last raised.

Guess how much the wage would be today if it kept up with worker productivity over the years?

Our first cenote dive in Chikin Ha, Riviera Maya, a few weeks ago. Luckily there was a professional photographer on hand for another gig but he took this amazing shot of us as we neared the exit. The visibility was unreal.
