I approach the shop; it’s open. I carry the papers in and I snip the bundles. A man comes in, buys milk, goes out. The shopkeeper tells me it’s mild today. We stand still for a moment.

The media, such as BBC, doing all the speculation about Burnham and his "challenge" - If he does stand will be "civil war" and if he doesn't Starmer will have "blocked him through fear of challenge". In so many areas they create the issue and then discuss at end, before spinning outcomes negatively.

a) He was born there.
b) He was originally at the Saints academy
c) He finished his career at Saints

Fuck this guy. With bells on. By his “standards” I’m not even British. And anyone who isn’t white only serves to be his taxi driver. He’s a filthy individual and it galls me that despite repeated chances he hasn’t evolved at all and people still give him a platform.
A reminder that racist historian David Starkey, said in 2020:
"Slavery was not genocide, otherwise there wouldn't be so many damn blacks in Africa or in Britain would there? An awful lot of them survived."
He's speaking at this year's How The Light Gets In festival.

This festival is billing him as “provocative.” He’s not provocative, he’s a bigot who’s never shown an ounce of remorse for his unforgivably racist and xenophobic garbage and they should be ashamed.

NATO did not "stay a little back, off the front lines."
Danish, British and Estonian troops served in Helmand, and Canadian forces in Kandahar - the two most dangerous Afghan provinces.
Denmark, UK, Estonia & Canada suffered amongst the highest per‑capita soldier death rates when defending the US.

Trump on NATO: "I've always said, will they be there if we ever needed them? That's really the ultimate test. I'm not sure of that. We've never needed them. They'll say they sent some troops to Afghanistan and this or that. And they did. They stayed a little back, off the front lines."
