Is there an add on, for £500, that allows you the privilege of cutting up the 1/2 time orange?

It’s almost as if these ‘case studies’ were lined up and ready to go beforehand. The Mails’ examples are particularly funny & predictable, ‘ The minimum wage increase for 18 year olds will cripple us!!!’
‘ I may as well go on benefits, I’m being punished for being such a patriotic striver!!!’ etc

How people can abandon pets is just beyond me. So good to see that your Mum gave him a loving home.

Jeremy Warner never supported Brexit in the 1st place. The only sane voice on that paper. It’s not evidence that the Telegraph has changed at all. If they stop platforming Hannan & Frost, that might mean something

Apart from that, I’m intrigued about the ‘glossiness’ of that Royal calendar, what an odd thing to highlight. Hard job to ‘gloss’ over the actions of that nice Mr Mountbatten-Windsor- Saxe- Coburg though

Just dreadful. I have found EDF simply awful to deal with as a UK customer. Subsidising France for an essential service, what a legacy that is for privatisation. What an idiotic country we are to endorse it

He demonstrated his change of heart by championing a convicted racist at his conference. His drooling fanbase treated her like the 2nd coming of Christ. Substantive case?

Any attempt to try and reverse the inequality in the UK us inevitably described as a a ‘raid’, in certain quarters. Why on earth does a single 88 year old need to live in a 6 bedroom house if they can’t afford to. Or just take out EQ FFS.

Not bad at all, reminds me a bit of Amazing Grace. McCartney could come up with melodies that appealed to millions, of all ages. No fluke this sold so well.

He clearly saw it as his patriotic duty to speak up for pro-Russian TV stations, or maybe something else motivated him. Nothing murky about these UKIP/Brexit Party/Reform (hard to keep up) chancers at all

Yes, good to regularly point out the sheer waste, cost and idiocy inflicted on the nation.
“the original plan for the UKCA mark to fully replace the CE mark as the sole mandatory mark in Great Britain, was significantly rolled back due to industry pressure and the desire to reduce business burdens”

Yes, and people with the critical thinking skills & memory of a goldfish, will actually pay money to read the dis-credited bollocks these ‘ star’ columnists churn out. Baffling

We advised our elderly Mum, with chronic COPD, to self isolate awhile before negligent Johnson was forced to lock down. Social media was a godsend then, if you followed the right experts. ‘Be alert’, fuckin’ hell, it makes me angry to think about it

Yes, regrettably I did the same. A full on onslaught by many of the usual suspects to discredit the enquiry, and defend the gross negligence. Deeply insulting to all who suffered

That, and that much of society, businesses, sport, etc had already made their own decision, despite Govt. inaction. Spineless & negligent Johnson simply had to follow suit in the end

Well put. Anyone with an ounce of sense had locked themselves down beforehand, because we were clearly on our own by that point. I’ll never forgive their negligence, or those who endorse these disgusting people, & still do.

I’m going to run a piece of cloth, with a Turkey image on it, up the lamppost outside my house on Xmas eve, just to demonstrate what a proper patriot I am.

Dear Sarah, don’t actually express the thoughts that are in your head, yours, top ‘thinker’ Montie (who isn’t too keen to be associated, in any way, with ‘the thickie knuckle draggers’, although he’s now officially one of them)

It makes me laugh that these no-marks think they know better than professional marketers about how to sell products. Only targeting the ‘reform’ demographic would be a very stupid thing to do, obviously

Iain comes across as an old school Tory, I ‘m sure he’s a decent fella. But overnight, a proposed welfare cut, to enable tax cuts for house buyers (biggest benefit to those buying expensive houses)
top trumps the ‘disgust’ he felt about leaving the ECHR. Personal gain always does the trick
