Ex-a few things, now mow lawns and shout at trees.
There's enough for everyone, some people need to learn to share better.
Into old toys, sci-fi, comics, films.
I run because I have to ... you'll never see a cheetah jogging for fun.

We residents of Watford will get our pitchforks out.

Thatcher ran up the UK a cheap* suit; they've all been wearing it ever since, and now it's coming apart at the seams.
Can't keep repairing it, it's had its day. Looks shabby and our arse is on show.
Needs throwing out and a new one to replace it.

*Not all that cheap; her dogma has cost us trillions

Start with closing tax loopholes and investigating tax avoidance & evasion.

I had a look on Amazon Prime .... most things were pay-to-view. Can't say I want to see any Bond films again. Nor do I want to fund Jeff's joyrides to space.
Have we reached the point in our history where we have to sell our children to fund the fantasies of billionaires?

Have to say, I won't be wearing ANY $168 jumpers, no matter what colour or pattern.
One plate of Spag. Bol. and it will be game over for that one.

Labour going to order a proper inquiry into Russian interference?

I worked with a Spanish chap who criticised my calling Franco a fascist. Apparently he was merely a Catholic conservative.
I know conservatives and a lot of Catholics; none have them have imprisoned political opponents, journalists, their families or taken their children [among other things].
Spain has too rosy a view of Franco’s regime. Let’s remind ourselves of its horrors | Giles Tremlett
Little is taught about the murderous, incompetent dictatorship – and now almost one in five young people say Franco was good for the country, says historian Giles Tremlett

She writes in the Daily Mail and plots 'revenge' on her own children.
Not surprised they don't want the miserable old twat.
All Mail reporters should be shunned by their families. Vile creatures.

Has Starmer got the balls to call for investigations into Russia & Reform? Doubtful.
Whatever happened to that inquiry report?

Don't know what the Chancellor is sweating about. Even I managed a £58bn surplus.
I hit the better off, taxed gambling & banks, closed a few tax loop-holes, taxed electric vehicles & capped pension tax relief. Easy.😂
Could you do better than Reeves as chancellor? Play our interactive budget game
Can you pull the levers of power to deliver a successful budget? Can you keep backbenchers happy without upsetting the bond markets? And can you do it all while keeping the books balanced? Try our bud...

"they expect a reduction in jury trials to lead to more .... miscarriages of justice." Because that's never happened with juries deciding the outcome.

About time all elected leaders, law enforcement, judges and those running churches in the USA had their hard drives and bank accounts checked.
Starting to look like the place is run by nonces and traitors.

Come the day they must be made to pay.

Reform spokesperson: "I’m saying there is no primary evidence. It’s one person’s word against another …" So just eyewitnesses; some may even call that primary evidence.

In the last few days I've spoken with people I considered sensible & reasonable. They've brought up small boats and got angry.
When confronted with facts regarding actual numbers, hotels, asylum claims etc. they change the subject.
It's almost like they want to have someone to hate.

If it was me I'd say I was young and stupid. I've learnt I was wrong. I'm sorry for my past behaviour, but I'm very different now.

So why isn't he?

Must we have this for every generation?
Boomers were mocked for their haircuts & fashion and avoiding National Service.
Gen X for being cynical & wasters
And now we have a new bunch to pick on.

Turns out we're all the same and none of us could fight a war .... until we have to.

Confession: I voted for Starmer as leader.
His leadership & political skills are terrible. He's turned out to be cowardly and non-commital on too many subjects.
Don't tell me the good he's done, as he's failed to engage on so many important matters.
I left Labour over Gaza. Not going back.

Get out whilst they can.
Only a matter of time before they're simply human incubators for the next generation of 'warfighters' and cheap farmhands.
