I'm puzzled as to why the need for insults ? As for the Corbyn reference, I'm not sure if you're trying to needle my Jewish background, I don't know. Still as Harry Callahan would say "Opinions are like assholes. Everyone has one".

I've been angry about it all since late 2020 when one of my best friends died from a very aggressive form of bowel cancer - he wasn’t even 60. What compounded the situation is that he was denied access to cancer screening for 6 months due to the State Govt’s denial of hospital visits for any...

Mark Steyn: Decision to 'make example' of Djokovic was a 'political stunt'

I'm not sure if it's in jest as you can never can quite tell on a post. So in you opinion, justice and the rule of law should be dependent on whether you like or dislike a person ?

I'm no fan of him but the politicalisation of Novak Djokovic by the Federal government is a disgrace and an international embarrassment. Rather than pick a long overdue fight with the state Premiers over their obscene tyranny, it has decided to pick a fight with a person who committed the so...

Australians overseas were kept out of the country. Cross-state travel within Oz was severely curtailed. Lockdowns were frequent and punishing. People were kept away from dying relatives, from loved ones’ funerals, from family and friends. ‘We suffered all of that and yet Djokovic can waltz into...

Agree DWF re Monty Python's films - Life Of Brian has aged very well . . . seems even more funnier today than it was 43 years ago ! Would be interesting to know for others re films that have made them cry . . . as an adult ! ! ! My Mum tells me I cried when Bambi's mum was shot but I have no...

First win at Old Trafford for 42 years ! Excellent organisation - who'd have thought that our defence would be even better than under Nuno (and without Boly). Neves and Moutinho were magnificent - unfortunately our front third is still a concern, Podence played well and Fabio had a good cameo.

And they’ve conceded 19 more.

Sorry . . . missed that !

Well musicals don't get much love . . . very blokey ! syncophantia had The Jungle Book and I had Singin' In The Rain . .

A Merry Xmas to you all from Down Under.

Well here’s my top 100 - even made a compilation video of them as well (the things you do during lockdown) ! Top 20 1. 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968) 2. Lawrence Of Arabia (1962) 3. Citizen Kane (1941) 4. Dr. Strangelove (1964) 5. Singin’ In The Rain (1952) 6. Schindler’s List...

100% agree. My interest is waning each year now (obviously I don’t have a season ticket) and with the “decisions” that have gone against Wolves all in favour of the big clubs it just gets disheartening. I rarely get up or stay up to watch the game live anymore.

Man Utd wore all blue in probably their greatest and most emotional game in the club’s history. Oh and by the way the 2018/19 Wolves shirt is my favourite since the halcyon days of the 70s.

Agreed . . . always had items delivered within 2-3 weeks after travelling half way around the world. Last order though took 4 months ! ! ! Not the fault of the club shop . . . arrived in Oz within 10 days of ordering the stuff and then Australia Post, in their infinite wisdom, decided the...

I’ve spent close to 20 years of my life living in England . . . albeit not in the last 25 years.

Surely the purpose of the NHS is to allow people to live their lives to the fullest and longest, without having to worry unduly about getting ill or paying massive bills for healthcare. It is there to treat people when they are sick and, from time to time, to check on them to make sure they are...

It might be claptrap to you but as I’m Jewish whose family from 2 generations ago were all murdered, I have found the ominous totalitarian tendencies of many Western govts during this pandemic deeply disturbing.

Eloquently said Wolfman 👍 We‘ve had 263 days of hard lockdown in Melbourne (world record). I’m pretty resilient but the last lockdown of 77 days got me very depressed. Life is for living with the associated risks, not living under a doona for the rest of our lives.
