It also fails to address the concerns of the much larger band of people who are pretty pissed off that someone can get on a boat in a perfectly safe country to travel to another perfectly safe country to cherry pick which perfectly safe country they choose to live in, and all done at the...

Yes that can be the case, but we had a plan and researched it beforehand so made sure the specific type we chose was non-invasive and grew in a clump. After a year of pretty much just staring at it disappointingly and hoping it’d grow, last years thinning and feeding have worked wonders and...

After 2 seasons of mid-table obscurity I’m screen-shotting that and retiring.

Just done my first cycling tour with a group of mates. Epsom to Bishop’s Stortford on Thursday, 65 miles, almost all off road, right through central London twisting and turning along trails and towpaths, across Tower Bridge then up to Stortford. 35 Miles BS to Cambridge yesterday, some tough...

Arsenal 2 - 0 Wolves Not really fussed either way.

Top man. That’s an immense trip. Memories that last a lifetime. Enjoy!

Nice, off to Whistler, or east into the rockies?

I think this highlights some of the challenges. Proving one side has greater % of toxicity than the other doesn’t really matter when there is a huge amount of material available to suit your narrative on all sides. The far right are pulling out some very effective (to their ends) footage of...

Oh I don’t know. Quite a few years ago now the under 13’s football club my lad played for was trying to get donations and volunteers to drive to Calais to give to those camped up trying to get across. I said I thought it wasn’t something the club itself should be getting involved with and the...

Feels to me he just thinks it’s imperative the right of centre voice is heard and with the perception it’s increasingly silenced he was prepared to pay gazillions for X to facilitate that. Not sure if there’s any bigger game plan than that but who knows. As has been said he’s at risk of...

Back on the fox rollercoaster again…. Put a lot of work into the garden and it’s been looking great. Enjoying having the fox den under the shed and now the cubs are becoming young adults they’re out playing every evening. The dog goes loopy and chases them off when she’s outside but they seem...

I’d imagine there will be some pretty severe sentences served as a warning, same as with the JSO lot. In terms of parity of offence, the JSO targeting has very little to do with blocking the road, it’s essentially a group that has created mayhem on the public infrastructure with tremendous...

Assuming we’re asking companies to do the same the for anyone turning up covered in orange powder, orange paint or red paint for that matter, I’d say it’s a great idea.

I was at a wedding in Leighton Buzzard yesterday and stayed in the Wetherspoons Hotel. I felt like starting a riot to get myself out to be fair.

In both my kid’s workplaces you’d get some very scornful looks asking for a black or white coffee. Strictly ‘coffee’ or ‘coffee with milk’. I think they’ve managed to navigate it without rioting to be fair.

The rioting on the streets stops, the polarisation doesn’t. I just kicks the can down the road to the next warm evening when there’s nothing better to do.

There’s a whole debate around multiculturalism and whether it’s been a success or not. Farage and Johnson etc have put their size 9’s right into exploiting the areas where it clearly has some difficulties. Thing is with SM and camera phones there is enough supporting evidence to suit any...

Pretty sure open borders is the only way to stop the boats and that’ll end well.

We’re better placed with Labour in office, no doubt about that. There will be a fair few watching to see how he deals with the seemingly impossible task of stopping the boats long term though. It is something a lot of reasonable people want doing yet his solution seems to be stopping the people...

Years in the Tory making and Starmer finds himself the one holding the hand grenade with the pin removed. Could get a lot worse this unfortunately.
