Im gutted. Playing declaration as I type. Met him a couple of times, really nice bloke. So sad, he fought that awful disease for 30 odd years.

Squeeze - formed in 1974. Still going strong

I agree with you - word for word. Except that when you speak to Labour MPs or their associates you get the same view. I get manifesto commitments, but as Reeves keep telling us - the world has changed, never more so than this year. Brexiteers bang on about the UK regaining its sovereignty, but...

Outstanding. The acting truly exceptional. It truly is sad. Knife crime destroys everyone around it. The victim, the victims families, friends. But also the perpetrator, their family. It should be shown in schools. I understand completely that girls need to have the same opportunities as...

The amount of Civil Service work that must have gone into that visit. War gaming, murder boards, briefing on every conceivable question and scenario. It would have been full of nervous anticipation. Im sure that Starmer, Lammy, Mandelson all had a huge sigh of relief, but Number 10 and Foreign...

The missiles are bought from US - same production line as theirs. Maintained by US. The Warheads though are designed and manufactured at the Atomic Weapons Establishment in Aldermaston.

I live opposite Leeds training ground and can categorically say no line existed. Bielsa was a lovely chap, always willing to talk to local people, sitting in costa coffee with his notes on the opposition. I nearly ran him down when he walked infront of my car. I would have had to go into...

I went to Spring Valley Hospital, Las Vegas. To be honest I thought the level of care was good. Although I did wonder what looked like coat hooks were behind seating areas - until I released they were to hold morphine drips I had tremendous pain and felt terribly ill on the Tuesday morning. At...

And £3.7bn of unnecessary expenditure is still a lot of money

Here is pound to Euro. See a pattern here?

I dont work for DWP, but I think JSA is time limited to 26 weeks I doubt you can claim retrospectively, but worth a try. Nothing ventured, nothing gained Unsure why you have been deducted £700 for something you havent claimed - besides JSA is not means tested.

Putin and his cronies all say that Russia will only use nuclear weapons if the existence of Russia is under threat. Would this also include territories that Russia has taken, using sham referendums to bring those territories as Russia itself. So, if Ukraine tries to take those territories...
