I agree on the importance of firming up relations with Zelenskyy :wink:

Generalisation and objectively not the case with a lot of voters. People voted for Brexit despite not having first clue what it meant, other than sticking two fingers up to the Establishment. People voted for Boris because they thought he had charisma and he said “get Brexit done” (not a...

The whole thing is a confidence trick based on weasel words. There was the stuff a couple of weeks ago about “cutting wasted spending” which turned out to be a blanket 5% budget cut. The problem with ripping apart Reform’s economic plans is that the other parties are no better in that regard...

Wait until he finds out which crimes I want to deport people for :wink:

Why can’t we? We’re stripping every one of their rights, remember?

Why would you want to treat a British rapist differently to a foreign one? Surely, you also need to change the law so we can deport all rapists regardless of which country they were born in? I mean, I'm assuming it's the rape you're taking issue with here, not where they come from...

The Cheese-brained Wotsit speaks: I’d class that as a self-own and a succinct summary of the entire f***ing problem he’s created.

Awful incident, I hope anyone injured isn’t too seriously hurt and can make a full recovery.

For some mystifying reason, Labour has blocked an amendment to its housing bill that would require new builds to incorporate a swift brick. There’s a petition linked from this article if anyone is interested in signing it...

Including the heir to the Belgian throne apparently.

“And don’t call me Shirley”

The people moaning about this test being a waste of time presumably switched off and missed Bennett’s century. Personally think this is good for the game. More tests against the strongest teams (and England, arf) will help Zimbabwe improve and, in time, get somewhere closer to the team they...

Well, he hasn’t crashed a stock market for over a month, we’ve had a good run.

Anti-immigration people think he’s pro, while pro-immigration people think he’s anti. There’ll be some confirmation bias at play here but it essentially shows that he’s failing to please everybody all of the time, which probably means he’s doing a reasonable job of sticking to the middle ground.

“Another batsman” - poor Zak Crawley, will nobody (but Rob Key) love him? When I were a lad, it happened every third Ashes test.

What period are you referring to? There has almost always been weaker nations in test cricket. The last England team in Australia springs to mind.

This is a big deal for Germany given their history. Merz certainly isn’t hanging about. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/may/22/germany-anti-russian-defence-nato-lithuania-friedrich-merz

Ah, you’re referring the right to citizenship as defined in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and protected by international human rights law? Yeah, it’s exactly the same. The same laws affording this highly unpleasant man due process have made a big difference to your life without you...

Government <> judicial system He’s being allowed due process under international human rights law and the latest appeal will be reheard because there’s a possibility the judge made an error. People switching their support to a racist party because of things like this are on a slippery slope...

Farage, quoted by the BBC last year, when asked about comments he made in 2014: By his own words, he admires a man who retains power by having his political opponents murdered. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c722pn07w99o
