The really sobering thing about the Rwandan deal that Priti Patel has announced is that whole point of it is that she and Johnson must believe it’s a huge vote winner with the British public. Which raises the question as to what kind of uncaring society we British have become.

Buried in today's Mail on Sunday polling showing comparisons between Johnson and Starmer, is this poll on EU membership! As the public, even the pro Brexit Mail readers, increasingly decide we made a mistake, it will be harder for this Brexit Government to maintain its poll lead.

Wonderful Tonight, what a filly, and what a credit to David Menuisier and all his staff. It’s so sad she’s missing her career defining target. She gave us so much hope through two difficult seasons. A shining light on the racecourse, she owes us nothing. We owe her everything.

I think we all now recognise that the only reason Boris switched from Remain to Brexit was because that was his only route to becoming Prime Minister, or “World Leader”. He seems fixated on the position and the title, AT ANY COST to you or I.

@MarinaPurkiss He literally said that London owes its success to the EU Single Market and that no PM should ever change it. The only reason Boris Johnson supported Brexit, was because he realised he could ride a wave of nationalism into Downing Street.

I also believe that if, 400 years ago, we were debating whether the world was flat or round, the BBC would have to have one scientist for each side giving facts to prove both cases, despite the overwhelming evidence. It was the same with the Brexit referendum, hence where we are!

I always joke that the BBC definition of balance is presenting the pros & cons of drinking arsenic as equal. But here's Dan Hodges saying that even though Brexit has damaged the economy, the BBC should have disproportionately favoured the minority of economists who got it wrong.

Watching “A Spy Amongst Friends”. I watched (and read) several works on this subject, and the 2 best by far are the original BBC TV series of Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy with Alec Guinness as George Smiley and an even more ancient docudrama of the whole story, which was also great!

Why do the Government keep taking us for fools? We all know there is no shortage of vegetables in the rest of Europe, just in the U.K. We all know the reason why. Just admit it. We know we voted 52 48 for it, and we know we’re stuck with it, for the time being. It is what it is!

Does anyone who reads the Daily Mail see it as anything other than one man’s own perverted personal views and a vicious propaganda vehicle? Sadly yes, and it continues to destroy the fabric of the nation.

Media corruption on one front page … Daily Mail whose Editor Johnson wanted to run OFCOM and to whom he promised a peerage doesn’t bother with Johnson scandal but instead carries Johnson article suggesting other countries do something he opposed when he was PM.

I wouldn’t blame the referee. He wasn’t great, but decisions he got wrong were 50 50 calls. He awarded us 2 penalties, and we missed one with a bad strike. They scored 2 excellent goals in open play. I predicted 2 1, but could go either way, and that’s exactly what happened. Pity

In 2016 the British people voted to leave the EU, and 3 years ago we delivered on that historic vote. Since then, we’ve made huge strides in harnessing these Brexit freedoms.

What a surprise! 127 European drivers ONLY have applied to come to work here, despite the fact that the Brexit Government will ALLOW them to stay here for 5 months. I warned about the Government’s arrogance at the time. The huge attitudinal stance is a embarrassment to us all!

Well, I’m currently watching the CBS Sixty Minutes interview with Harry. We are now half way through at 7.55 pm US East Coast time. He is coming over really well. A different perspective on the rather tragic situation. There is a great deal of truth in this post below.

At the heart of the rift in the royal family is the British press, not least the Daily Mail. Without it we wouldn’t be discussing Harry and Meghan, Brexit wouldn’t have happened and Johnson wouldn’t have won in 2019. May the British tabloids get the demise they deserve. Karma.

So this disastrous Tory/Brexit government that have screwed up everything they have touched (apart from maybe the Covid vaccination rollout) and will leave the country bankrupt, want to take over regulation of the one great success story we have, our football. Heaven help us!

Unbelievably depressing to read in The Daily Mail that the majority of Brits support the disgusting trafficking of refugees to Rwanda, but it’s easy to see how this can happen with propaganda machines like The Mail. I assume Nazi Germany in the thirties had a similar newspaper?

Crisis of confidence in the police, empty supermarket shelves, queues at petrol stations, pigs being destroyed, vegetables rotting, rising COVID cases, the tragic scenes in Afghanistan, accusations of corruption, cash for peerages. Why are the Government still ahead in the polls?
