Which of course will serve to demonstrate what a thoroughly nasty country the UK has become under the influence of UKIP and the Brexit mob over the past 3 years. I'm more ashamed by the day.
So my son’s gf is now trying to sort out the forms for her 97 year old grandmother to apply for settled status. She’s only been here for 70 years......

I've had a look at my old passports, pre-EU, gathering dust in my filing system. No matter which way I look at them, they are black. Where did Blue come from in people's memories?!

@Driver475
Your political leaning has nothing to do with whether you find this attractive. I’m one of your woke lefties, I don’t find this remotely attractive. But what I do recognise is it’s none of my business how someone chooses to portray themselves. Each to their own
This still makes no sense.

Hello Jeremy. Remember in 2016 when 37% of the electorate decided they didn't want 100% of the population to be part of the EU any more?
So from 31st January 2020, the UK is a THIRD COUNTRY and is subject to standard EU travel rules.
Which part of that don't you get?
So I need someone to explain this to me slowly and clearly. If we don’t have a cure, an antibody test or a preventative vaccine, and we lift the lockdown, how are we going to avoid going back to where we were in mid-March and start all over again?

Of course we have, hence our optouts. Of course it has reduced in the last 2 years - thats AFTER the vote in case you hadn't noticed....and the UKIP MEPs have done untold damage to our reputation for the past few years
Well done

This quarantine rule upsetting the tourist industry is puzzling me. There are no hotels, guest houses, B&B open. No bars, restaurants, pubs open. No visitor attractions open. So exactly why are any tourists expected to come here? Euthanasia?

As I’m semi retired I have time available. I’m thinking of inviting Tory and BxP (god help me) candidates into my house if they come knocking. And keeping them there for,several hours asking questions. That’ll stop them canvassing. Not sure I’ll be sane after

In what world should she not have had children?

Nicely racist post.
I have many London friends & family of different races and religions including plenty of white British people of whom you would approve.
They are very happy with the mayor and his work for a cleaner, safer London.
Wow. Tory MP William Wragg is angry.
He’s been ordered to vote against his wishes in the fracking debate.
If he voted freely - he’d lose not just the Tory whip… but all his positions.
But most importantly, he wants to stay a Tory to oust Truss. 🔥

Andrea Jenkyns... Jonathan Gullis - neither necessarily senior but both loud and revolting. Expect to see them signing up for Reform when the can't get a job in the real world
@campbellclaret
Well there are around 1,000,000 unfilled places in the state sector so theyre’s plenty of space for them, and then they can afford to stop working 3 jobs and spend a bit of time with the children they profess to love so much
So Health Minister Dorrries feels ill on Friday but still holds a surgery on Saturday seeing 50 people..... top work and what a great example...... demonstrating once again she certainly isn’t the sharpest knife in any drawer
Good job I was lying down when heard this on

Teensy exaggeration on the numbers there a Terry mate. And millions of us don’t mind helping people fleeing a war where bombs made by the U.K. are being used against them.
My timeline is full of people shouting about the LD betrayal of the NHS by not voting for a Labour amendment to the Queens Speech last night. I was shocked. Then I asked around and did some reading. Fact checking. I understand it was a Regret Motion. 1/3
@snb19692
He blocked me for sharing on twitter his publicly recorded BBC interview where he explains he broke lockdown, and anyone would have done the same (note - millions didn't).
How do people reconcile themselves to following FBPE people who do support rejoin but whose timeline is full of “Labour are the same as Tories” and “I won’t vote Labour because of Starmer”? It’s troubling me - do I unfollow, mute, ignore?

Try telling that to the man earning 25k whilst his wife is at home with 2 children and can't go back to work because childcare would cost more than she could earn. Oh, and they don't the luxury of a £2k a month mortgage..... I don't think you're very in touch with the real world

He’s been as honest with you as he was with the 17.4 million he conned in 2016. A leopard doesn’t change its spots. You’ve been well and truly hustled.

So you have children. Then your partner is killed whilst riding his bike by a careless motorist. You cannot work as you have 2 children under 4 who need care and fees would wipe out your wages. Then what?
If the tabloids bothered to report the

You’ve not been paying attention have you?
a) the Sue Gray report didn’t bring Johnson down, Pinchergate and his lies did

c) this has all been discussed ad nausea on Twitter.

It’s undeniable however that many of those who voted Brexit actually had no idea what the EU was doing for their community and are only now finding out as the funding for many projects has dried up - Cornwall, for instance, and the fishing industry.

@Peston
Men? No women? And since when was anyone in ICU conscious, sitting up and chatting with nurses as he claims to have been. I believe he had Covid, I never believed he was ill enough to be anywhere near ICU. Hospital CEO covering his backside just in case.
@JonesCitizen
@PeterStefanovi2
Not defending him, but being worth £140m doesn’t mean he has £140m in the bank to hand. Tied up in property & long term investments which he can’t access. But he probabaly could do more.
I'd just like to point out that we have no Christmas decorations up yet, nor do we intend to have any for at least another 3 weeks. And I don't possess Xmas sox or jumpers. Anyone else in my club?

As a recently retired Chair of Governors, in a school with a sizeable non-white cohort, if this had happened on my watch I can’t even begin to imagine the fallout. Equally I know the Principal would never have allowed it. So what was the school leadership thinking here?
Apparently you aren’t allowed to refer to the track record of someone who is seriously ill because it’s unfeeling. Nor suggest that his govt isn’t doing a fabulous job. Have people lost their marbles? It’s not wanting him to die FFS. It’s being honest.

Accounts for 21 not yet due (9 months after year end is deadline I beleive).
What is odd is the significant control by a Luxembourg based business - screams tax dodge - and 2/3 directors overseas.
If someone gives you £200, it’s a gift.
If they give you £200 and ask for a £40 payment once a year for 5 years, it’s called a loan.
Not a discount.

correctly it goes like this. There are 100 nurses working at my local hospital. 20 of them submit their resignation. I persuade 10 of them to withdraw their resignation. I now have 90 nurses. That is more nurses than I started with.

I’ve always wondered about the IQ of the average MP and assumed it was higher than average. However, the number who have only just grasped that the reason Remainers would like a referendum is because they want to Remain is quite startling and would seem to suggest I was wrong.
@JamieKay22
He doesn’t get irony does he? Of course, it is also the surgery’s prerogative as to whom they have on their patient list, so I hope the next letter he gets from them is a polite “we regret we have removed you from our patient list; please go elsewhere for future NHS treatment”
I’m astonished at the number of
