When you look at that you begin to understand how the Tories got the majority they did.
The Fear
A Wise Man (once sat next to him)
Its little wonder the world is in the state its in. You look at our lot, then Biden who I think is just to old, and because I am old I know the mind and body dont work like it should do. Then you have that twat Macron who I really hope to see gone next year just as long as he is not replaced by Marine Le Pen. You have Putin who has somehow managed to secure the job for life and its speculated he is now the wealthiest person on the planet. Then you look at all the trouble spots around the world where no one is actually in charge. The planet is in crisis yet so little is being done to actually tackle the global warming. I could go on but why bother, I am in my twilight years and wont be around long enough to see the Politicians who seem unable to deal with it completely cock it up.
I know the feeling mate.
I worry for my kids, but the way politics is structered there is very little you can do about it.

It's an absolute crime and embarrassment that they had to do that to get what they deserved. Shocking. Absolutely shocking.

It's the way forward as a means of control and overview BUT you make them negotiate for it, you don't hand on a plate, pull your pants down and bend over.
What fucking reparations anyway, it was the Afgans who bolted (whether understandably or not given some of the claims).

Yes, the timing is always incredible on some of these isn't it.

Burgon. The Yorkshire Einstein. A handy reminder to the rest of Labour to never let Corbyn's mates anywhere near the front bench ever again.

Businesses have been told to prioritise hiring UK-based workers rather than relying on labour from abroad to fix a shortage of lorry drivers.
Business Secretary Kwasi Kwarteng rejected calls from firms to loosen immigration rules, saying it would be a "short-term temporary solution".
But Logistics UK says it can take nine months for new drivers to qualify and there is a backlog of driving tests.
