“You boy! Get me £5000, I’ve been locked up by bad people.”

I am puzzled

Some days ago I saw a part of a very recent Trump
speech, when he rambled on about Cary Grant in a swimsuit

Then I saw him wittering on about Gettysburg, without uttering a coherent thought

Why are the media not discussing he fact that he has completely lost it ?

What an awful world we’ve managed to make it. To live in peace seems utterly beyond us. So dreadfully sad.

We're told pensions are 'unsustainable', the Post Office is 'unsustainable' and now that the NHS is 'unsustainable'. They were all entirely sustainable before the private sector starting looting the public sector.

I'm so f*cking sick of this man (((Dan Hodges))). I have no affiliation to any political party but his constant droning on and on and on about Angela Rayner 🌹 is not normal. He has fixated on her, I genuinely think there is something wrong with the man. Maybe it's just me.

Ian Hislop, 'Angela Rayner may have fiddled up to £1,500 on her council tax. Says a book published by Lord Ashcroft who avoided £112,000,000 when he was a non-dom' #HIGNFY

If this had been a police officer a teacher or anyone in a position of authority they would have got the sack but because he's a Tory MP it seems the other Tory MP's feel sorry for him apparently it could happen to anyone! 🥴This country couldn't get closer to gutter politics!

'I was standing at the urinal checking the news when my hand slipped, turned my camera on and took a photo of my privates. In my shock I dropped the phone and when it landed it sent the photo and all my contacts to the KGB.'

NEW: More National Trust hysteria, this time surrounding the 'virtue signalling betrayal' of their logo

Dear councils, 97% of meadows are gone. So please, this year, when the wildflowers return to the verges and our public spaces, don't poison them or over-mow them. Let them grow as a lifeline for insects like bees, butterflies and hoverflies 🐝

Yesterday the Daily Mail claimed National Trust has 'secretly' stopped using butter in its scones in a 'virtue-signalling betrayal' of heritage. It now transpires the very same Daily Mail glowingly published our scone recipe in 2018 MADE WITH MARGARINE!!!

The water companies were privatised with zero debt and granted a monopoly to sell the only product that nobody can go without. And still screwed up.

Thames Water comes up with cheapest way to clean the river.

“I don’t suppose you have a copy of ‘Knighthood’s made easy’ by Rishi Sunak?
You do? That’s wonderful. How much is it? A minimum £3 million donation. Oh! I’ll have to leave it then”.

If you want to know how power works in the UK contrast the press interest in (1) the £1,500 of capital gains tax Angela Rayner is said to have evaded with (2) the tens of millions Lord Ashcroft denies having evaded. 🧵

And now her husband is given a knighthood.

This government has no shame and is tone deaf and has a total disregard to the general public.
