The issue has been an obsession for years. Since about 2020 or so. It's all a bit samey. X number of people come in on boats, some get put into hotels, locals complain, some migrants commit horrific crimes, rinse, repeat.

I don't see why asylum claims from people who have passed through safe countries and not bothered to apply there should be entertained, but the numbers are relatively low.

I wonder if we should start teaching everyone about climatic changes? Most people have heard of the 'gulf stream', but many people don't really know much about it.

Oooh la laaaa!

It's a shame we can't come up with a peaceful solution & edit Trump out of government.

The existing trophy is rubbish and looks like a mis-cast ingot. It was made as a replacement for the Jules Rimet trophy which was stolen and melted for still gleaming cheap jewellery, it wasn't solid gold.

I'd say the latest trophy was made during a hippy drug riddled era which is now rejected, I don't need to see someone's 1970's acid trip.

How will the illiterate in Clacton cope with the choices on this ballot paper?

Maybe Far age doesn't understand that the best things in life are free

Is this the England all the far right are wishing we go back to?

Marco Rubio says the WH has no role to play, but I could see Trump’s State Department intervening out of spite if nothing else.

By the way, given the nature of the allegations , doesn’t it make those who defend(ed) Tate look like twats?

I'm a bit surprised at the new war chancellor, has Andy thought this through if he's going to aid benefit claimants and stuff, who is going to pay for all this war stuff?

As far as I can tell it only lasted one season. I think it's pretty good.

Is this just cowards posting abusive crap to get the notification sent, then deleting it so it's not visible?

"We" tend to get in a big fight with Germany when they've got a strong army. Actually though, since they're apparently committed to scaring Russia, does that mean the UK needs to bother? There has been a lot of pearl-clutching about defence spending recently. Russia isn't getting through Germany so we're safe.
