Just caught up with this, outstanding stuff.

Why are beef prices so high in America? Illegal immigrants scurrying, climbing, swimming across the border are bringing in their diseased cattle, of course. And he says this with a straight face. Same over here, illegal migrants crossing the channel with small goats. I think that's what I've heard ...

You'd also think the BBC wouldn't intentionally doctor news content, need sanctioning by OFCOM, or need to make over 100 corrections annually of its BBC Arabic content due to bias. And that's before we get into the internal issues of poor handling of anti-Semitism, bullying and sexual misconduct. T...

Well its not the language barrier, so perhaps he's just not very good

Some drunk/ stoned bloke banging on our front door at about 11 last night, we were in bed watching family guy, and an episode I hadn't seen before. .

It'd be a crime if an uninsured driver hit a car with a young family in it and hurt them badly. i think th...

........ Although I sense another part of this is him helping his media owning billionaire buddies by undermining the BBC. No doubt Foreign Funded Farage would be delighted if Trump skinted the Beeb and it ceased to exist. This is what I'm thinking too. Farage may well be egging him on. What a pity...

It's not my intention to get political here and apologise in advance if it's taken as such I don't usually watch Children In Need but I did watch most of it last night. The reason I did include the Trump thing but mainly as a reminder that people are generally decent, in some cases, much more than ...

He's going to sue the bbc then. Ok, but a right to defend, and I reckon a few King's Counsel will love to have their day defending a not perfect by any means, but even so , an established British entity. I heard his economy is not doing so well, so he's picked on Britain. He could have just accepte...

Or I him

Bumping into a lad I used to work with . Saw him in the chemists waiting for the flu jab. I'd not seen him for donkeys years.
Yesterday just a few weeks later, bumped into him again, in another town.

Cheered me right up.
