    Are you dreaming of the good old days of 2025? The book of the year, including the definitive A-Z is out now in eco, woke hippy e-book form and in paperback for those who hate trees. Also read by a robot, if you can't be bothered to move your eyes.

    Maybe it's because I'm not a billionaire but I can't get my head around why someone with more than they could spend in 10 lifetimes tries so hard not to pay a single penny in tax. And it seems that the more they have, the harder they try.

    Tory MPs state that without outside earnings, we would not be able to encourage the best people into politics. If these are the best people, maybe we should take a chance and see what the second best look like.

    The thing is, C4 is not theirs to sell.

    God we're easily distracted. They don't even have to really try any more. The excess deaths, the hundreds of millions for kit that doesn't work, ripping up regulations to suit donors, the kleptocracy and nepotism. But look...a dinghy!

    Is it a bit odd, that a presenter is not allowed on the BBC due to perceived bias (anti-Tory), whereas the head of the BBC used to be deputy chairman of the Hammersmith and Fulham Conservative party and the Chairman of the BBC has donated more than £400,000 to the Tories?

    The joy among some on seeing the Mail turn on BJ and the assumption that this means he's toast rather implies that the PM of this country is selected by the press. Specifically, three off-shore, non-resident, tax avoiding newspaper billionaires. It's nothing to be happy about.

    Home Office latest: The government will extend as much assistance as necessary to those fleeing Ukraine, up to, but not including, actually helping.

    How is it that our PM looks more dishevelled than the leader of a country that's been under bombardment for two months?

    All that red tape they're promising to get rid of? It's pesky rules that stop banks ripping you off, or industry polluting your air or pouring raw sewage into your river, or food companies using carcinogenic ingredients banned elsewhere. Freedom!

    Are you the same Grant Shapps who, in May 2020 wrote to mayor Sadiq Khan and insisted on the reintroduction and expansion of the ULEZ in London as a condition of funding for public transport, or are you a completely different Grant Shapps?
    Labour will take this as a win, but hardworking people will lose because Sadiq Khan doesn't care about hitting drivers with unneeded costs Lets see what kind of Leader @Keir_Starmer is. Time to get off the fence & tell your Mayor to do the right thing and stop the ULEZ expansion

    A thin-skinned man-baby who's had his entire life handed to him on a salver like he won the lottery ten times on his first try, throws a lip-trembling wobbly you could see from space when he encounters a small bump in the road. What we've missed now he won't be our leader!

    Is this the bit in a horror film when you think they've killed the monster and everyone starts to relax, except there's another 15 minutes of the film left and it's not dead yet?
