    All the time I spend explaining to Irish people that the English are mostly a lovely bunch of eccentric but fair minded people. Down the drain...

    Apologies to Jezza, but the price of his house is proof that thereโ€™s something rotten in London. Nobody should have to be a millionaire to live in a post-war Lego gaff.
    Mr Corbyn lives in an expensive house in Islington . I guess if you tot up all his assets he is worth more than ยฃ1m. He is a hypocrite and is peddling a robin hood story and fooling people like you . There was poverty under Labour back in the days I was referring to .

    Everyone thinks that they would have stood up against the Nazis. History suggests many wouldnโ€™t. This kid who egged the anti-Islam politician in NZ is brave. I hope heโ€™s ok.

    Hello, itโ€™s me, a person in England who never talks about Northern Ireland, just logging on to say whatever is happening in NI right now completely aligns with the political point I warned you all about. Ps - I have never been to Northern Ireland

    Woke? Woke up the following morning and Maureen would have the fry on and Iโ€™d go at it again.
    Alcohol culture is woke. Boozing means participating in cultural rot. This is what the left wants. Liquor stores stayed open while gyms and churches shut down. Conservatives donโ€™t want to admit this. Couple drinks here and there fine. Otherwise - WOKE.
