Special relationship eh ? When oh when will Britain shed this delusion that we matter to the Americans ? We absolutely don't and it's time people and politicians in Britain got their heads around that and looked closer to home for relationships and partnerships that matter.

Bumped into the Private Eye podcast on YouTube for the first time where amongst other things, there was a fascinating discussion on defence procurement. If you ever wanted an argument against increasing defence spending, they've just made it. The sheer waste is incredible !

I've had an invite too 😂😂

Another crooks about to be outed ..... hopefully spectacularly so !!

Another Reform Councillor bites the dust !! This one's on Warwickshire County Council (my neck of the woods).

But could Tuchel have made the England players hold on to the ball and not gift posession to Argentina ? That was surely down to the players on the pitch and was ultimately the difference that cost us the game ......

I see Farrige runs a company called Thorn In The Side .......... Which quite funnily abbreviates as TITS. Rather appropriate I thought 😂😂😂

It's a massive game tonight but .......... Is it really bigger than either of the two Euro finals England were in not so long ago ? Win and Sundays game certainly will be. But I'd rather the BBC saved the hyperbole until then.

Such utter bollox ! Feel free to explain this however .......

In plain sight mate ..........

Thats fine and happy to be corrected - but it says here that half of benefit claimants have no work requirements as has been increasing hugely. I guess a fair bit of that is a move across from other benefits so isn't "real" ...... but it's still a big number.

Green Shoots ???

THESE are the people from whom we really need to protect our citizens - they rape and murder with impunity with NO comeback at all. Get them out now ....... !

Farage must know he's in trouble if he's got the Fail predicting his lot coming THIRD !! Hopefully the decline into oblivion will continue apace and people finally get to see what sort of charlatans these people are.

Ok fair enough - maybe the companies house filing is just for some other related company then

It's a bit late now !

Let's hope the NCA absolutely nail this crook. We need him behind bars.

Am I the only one who thinks this guy is an utter waste of space. No matter what the Septics do, he is so far up Trumps backside that only the soles of his shoes are visible. The US was never interested in ending conflict with Iran and lo and behold, were on the way back to all out war again

I

And this .......

Fingers crossed .....🤞🏽

I went there many years ago and was struck by how (from some angles at least), it looked a bit like a muffin 😂. The journey there took me to Iona too - the abbey there is gorgeous

Justice has been served. No phone call from 🍊 is going to overturn this 😂 Thank you Belgium.

You have to ask .... "so what ?" What happens if the reinstated player scores the winner against Belgium ? Either you're saying the competition lacks integrity, in which case why are you member teams playing in it ? Or else you're just shrugging your shoulders and walking on.

I'm no fan of the Iranian regime, but given this sort of turnout is nigh on impossible to manufacture, its clear widespread support for the Iranian revolution remains in Iran - which makes you wonder precisely what positive or constructive the US and Israel think they've achieved in the region ?

My suspicions confirmed .......

Stinks to high heaven ....... Trumps grubby fingers all over it. So much for fair play and sporting integrity. Fuck FIFA

Goodbye and good riddance - rubbish team duly dispatched - Paraguay utterly graceless in defeat. Contrast them with the absolute heroes from Cape Verde.

With a roll call of tossers like this penning columns for them, what can anyone expect ?
