    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    Along the lines of "Leavitt OUT"??

    Things that annoy you

    I remember a Jack Dee joke on those lines from a few years ago (when comedy was funny) ... At the till, with a full trolley, i saw the woman behind me with a basket with three items in. I asked her if that's all she had, and she said "Yes". I said "Well you might as well piss off and find...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    With 4 councils to finally declare, Labour have lost two-thirds of their councillors (down by 168 to 82). They haven't lost any because they lost most of them in 2021. They lost Durham to NOC in 2021, but were still by far the biggest group. They are now down to 4 councillors.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Labour losing seats hand over fist to Reform almost as much as the Tories are in county councils. Lost 30 seats in Durham, FFS! Durham, Derbyshire and Staffs all now Reform. There are going to be some bloody grim times ahead - not simply because their politics are diametrically opposed to...

    Key point being "good bar staff". A rarity these days. Can't pull a decent pint, EPoS tills mean they don't need to know the price of anything, so can't add two drinks up in their head, and give them a tenner for two drinks costing £7.24 and they can't work out for themselves what the change...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Tories have won the pointless additional layer of local government known as the mayors in Cambs/Peterborough (don't know why they need to distinguish, as although P'boro is a unitary authority, it's IN F*CKING CAMBRIDGESHIRE). Won from Labour who finished third behind Reform. F*cking inbred Tory...

    Point taken, but surely the size of the Labour landslide last July is an indication that people wanted a Labour government.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    The Conservatives won more council seats and control of councils than ever before in 2021, even after 11 years in power. The degree of swing away from a government in a by-election 10 months into a new parliament is, i understand, unprecedented. Reform campaigned on a "Stop the Boats" agenda...

    Things that annoy you

    Absolute pet hate of mine! Traffic light management is now affected by a hideous combination complete lack of understanding of risk by the highway authority and sheer laziness by the contractors doing the work, in not clearing the lights away at the end of the day.

    Israel - Palestinian Conflict

    Those will be the settlers who have been in contravention of UN Security Council resolutions since 1967 and the Geneva Convention, will they? Not for me, i'm afraid.

    Brad Collins Poll

    By comparison, if Bristol City ever release Max O'Leary, we should splash the cash. Watch his performance against Leeds last night. Not at fault for any of the 4 goals they conceded. It would have been 10-0 if not for him. Masterclass!

    Brad Collins Poll

    No doubt about it - i was right behind that ball in, and a sack of shit lying on the ground would have stopped it. Collins's one strength is the flamboyant tip over the bar. Other key aspects of a keeper's game are sadly lacking ... 1. His defence of his near post is non-existent 2. He lets...

    TBF i thought Binks could have done a lot better than kicking it into his own net. Not all down to Collins and he had played well up to that point.

    Surely he wouldn't be on the bench either if that were the case.

    Eagles traded their 31st pick in the 1st round with KC at 32 plus a 5th round pick. I kinda get it now - but the points tally is useful, thanks!! I just watched Jihaad Campbell's 2024 highlights, and MAN, is he fast off the edge or from the back! QBs and RBs are gonna have to be on their game...

    I wonder what the Dept of Homeland Security will do when they hear 67,000 Philadelphians screaming "Jihaad" when their new linebacker Jihaad Campbell puts in a sack on Mahomes! Good pick for the Eagles, and will probably be popular being a Jersey boy! Can anyone explain to me in simpleton's...
