    We are capable of winning all 5. We belong in this league and have the players and manager to do so. Time to see if they can channel the quality and be decisive in games.

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    My biggest issue with his leadership at the moment is that I feel he doesn’t have the ideas for the radical approach that will be needed in a post Cov-ID world. I saw John McDonnell on Sky this morning talking about how UBI isn’t so much of a leap from where we’ve been with furlough. McDonnell...

    Recommend a beer

    Should be getting the latest Beer 52 in the next couple of days, usually some good ones in there... as long as they lay off the gooseberry and passion fruit infused beers!

    Old Arcade and PC Games

    I’ve played Super Mario Deluxe on the Switch and it just doesn’t have the same feel as something like Super Mario world on the SNES... it actually feels inferior.

    It’s funny isn’t it - my Mum is a staunch Tory and has the same relationship with the Daily Mail as a Jehovah Witness does with its literal interpretation of the Bible. Thinks the EU have never supported the UK despite her living in Cornwall and in a community that was dependent on EU grants to...

    Looking at Labour’s idea from this week of opposing a coroporation tax rise (which even Tory voters support) suggests they are not exactly reading the room either. Before we even get onto their hard on for nukes in post Cov-ID world. Well just end a future pandemic by dropping a bomb on it.

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    2 issues I feel. 1. party membership demographic does not equal voting demographic especially for Labour 2. Post-industrial towns left to go into decline as they are ignored by the ‘south’ across successive governments, couple with a carefully constructed narrative that their woes are down to...

    If you were a solicitor specialising in conveyancing and getting a fixed 2K+ a time for a sale and purchase, you’d want to be smashing them out all over the place. I know they are hamstrung by the slowness of the searches process which seems to be stuck in the 19th Century, but they could then...

    Me too - the whole system is a fucking joke. I’ve never seen anything so backwards and out of date.

    Good to see that England have done their usual approach of not reading the room when it comes to their bowling set up.

    Most schools will take the first week to test upon return. It’s only going to be 2 weeks of learning before Easter.
