    From memory these were people not wanting UK to bomb Isis/isil targets in Syria after they had "invaded" - nothing to do with the civil war. There were a miniscule number of protests and protesters compared to anything we've seen recently.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    No-one cared or protested when civilians were being bombed, gassed and other chemical warfare during Assad's time so not really a surprise anyone cares now. As to the speed and willingness of govts to accept the new regime (despite their background) well we'll see how well that pans out. After...

    they didn't just spray paint they caused over 7 million pounds worth of damage to the engines etc with crowbars. The fact they were military aircraft elevates it to a potential act of terrorism.

    silly game to play. There'll be a million clips out there of Labour ministers/mps saying daft things that can be spun. Is there going to be 3/4 years of misleading tiktoks etc leading into the next election.

    I do like that the World Heavyweight champion is a proper boxer not some one punch specialist like wilder was. Dubois picks up a paycheck but was never going to win.

    Killing themselves. Despite what ECB say they've basically ceded control of English cricket to these new Hundred shareholders. These new shareholders are going to have the ECB by the balls when plans for the future are made in 27/28. Rugby still suffering (and going to suffer) by selling off...

    cricket 2025

    equally annoying (from the games i've seen) it's not as if there has been any noticeable drop in standards/quality of cricket. Some of the names maybe be missing which doesn't help sell tickets but the product is still decent.

    Sycamore Gap

    Read the criminal damage was put at around 600k. It was a ridiculous thing to do but 4 years is too much. But sets an interesting precedent for these Palestinian Action "vandals" where the damage was estimated over 7 million pounds

    It's 2 out of Derby, Leicester, Northants & Gloucester - probably the first 2. But which ever 2 remain are still going to be firmly tied to the bottom of the pyramid due to finances.

    "smash the gangs" has to be one of the most stupid ideas - and he should know he was DPP. Has smashed the gangs done anything to control drug trafficking? UK police crime solving is weak anyway plus limited access to Europol records makes it even more difficult. Smash a gang and another one...

    Don't be so sensitive. Make your points and stand by them. You made 5 or 6 points about housing issue - only one of which was about population/immigration. All the points contribute to the housing problems one got latched onto.
