Was that another great ball from Eccles?

Well that’s a shite start.

No. It’s what I said.

I am prepared to wager (small, obviously) that Bezos and Musk have more in loose change lying around than the average millionaire pensioner. IIRC in the US you need an income of $1million to be classed as a millionaire.

I thought Labour was the party of the working class. Most pensioners fall in to that category. The jobless by definition aren’t working people, so the Labour Party should say “fuck you” as they are saying to pensioners wrt winter fuel allowance.

There’s no guarantee that Hezbollah’s reprisals to Israels reprisals will be on Israeli soil. I can’t grasp the cheek of Netanyahu claiming the the UK has undermined Israel with the cancellation of arms sales licences or his claims that pending International Court arrest warrants are “preposterous”.

We brought two reinforcements on as subs.
