Makes no sense that #KeirStarmer is ruling out an EU youth mobility scheme Especially when we already have 13 YMSs - eg with New Zealand, Australia, Canada, Japan, Iceland, and Uruguay - which bring economic, social & cultural benefits! #brexit

What’s a ‘new’ word that you fvcking hate? Mine is ‘staycation’. I’ve never known such a bollocky word in all my days. When we were kids we didn’t go abroad but we did go on holiday - up to the lakes, or to Devon or Cornwall or the Broads. It was a fvcking holiday. A. HOLIDAY.

I don’t want Frank Hester’s OBE taken he won’t give a toss about that. I want his privatised NHS contract that he should never have had, and which he has used to steal £540m from the NHS for his own profit. That is what he needs to lose, RT to get Hester out.

I read so many ‘reasons’ why kids don’t sing in parish church choirs now. Change in fashion, football, computer games, shopping etc. All make it sound inevitable, and absolves us of responsibility to make the effort to turn the tide. But it can be done. It IS being done.

Hitler didn’t operate the gas chambers himself. But he was responsible. Manson didn’t kill anyone himself. But he was responsible. Bin Laden didn’t fly the planes himself. But he was responsible. Trump didn’t storm the Capitol himself. But he was responsible. Justice matters.
