Strong words from President Macron: "Honesty compels me to note that there are men in our Europe with 30 to 40 Mass Effect playthroughs. Up to four thousand hours of gameplay! Can the prosperity and liberty of France be secured with such men? I am sure that the answer is no."

It's disturbing that grooming gangs pick up their victims outside schools in cars, and drive them to kebab shops to be gang raped by dozens of men. That's why Labour will bring in tough new laws to ensure the yellow zig zag lines are respected and school entrances are kept clear

It is disturbing that grooming gangs are using vapes to exploit minors. Labour will introduce tough new laws to stop gangs exploiting children and come down hard on anyone marketing vapes to under-18s.

There's been far to much attention paid to knife crime and minicab rape gangs, but no one until now has tried to wake Britons up about the lurking dangers of hats and impractical push chairs.

It's absolutely insane that people believe that London was safer when people wore hats and had impractical push chairs. Those old colour films of London are a gateway drug to rank stupidity.

I think Starmer will surprise many Tories. I think net migration will be lower, he’ll be far more punitive w/ undocumented migrants than Priti Patel, he’ll lean into culture wars, be hard on EU, & there’ll be new oil & gas exploration in North Sea. He’s a social conservative!

This is Spain. I’m trying to imagine the fury if it was Blackpool and the flags were German. Over five million British migrants live worldwide, and I’m one of them. Most of us are ashamed of this. Go home if that’s where you’d rather be… “England til I die” right?

The person leading the country should have a hairdresser, stylist, chauffeur (or better yet a pilot), chef, butler and doctor paid by the state. Not really efficient to have them wandering round Tesco's at three in the morning trying to find cough medicine.

Thinking that puberty blockers can "pause" sexual development and that you can just start it up again at age 16 is some incredible high modernist stuff.
