I am sitting next to a pool on a terrace in northern Spain. Twenty minutes ago, I ordered a plate of six croquettes (assorted flavours). Next to me is a woman who, naturally, didn’t want any.
You probably think you know where this is going, but no. I ate them all, in peace. No incursions, no comedically wobbling fork appearing in my peripheral vision. All mine.
Men: it is too early for complacency, and this is obviously not a bowl of chips. But we may have achieved the end of the beginning.
#SkyNews pointing out that Suella Braverman(Reform MP) was Home Secretary & Robert Jenrick(Reform MP) was an immigration minister when the North Belfast attacker was granted leave to remain.
The UK in 2026:
Work all month.
Get paid.
Feel relieved.
Pay rent.
Pay bills.
Do a food shop.
Fill the car up.
Back to being broke.
Repeat until retirement.
Apparently this is what success looks like now.
About to go on holiday and my neighbour asks me to bring back 800 cigarettes for him. Got back and gave them to him.
'How much do i owe you?'
'£600'
'Blimey, that's dear - where did you go?'
'Berwick'
At this point prices in The UK are just made up:
What do you mean a return train to London is £140?
How is a weekend away in England £600? I can go abroad for a week for that!
Why is a house that was £700 a month a few years ago now £1500 a month?
How is a full tank of fuel now costing more than £100?
Why is my car insurance going up every year on the same car with no claims?
How is 2 carrier bags of shopping costing me nearly £100?
We're honestly done aren't we.
Scotland doesn’t need posh indie Glasgow Uni boy bands making World Cup ‘anthems’.
Scotland needs a ‘bits n pieces’ type dance track with like 6 words in it to get the people going.
The Scottish yearn for a bouncy anthem that they can sing after 14 overpriced pints.
Get yer broccoli headed private school nonsense in the bin and give the people what they want !
City trader on @lbc says some banks are jittery at the thought of government tracking more to the left. 🙄
Well, they never complained when a Labour government were bailing them out after their own greed and mismanagement in 2008.
We were all Socialists then weren't we.
