Michael Clarke: When people in the States say, "Oh, look how corrupt Ukraine is," I’d say, "First of all, pal, I think Ukraine, objectively, is less corrupt than United States is these days."
You can construct sensible argument, which says: "Ukrainians talk about corruption because it bothers them. You guys have stopped talking about it because it doesn’t bother you anymore. You’ve normalized it."
I think there’s sensible argument to say that Ukraine is less corrupt than the United States.
I am deeply appalled and angry to see “Firework” used on the @WhiteHouse TikTok account as a backing track for video footage of military strikes. I did not approve this, I was not asked, and I absolutely do not condone it.
I wrote this song to be an anthem of hope, healing, and inner strength for people going through their darkest personal moments. To see a message of self-worth and upliftment weaponized to soundtrack destruction and violence is a complete violation of everything my song stands for.
My music is for bringing people together, not celebrating warfare.
Film of the day - Went the Day Well? (1942) Excellent war drama from a story by Graham Geeene starring Leslie Banks, Valerie Taylor, Basil Sydney, David Farrar, Harry Fowler, Elizabeth Allan and Thora Hird @TalkingPicsTV 1.30pm this afternoon. One of the best British films ever.
FUN FACT: During WW2, four brothers from the same Jewish family signed up to fight against the Nazi's. One one of the four brothers survived. His grandson is the President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelenskyy. 🇺🇦
A 94 year old man from Clacton has called Farage Nigel Mirage “because he’s never here” 😂 Brilliant! Let’s get it trending, wind him up even more. #NigelMirage
I’m absolutely furious that I can afford a car, the associated MOT, Tax, Insurance and fuel so I won’t benefit from the £2 bus fair.
Thanks a lot Andy Burnham
Who remembers when Martin Bell successfully stood as an MP to rid us of Neil Hamilton and the sleaze that surrounded him?
Let’s hope that, 30 years later, Count Binface can rid us of Nigel Farage and the far worse sleaze he’s up to his eyeballs in.
bus capped at £2 - doesnt matter we drive
£40 off energy bills - not enough
20% off for pubs - could be more
