@ukewednesdays We are organizing a get together for ukulele clubs in the Paris area and would love for you to join us. On Saturday the 21st of June, the whole country celebrates music and musicians come out to play.
John Oliver, "The Conservatives have had 5 different prime ministers over the past 14 years.. It's worth briefly revisiting all of them"
1⃣"David Cameron.. Austerity.. Brexit"
2⃣"Theresa May.. More austerity, two child cap"
3⃣"Boris Johnson.. His time in office was a shambles.. Britain left the EU on the same day of the first case of the corona virus was announced.. His handling of covid was an unmitigated disaster"
"For the record there is only one actual f*ckpig in Downing Street.. David Cameron.. As a student at Oxford he once put his d*ck in a dead pig's mouth"
4⃣"Liz Truss who had the shortest tenure of any British prime minister in history.. Her budget full of tax cuts for the rich which caused a mini economic crisis"
5⃣"Sunak the wet.. A man who literally does not have the sense to get in from the rain"
"Brexit created red tape that has grown exponentially.. Trading goods with the EU is now so onerous that many businesses have chosen to relocate into mainland Europe which is not good news for the UK"
"Brexit is estimated to be costing the economy about £100 billion a year"
"While Brexit makes the news, austerity is the legacy of Cameron and his successors because it has in so many ways obliterated public services"
"Take the NHS, years of under investment have left it gutted and understaffed.. Wait lists for NHS treatment have exploded.. More than 7.5 million waiting for non emergency treatment, that's over 2.5 million when the Conservatives came in in 2010"
J'ai fait pas mal d'émissions radio et télé sur l'Europe en France pendant 30 ans. Depuis 10 ans il n'y a plus grand chose
Si je puis me permettre, ce qui s'est passé hier est, aussi, la faute des médias qui, contrairement à d'autres pays, boudent notre merveilleux continent
Dans la série, la meilleure défense c'est l'attaque, je vous présente les compagnies privées de traitement des eaux en grande Bretagne qui, traînées devant les tribunaux, remettent en cause le droit de se baigner. Fallait oser.

We have pro Brexit newspaper in France : an article written by a consultant 🤡 (clownsultant ?), it basically says Brexit is a " missed opportunity ".
Le Figaro - à lire : «Le Brexit n’est pas un naufrage, mais une opportunité manquée pour le Royaume-Uni» https://t.co/VWXvmkINhn
@supertanskiii@frankieobrienn Oh la la ! He just switched his account to protected... Not a great evening for
Poor Frankie
Time to "wobble your head" and choose a more stable career path.
@supertanskiii Bonjour, je vous admire pour votre engagement, votre verve à dénoncer la corruption et le fascisme d'état au Royaume uni actuellement. J'y vais un peu fort ? Maybe.
Comme on dit chez nous : vous n'avez pas votre langue dans votre poche. Requinquez vous loin des réseaux sociaux !
The Auld Triangle, my favourite Dublin folk song. I first learned it from Shane Mac Gowan's incredibly powerful and raw version on The Pogues 1984 album Red Roses. Shane had learned this song from his hero, Irish poet Brendan Behan. Rest in Peace Shane you will be dearly missed
