    [News] Nigel Farage and Reform

    "So Nige, mate. Welcome. Can I start by asking what makes you a 'man of the people'? Is it your expensive private education at Dulwich College? Your career as a commodities trader in the City? Your personal fortune of £ millions? Your recent account with Coutts, the bank used by the Royal...

    [Football] What is the best (and worst) line in football commentary you have ever witnessed?

    When we were playing Leicester a few years ago, I thought we were totally dominating the game, because the commentator kept saying excitedly "It's all Brighton" - until I realise he was referring to another attacking run by the Leicester player Marc Albrighton :facepalm:

    [Albion] Astrid, u ok hun x

    I made the mistake at looking at her Facebook pages (she has more than one) to see who she is. Describes herself as an 'Influencer' (probably the most useless 'job' ever), and virtually every post is a photo or video-clip of her pouting or prancing in a thong or low-cut top, often stood in...

    [Politics] Labour Party meltdown incoming.......

    Thing is, when Labour screw-up, the Party's supporters will quite rightly give them a bollocking. But when Tories screw-up, their supporters repeatedly defend and make excuses for them. In 1997, I liked Tony Blair, but now despise him (for much more than the Iraq War). How many Tories will say...

    [News] Nigel Farage and Reform

    No, what's pathetic and embarrassing is when those different opinions are not based on any evidence, logic or facts, but on a cult of the personality. Like all populists, Farage offers simplistic solutions to complex problems by identifying scapegoats and enemies (immigrants, the Woke). He...

    [News] Nigel Farage and Reform

    Sadly, I doubt that any of this will influence those who worship Farage and are planning to vote for Reform UK. These people seem to be influenced by 'what I feel to be right', 'personality' and a visceral dislike of people with darker skin, rather than evidence or facts. Indeed, the IFS will...

    [News] Is the NHS Fit For Purpose

    Yeah. but Brexitters had "had enough of experts", and preferred to be persuaded by those renowned paragons of truth, and passionate defenders of working-class interests, Nigel Farage, Boris Johnson and Jacob Rees-Smugg :shootself

    [Misc] What Book are you Currently Reading?

    I'm a great fan of both Will Hutton and Peter James. Me and Mrs Peteinblack love the Peter James' Roy Grace series, mainly because of all the local references and landmarks: streets in Brighton and Hove, local pubs and restaurants, Shoreham Port, Devils' Dyke, etc.

    [News] Nigel Farage and Reform

    And nowt to do with deregulation of the housing market, virtual abolition of social housing, and refusal to reintroduce rent controls! I bet Farage blames the cold wet Spring and June on immigrants too. His answer to any problem - blame the forrinners. Yet so many people fall for it, time...
