    [Politics] Liz Truss **RESIGNS 20/10/2022**

    She lacks the ability to argue a case constructively and passionately and comes across terribly in interviews . You could give a competent PM a sealed envelope containing a mystery topic and after five minutes construct either a passionate defence or a reason to oppose it. TB, DC and BJ were...

    [Politics] Russia invades Ukraine (24/02/2022)

    I think Putin will be able to ride this out no problem. The state security is so good and so ruthless that people will only make limited protests. About the only hope is that sanctions cripple the country to such an extent that the State Security forces start to see their wages dry up, when...

    [Film] Next James Bond?

    Yes, it will be someone fairly surprising. I think Hardy was naughty a while back so he's out along with Hiddle... Idris Elba would be great but, everyone says that so he's out too. Tom Hopper has been suggested and might make a good Bond,

    Mushrooming

    Been easing in to Shrooming myself recently, 3 weeks back found plenty of Giant Puffballs while visiting Mrs V's Ma in Shropshire. Not taken anything else for the pot though as been unsure on ID's.. Getting the John Wright River Cottage Fungi book soon to add to the phone app shroom identifier...

    Is Keir really credible?

    That is the new level of irrationality that we have descended to sadly. There was another poster on here that recently started trying to promote Blair as the biggest bogeyman of all time too. It's a desperation to shift the focus away from the last 12 years of snowballing diminishing...

    [Politics] Liz Truss **RESIGNS 20/10/2022**

    Yep, according to a US economist we are now a " Submerging Market " ....we are looking at really hard times ahead. Things will get a lot worse for the country until we get the much needed and inevitable change of government. Sadly we are at the political equivalent of Cricket where the team...

    [Football] if you could have any player from England's past, at their peak, in the side now.....

    Yes, agree that drinking did not help him but, the question was " which England player in his prime...." .. no fan of Utd under Fergusson and their arrogance and gamesmanship either.

    [Football] if you could have any player from England's past, at their peak, in the side now.....

    Bryan Robson, a tough tackling, ball winning attacking midfielder. Who, incidentally, scored 26 times in 90 appearances for England compared to Beckhams 17 goals in 115 appearances. Beckham was a luxury player while Robson would take the game by the scruff of the neck.

    [Sussex] What's hot and what's not in Worthing?

    Nip over the road to The Parsonage, nominally a restaurant but good beers in the snug bar.

    [Football] Liverpool fans plan 1,700-strong legal action

    Given the memories of Hillsborough it's quite probable that what happened in Paris brought a lot of fear and trauma back. Its rare that it happens but when you find in the middle of tear gas and riot police I'm sure it's terrifying.

    [Politics] Liz Truss **RESIGNS 20/10/2022**

    Well, my boss will be happy today. Will anything trickle down to me and my 30 or so equally deserving colleagues ? No. We will just have to work harder, tighten our belts and take it on the chin as usual... still, at least I still have 28 total days paid holiday at the moment.

    Trump

    He didn't see that, he saw what he wanted to see.. like that first day when Trump was inaugurated when Trump said it did not rain and that there was the largest ever crowd to witness and inauguration... both lies of course but handily proscribed as " Alternative Facts " by Kelly-anne Conway and...

    [Politics] Russia invades Ukraine (24/02/2022)

    Very true, mostly silent apart from a few acts of defiance until the mobilisation announcement then suddenly running for the hills when they realise its their arses on the line. They are certainly more aware of what has been happening than they like to let on and are fully aware that they have...

    [Politics] Fracking Ban

    As I see it, the fracking companies think the UK is not viable for profitable fracking, the locals don't want fracking and the chancellor said that it was not cost effective nor would it lower energy prices for UK consumers... so why is this nonsense being encouraged by Truss and Mogg ? is this...

    [Politics] Zarah Sultana MP on the wrong track

    Bless, you hold tight to that lie, don't let it go, cherish it and keep it close... that way whenever our current shower sell you down the river, lie to you, about turn on their promises or just claim that black is white again, pull out that lie from 20 years back and remember that Blair was...

    Trump

    Fortunately HWT does not have to try to find evidence of Trump's kids being corrupt ....New York's Attorney General has done that for him.
