No doubt there will be a lot of disgust and outrage from the Tory shires. But when it comes to the crunch they will hold their noses and ensure the Tories are reelected. Looking after number one is always top of the list for some of these people. Some things never change

When you elect a bunch of clowns expect a circus

I accept that my original comment is incorrect in the light of the information which is now coming to light and that shit didn't just happen in this instance. It now appears that a report had been issued in 2018 in which a consultant had advised the buildings owner that major structural damage...

It was undergoing repairs for structural recertification as it was over 40 years old. It looks as if there was significant concrete spalling which had exposed rebar to damage by salt and this resulted in catastrophic failure. A shocking tragedy. There will no doubt be endless discussions about...

Totally agree. You've only scratched the surface of the problem

Retirement parties and speeches are a bit embarrassing and naff. Do you really want to be reminded that you have wasted 30 years of your life doing a job you despise just to pay the mortgage with a bunch of people you can't stand. OK some people like their job and the people they work with, but...

A lot of Americans are unhappy with the two party system and would like to see the rise of a viable 3rd party alternative. There have been candidates in the past who have run fairly good campaigns as Independents, Ross Perot and Ralph Nader to name two, but have never gathered a real head of...

Certainly from the information her biographer has revealed she was a very nasty piece of work and as more people become aware of this she will become something of a busted flush. In terms of moving forward I find the news from the States far more encouraging. The Bill to make Juneteenth (June...

Most major theaters are due to open September 14, with some of the smaller off Broadway venues opening a bit before. News reports were saying theaters are typically nervous about opening new shows at the best of times, throw in Covid and reopening after being shut for well over a year and...
