My only problem with Thameslink is the sore arse I get whenever I go on there. I much preferred the old fabric bucket seats rather than these in the cavernous tubes they have now.

Uncle was D Day plus 6. He never spoke about the war. The closest he came to death was here in the UK when a bomb dropped on Egremont Place as he was walking up the road. The reason he never spoke about it was because he was in the battalion that liberated Belsen. My dad only recounting the...

I think some folk are beginning to lose it

They said that about Greece in 2014. And when Wales made the semis

That's an astonishing poll. I'd ask for anyone not voting Tory (which is about 75% it seems) what are the three main reasons for this ? I can't help thinking it's less to do with policy and more to do with conduct. I'm not sure that Labour will be better economically. I just can't forgive the...

Germany turn up at every tournament claiming they can't win it.

Can't agree with that. Excepting that an England win wouldn't be a shock. The Euros is always an open tournament. I think about 13/14 teams have reached the final over the years. 8 or 9 winners. This year is no different. That's why I prefer it to the World Cup. Greece, anyone ? (That year was...

This is true. An informed decision can't be made in such a debate. But the politicians know that and play to it. Sunak 'won' for me because he detailed policy. But he has the benefit of a long run up. I don't vote Tory though. And I'm not going to.

Won't go down well with all, but respect to Starmer for sticking to the (UK written) UCHR

Poor TV, hope it enjoys it's last twenty minutes.

'Gentleman please', I think they should have had someone like Nigel Owens the rugby referee holding it. 'Mr Sunak- ENOUGH'

I think that's a woosh. If not, I would never take something as read until you look into it.

The difficulty Starmer has is that he's not in the seat with current and active policy to spin.

Starmer will want out of here, Labour are clearly running this on the basis of folk's dislike for the Tories. But he's short on policy. Sunak seeing the weakness. If you didn't know the game, you'd put Sunak polls ahead.

Sunak clearly making points better here, although I think folk warm to Starmer more.

I won't argue with that point. Fair enough.

I always had a different take. As much as they went back on policy, I felt the Lib Dems curbed the Tory excesses during that parliament.

I'm not sure that the 80th anniversary has the same psychological relevance as the 75th. We tend to work in 25s on these things. In 2019 there was a lot going on. A moving time. What I was pleased to see was the veterans who are still with us are made a fuss of. And so it should be. I feel for...

Not with a criminal record to follow I wouldn't think.
