Best facial hair in the North east. Ex-Charver. Destined for greatness... not sure exactly how yet. Complaining, football, history, politics. In that order.

🚨NEW: British billionaire Peter Hargreaves says he "completely disagrees" with Man Utd part-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe's comments that the country is "on the slide", saying "the country isn't on a slide, it's slid. This country is never, ever coming back, it's finished"

1. The judge can indeed impose the terrorist connection, whether it is so charged or not, per s.69 Sentencing Act 2020. 2. Crown Court sentences don't set precedents. This is trite - and as an MP, you really ought to know this. 3. The sentences are neither disproportionate, nor wrong. There was serious damage (£1.2m) to property, and a police officer's spine was fractured with a sledgehammer. What's "wrong" here is that MPs are outraged that people have been appropriately sentenced for such crimes that include GBH by fracturing a police officer's spine with a sledgehammer. We should not have MPs who think this way.

They spent £12 billion raising 2-child benefits cap (for mostly foreign parents) to buy votes. Now they have run out of money for defence. We remove these clowns or we completely fail as a nation.

Unreal watching this opening ceremony in Mexico and thinking how my Aunty Aileen won a football competition 56 years ago and got her and my Nanna tickets for all the England games plus quarters, semi’s and final for the 1970 World Cup man. And here’s me sat on the sofa at home 😂

The Spectator reports this week that many of London’s tourist attractions now offer huge reductions to visitors in receipt of Universal Credit benefits. The Welfare State began as a refuge of last resort. It has become a two-fingered salute to all those who work and pay taxes.

In case you weren't aware, the NYPD and FDNY play an annual charity hockey game against each other. The cops got a gritty 3-2 win over the firefighters and what followed was a truly incredible, three-minute long bench clearing brawl.

I don’t think enough is said about Keith Andrew’s Barnet. The bloke’s got an absolute first class head of hair. Brentford Gaffa and probably the best curls in the league.

When every opponent is called a Nazi, history is cheapened, debate is destroyed, and lives are put at risk. Abusing the word Nazi doesn’t only insult history, it poisons politics, fuels hatred, and costs lives. @GMB

Charlie Kirk's tour was literally about his willingness to talk to anyone and to debate anything, and he was still shot. Discussion doesn't work with terrorists and other animals.

Labour councillor Ricky Jones literally called for his right-wing opponents to have their throats slit ON CAMERA. "We need to cut all their throats & get rid of them all." He's just been found NOT GUILTY. As Lucy Connolly languishes behind bars for a tweet. TWO TIER BRITAIN.
