That quote about “not supporting what you say but will always support your right to say it!” Source anyone?

Just watching a rerun of Wasps v Exeter. Why is rugby so much better to watch than “”round ball” football? Is it just down to the players’ and refs’ attitudes? Allowing the ref to do his or her job without undue interference seems to help the game as a spectacle.

Surely it’s not KS’ Job yet to provide leadership other than to his own party. His day will surely come, nearer to election time. For now his role is to create an effective opposition and be a thorn in Boris’s side. It’s a (longish) game!

Who is this dreadful guy currently on the SkyTV film programme? Ralph Spall? He only seems to know three words “yeah” “like” and “right”. Why do you keep giving him airtime! Voting with the off button! #bettertvplease #TSAM

Just curious: what’s a ‘G’? As in the restaurant delivery add on TV?

Interesting how the word “settings” has taken on new force and even new meaning under Covid. Just listen to nearly any news reporter, any channel. Just an observation, not passing judgement!

Hi thanks for the rapid response. Can I ask What sort of ballpark price should I be looking at for what you suggest below?

Hey Lee! 1st tip would be to ensure you have the right wheelchair. I use a lightweight active wheelchair with a front wheel from @RGKWheelchairs & I also really enjoy my @mountaintrike which is great for cross country! 2nd tip is just believe In yourself & take that 1st push!

By the way how long has “gift” been a verb? It’s all very confusing. I’ve recently heard it used as a subject and verb in the same sentence: on TV, “gifting a gift”, for example. Huge potential for disaster down that route!

I’ve just realised that there are people for whom the term “migrant crisis” refers to the poor migrants, not to those who can help them!

When the likes of Patel and Farage talk about a “migrant crisis” they’re not talking about a crisis for those poor people who feel compelled to take desperate measures to improve their lives. They mean a crisis for those in a position to help them. How sad we’ve come so low.

The dreadful Pritti Patel now on the radio apparently advocating we all start policing and reporting each other’s social conduct. Any historical precedent? She is a piece of work. And takes no responsibility it seems. What qualifies her to have a public platform?
