Always a delight to get a laughing emoji from the other side of the world, but I was referring to the other person who follows me around here like a lost sheep and if he is not having a pop himself he is liking posts of those who do. Very sad.

It was just my opinion. Egg thinks that The Beatles are “shit.” I love them. Each to his/her own. The thread is all about not liking something that is generally popular.

A bit early to hit the bottle isn’t it Whelk? Not to early for the forum emoji stalker though I see.

I think that the irony is lost on them. I guess they don’t mind the Christian sex offenders because they are “one of us.”

Why shouldn’t they be?

That was a low point, but the show isn’t about who wins it, it’s about the process and I’m sure there is a fair proportion of the audience who don’t bother to vote.

At the risk of upsetting people who don’t like the use of the term “the far right” a certain high profile “far right” protagonist is continuing to hijack Christianity to further his movement’s agenda. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/dec/07/church-of-england-campaign-challenging-tommy-robinson-put-christ-back-into-christmas-message Given that Christmas is based on the celebration of the birth of Christ, I’m not sure that Christ needs to be put back into Christmas does he? I attended a carol service yesterday and every single carol we sung celebrated the birth of the baby Jesus. Have I missed something?

It’s not getting any better for poor old Nigel. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-15361975/amp/Nigel-Farage-reported-police-claim-election-fraud-Clacton.html

Best series for years. Good to see the camp mates get on so well through the whole three weeks and they all clearly had a blast. Although he didn’t win, Tom will soon be a star. You do wonder how long they can keep repeating the same old formula, but this year showed that there is still life in the old kangaroo’s penis yet.

Nothing dodgy about our Nigel… https://www.independent.co.uk/bulletin/news/farage-reform-donation-investigation-cryptocurrency-b2879642.html

The apple never falls far from the tree. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/dec/07/us-may-end-support-for-ukraine-war-effort-says-donald-trump-jr Trump is only interested in quick, easy wins and money. If he figures there is more to be made in cosying up to Russia of course he will leave Ukraine to their own devices. Perhaps he thinks that the tacky peace award his latest brown noser Infantino has given him in some way is equal to the Nobel prize so he doesn’t need to bother anymore?

Thanks for the post. Please post more, love your name. Makes you wonder why Poch has picked him too?

I think that the hammering that Labour took under Corbyn still gives Starmer nightmares and he is conscious of the whole Brexit farce from them then. Although the attitude is changing and the Brexiteers are dying off, he is still wary of going too far back towards the EU. It really is a no brainer now as far as the economy is concerned (and Trump’s US turning into an unpredictable mess). Labour are starting to make the right noises but fully agree, they need to be much more positive starting now.

He said that he didn’t intend to do it. It was just an instinctive reaction to kick it. 😂

Trump reached a new low, even for him, at the WC ceremony. How anybody in that position can act like a spoiled child on the world stage so many times and remain in power is astonishing. This behaviour has become normalised. It should never be acceptable, especially from a man in his position.
