    It also overlooks how the wealth generated is concentrated in the hands of the few and often leaves the country without the government having taken any meaningful share in tax.
    That doesn't make any financial sense - unless you're one of the wealthy few.

    You had a good run, Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon, but I think you've been usurped.

    Also, referring to North Koreans as "Norks"?

    Sir John Chilcott says the evidence Tony Blair gave the Chilcott nquiry was "emotionally truthful" but he relied on beliefs rather than facts.

    In other words, the phrase "emotionally truthful" has somehow become a euphemism for "being a ****ing liar."

    Essentially it means they believed what they were saying, even though what they were saying lacked a little something known as "truth"

    In other words, Chilcott also called Blair a sociopath...

    The head of the BBC's Westminster political programmes team has been named as Prime Minister Theresa May's new director of communications, having previously served as an advisor to Michael Portillo in the mid-90s

    Of course you'd be a fool and a Communist if you dared suggest this would have any bearing on the way the BBC's political coverage is balanced...

    Trump and Putin = Laurel and Hardy.

    Trump knows it all and always screws up whilst telling Putin "that's another fine mess you've got me into!"

    The Dire Leader sent a video message in support of London Pride today, which was soundly booed by many of those present - probably because they remember her voting record on gay rights...

    ...and that's before adding the DUP to the equation.

    She could be right. Most of the market area is owned by an Israeli businessman, Teddy Sagi

    Here's a photo of someone both unelected and unaccountable sat at the G20 table.

    ...and sat next to the Dire Leader is Ivanka Trump.

    The good news for Americans is that Boris Johnson only qualifies under one of the three criteria to become POTUS...

    And the fact that David Cameron put gay marriage up for a vote and his party voted against it.

    Another day, another Tory saying they "accidentally" said something remarkably ****ing racist, this time Newton Abbott MP Anne Marie Morris in a radio interview.

    Isn't casual racism within the Tory party the sort of thing the Dire Leader should be asking the opposition parties to "help out" on, rather than her deluded blather from earlier today?
