He's a splendid chap, ex Sniffin Glue & NME writer.

Astute football watcher and firmly in the fans' corner, against VAR etc

Wonder if LinEUker will support his mate in this confected social media ****fest?

Sniffing glue probably explains it. How the **** did he think in this world of "I'm quite offended by that", it would garner approval?

I found his shuffling and backsliding funnier.
 
What/which kernel of truth exactly do you find funny?

The fact that we have people going on about being exploited by capitalism when in a country ruled by a communist government exploitation of workers is far worse. As would reading the stories of workers living in barracks being paid a pittance to churn out goods which are sold by firms like Apple forva fortune. I know someone who has been working in China for over 7 years. Gets paid over £50,000 a year. Married a Chinese girl and has 2 kids. He can get a beer in his local for about 30p, heaven in his salary. But Chinese workers he knows are on about £20 a week. He loves it but tells some interesting tales, which have altered his views as a socialist on many things.

Apologies for politics but no other way of explaining my original post.

Without addressing the actual content of your post (as politics is banned on the forum), why would you find any of that, or Sugar’s post, ‘funny’?
 
Don't give a tuppenny **** about Royals n that, so don't really know the context of this.

Babies? People have 'em. It's always amazed me that people expect me to be interested in their offspring.

The human race has been replicated itself for many, many years. It's not hard. I don't need a photo of the outcome, ta.


As for Danny Baker. It was obviously a joke which has backfired.

Call him a ****, or a twat if you want, but I fail to see why the PC BBC should sack him for it.
