Nah you’re probably right as all I see of JOB is the arrogant, shouty stuff on the radio clips. I shouldn’t really judge him just on that I guess and maybe read some of his stuff.
I’m with my views on Brexit mate…..couldn’t vote for a regime that has austerity at its heart ;)

No, you were right first time. O'Brien is an arrogant, intolerant **** :emoticon-0100-smile

I think that was Carr's point.

Is Jacob Reece Mogg immortal? Appointed minister for Brexit opportunities, this from the man who said we might not see any benefits for 50 years!! How very ironic

Im so glad he’s said “**** ‘em” and said he’ll “go down swinging”.
I saw him at the Bearcat Club in Twickenham years back, before he was big, and for the first 2 mins I thought “who’s this twat”….by the end of his act he had the whole room in stitches.
His stand up has always been controversial and people need to get over it.
As he said….

What’s worse than finding a worm in your apple ?

Being gang raped by your uncle and his mates.

It’s all about leading up to the shock

He's a funny guy and will get plenty of support (he'd get even more support if he hadn't signed up to that illegal tax avoidance scheme, but that's another story). I thought 8 out of 10 Cats was one of the best programmes on TV.

The thought of censorship and state approved comedy is too horrendous to contemplate.

Dunno where to put this so here might work. It isn’t political but a bit of advice.
Does any one here suffer from Arthritis ? pretty certain I’ve started getting it in my fingers and hand. Any advice from any sufferers? What works to help with the pain ?
Worth going to the GP ?

Any advice appreciated

I have it in my fingers mate.
Not a lot helps to be honest.
Worse in cold weather.

I also have suspected arthritis in my neck, which is giving me all sorts of gip with back and leg pain, due probably to a trapped nerve.
Awaiting a scan (could be a long wait).

May be worth asking the GP about cortisone?

Go to your GP. Get referred to a specialist. Expect steroids and methotrexate / sulphaslazine move on to the more pricey stuff like Humira a if it’s not well controlled.Once you are on the medication you ain’t coming off it, if it’s Rheumatoid Arthritis. Or osteo.

However it can be well controlled for decades.
