    I guess you need your limited intellect to keep labelling Archer as a junkie and asking Pompey whether she knows what a woman is, so it’s probably for the best. Reading 2 sides to every story would confuse the **** out of you and it’s likely damage one of the two brain cells you possess.

    Starmer may be steaming about P&O Ferries, but it was Labour who sold the firm down the river.

    In 2006, Tony Blair and Gordon Brown stood on the sidelines when P&O Ports was sold to UAE-based Dubai Ports World for £5billion in a debt fuelled deal which would later go badly wrong.

    The most remarkable aspect of the transaction was that the US, Britain’s most significant trading and strategic partner, wanted no part of it.

    Then Senator of New York, Hillary Clinton, fought a fierce battle against six P&O ports, mainly on the Eastern Seaboard of the US, being sold to DP World.

    The American part of the deal was blocked by George W Bush’s White House, which didn’t want critical ports falling into Gulf hands when they could potentially be a national and economic security threat.

    What is indisputable is that under its pre-DP World ownership, with a powerful board and a full London listing, P&O would never have even attempted a flawed and immoral approach to cut its wages bill.

    What the current incident does show is the utter folly of the noughties, when New Labour allowed great chunks of our national infrastructure to fall into grasping overseas hands including our main airports.

    Labour’s carelessness in selling vital assets has cost UK investment, jobs, taxes and command and control over great swathes of the nation’s commerce.

    She looks remarkably healthy and manicured for someone that has been imprisoned by a barbaric regime.

    That's what I thought.

    Not like when Terry Waite was released after years.

    The term "Covid Passport" will be silently dropped as the plans for digital id (which have been in planning for years) will progress.

    The pro EUROPEAN UNION voters clearly didn't know they were voting for this and for the EUROPEAN UNION army prodding the Russian bear .

    We can still at least vote out politicians that try to drag us into these stupid things .

    ALL EUROPEAN UNION colonies are subservient to Germany and Ursula von der Leyen

    The Germans/EUROPEAN UNION leading the way with closing down gas and oil production .

    Why would you want to produce your own fossil fuel when you can buy it from Saudi Arabia Iran or Russia ?


    Paying double for petrol is going to stop people driving as far .

    This planet will not exist soon and it will be **** all to do with the fake Climate Change nonsense. We're all doomed. Well, all you lot will be, I shall be returning to my birth planet on the Non Binary Ship imminently.

    Best of luck, earthlings, you'll need it.
