    I'll follow Seria A and support Milan as they are in the same place as Spurs in their league.

    /QUOTE]

    What I find interesting is the amount of sportspeople (and the like ), who so often play/
    perform on the day after their parent's death and declare ''it's what they would have wanted''

    Compare the two.

    I have no doubt the Tories will smuggle in all kinds of crap under cover of all this.

    They have a track record of useing big news storys to cover the introduction of contraversial legislation. Removing the Scottish Gov powers on energy is one recent example.

    And they still haven't standardized bra clasps. Where's government regulation when you need it? I wondered as a teenager, fumbling around one-handed in the dark with a technique that had worked once.

    If you were in the Civil Service now, I imagine you would have just been fired by a newly Truss-appointed Minister. <laugh>

    Once the good readership of The Daily Express cotton to the fact that an hereditary monarchy means that Charles gets to be King and Camilla, Queen (Consort), the hereditary ****'s going to hit the hereditary fan...

    Heaven forbid that William and his progeny were to befall a terrible incident. Rather than King Harry and Queen Megan, The Express would be calling for insurrection and a coup to establish a new regime.

    Water; (raw sewage into our rivers) Trains; ( you need the wealth of Sunak to use them) Electricity (It's not their fault.. no of course not) Check out France. Oil; Norway (The worlds richest country) had less than Scotland but ours was blown to Thatchers mates, Steel: what there is left (minimal) is owned by an Indian Billionaire (Nice Irony) Irony and Steel gedit! Car Manufacture in Britain yeah it's German, French, Japanese, Chinese and Indian., NHS; yes slowly but surely it is being privatised. (Lots of the medical services in hospitals, like blood tests and scans are actually operated by private for profit companies IN the hospital. Education: The most expensive Universities in Europe are to a large extent private for profit companies.
    Compared to Afghanistan and Saudi and Russia, Britain is a great place to live, it is, really.

    The Tory party used to consist of the Landed Gentry, Toffs from Eton and Harrow, mostly thick as **** but the chances were that the odd one would be adecent human being. Now they have added the thick from the working classes to their number.

    Unbelievably my kid’s U11s game this weekend is postponed as a “mark of respect”.

    Prince Philip would have said the biggest mark of respect would be to allow sports to continue, especially for the children.
