    I had no idea the **** was going to be there. It diminished the dignity of the occasion.

    My sympathies are with you as he spoilt what would have been a very pleasant afternoon. We know he spouts pure junk so we shouldn't get too upset!!! Very difficult as I would like to throw him from the Clifton Suspension Bridge into the gorge below!!

    A very old poem brought up to date:

    My granddad, viewing earth's worn cogs,
    Said things were going to the dogs;
    His granddad in his house of logs,
    Said things were going to the dogs;
    His granddad in the Flemish bogs.
    Said things were going to the dogs;
    His granddad in his old skin togs,
    Said things were going to the dogs;
    There's one thing that I have to state –
    The dogs have had a good long wait.
    Until now when we know our fate
    The racists and the fools took the bait
    And voted with bigotry and hate
    Who realise now when it is too late
    That Johnson and Brexit helped create
    The ****hole that Britain has become.

    This has clearly been undersold: There is no mention of 'Sunlit Uplands', and where's the music - 'Tomorrow belongs to me' (from Cabaret, but everyone knows that)

    She is a clueless idiot, like practically everyone in the government.

    I remember when last year Piers Morgan exposed just how out of touch she is, she even ended laughing when told of deaths in carehome figures she didn’t even know.
    How is this woman still in that position,baffling.

    I have decided that being a “pensioner” ain’t all it’s cracked up to be.

    Had to wait an extra year to qualify for the state pension - my heart goes out to all those younger than me who will have to wait even longer.
    The Tories break yet another manifesto pledge to stop the pension being increased in-line with the higher of the triple lock components, so one of the worst state pensions in the civilised world continues to remain just that.
    (It’s about £24k in Germany and about a third of that here).
    And on top of all that, 8 weeks after becoming a “pensioner” the DWP STILL hasn’t paid me a penny of my state pension, despite my “application” for the pension having been successfully completed in March.

    That’s the same DWP that stopped my wife’s disability benefits within seconds of my having notified them of her death.
    I will probably end up having a long wait on the phone to be told what I was told, when I last phoned them and asked why I hadn’t been paid - “I don’t know”.

    Won’t be phoning them from Spain, so the chances are that this could drift on for a while.

    What the ****ety-****? Really?? WHY is this not all over the media? Are we going to accept partly trained HGV drivers on our roads purely to help this **** shower in government from admitting that their “oven ready deal” for Brexit is a ****ing disaster!
    No reversing test? How the **** will they get to the loading bays?
    This is seriously scary ….

    Restrained comment that Dave, tell us what you really think. It beggars belief there are those that still support this bunch of sycophantic dirtboxes and their proven liar of a leader.
