Give The Serpent a try on iPlayer. Bit confusing at times but a good plot.
Ah ok, will give it a go.....half way through series 3 of Breaking Bad....loving it. Just finding it hard to just watch TV constantly so breaking it up with reading, Twitter and...gulp...looking back on here.
At least this gets me out of home learning.
Blimey it's lucky you are not referring to that 2019 video... you would have made yourself look a right t2t.
Yes, because we’re in 2021. I’m not referring to anything.
It’s a clip of him talking rather than the newspaper or a writer’s opinion and you’ve been windmilling since it was posted. You’re a ****ing Telegraph reader you goon.
Stroller that video was from 2019 mate. It's the same time you believed Jezza would win the election? Things have changed and obviously what he said then ended up being different.
It really is sad that 2 national newspapers (The Guardian and Independent) spend so much time running Brexit down. Every day there is a different project fear story. We have left the EU FFS and we ain't going back, why can't people accept it and move on? It's soooooo boring now.
Because it’s their job to report the news rather than puff pieces about the government that make you feel better about your Party’s dismal handling of the two most important issues for decades.
Funny I haven't read any positive stories from either paper regarding our fantastic roll-out of the vaccine? Sadly those two papers are your type of read. Anti-Tory anti-government and anti- this country.
Perhaps they’re focusing on facts rather than prematurely getting over-excited to please jingoistic middle-aged snowflakes? Why are you scanning newspapers you write off as nonsense for good news stories anyway?
What you’re doing isn’t patriotic at all, by the way. It’s moronic nationalism which is exactly what this government wants.

I do think the obvious success of the vaccination (and testing) programme in this country should be applauded. However the applause and plaudits should not be aimed at the politicians and civil servants......more to the vast army of low paid, and often voluntary workers, both young and old who have come out in their droves to both organise and administer the vaccine quickly, and from my experience very efficiently.
They are the real heroes to emerge out of all this.
Absolutely. Criticism of the government should never be taken as criticism of the regular staff in the NHS and certainly not volunteers. I think the two are regularly conflated to deflect away from the government.
mmm I see what you did there... clever. The Guardian and Independent may throw in the odd story but 99% are all anti-Brexit.
Why don't either of those papers discuss why the EU sold out and rushed through (scrapping the bottom of the barrel) a China deal when they know about their atrocious human rights record?
Whereas Senior Conservatives have called for a "reset" in UK policy towards China, including sanctions against officials responsible for human rights abuses. Where is the support here?
Why aren't they discussing the Eurozone rather keep moaning about how bad Brexit will be?
The Eurozone is going into a double-dip recession. Italy is f22ked again. why don't they print the truth...
Rome on collision course with EU as Italy plunges into 'unmanageable public debt' crisis
Why aren't they reporting on how Germany decided to order 70M vaccine vials away from the EU?
'Germany secures bigger share of Covid vaccines than other EU members'
mmm that's funny the very thing they were worried that the UK would do with business remember? Hypocrites. Not to mention some of our own on this site (mentioning no names) bitching about not joining that unfair EU agreement on vaccines... and how it would cost lives. Thank god the government opted out of that disaster! We have vaccinated nearly 4.4M and the EU about 20 people... and even today they are still arguing about which country gets the most! Latest news is they are also going to run out. Funny how those expert voices on here have fallen silent on that one?
Even today I hear the mummers from Thornberry trying to knock how brilliant the roll-out has been. Maybe she should have listened to the fella on the news who said this is the biggest vaccination in British history and it's a huge logistical task. Something we can be proud off
Both of those newspapers just print anti-everything UK and that's why you like them. And I would also add that I would rather be some white van man driver, who beats his chest when they play the national anthem or cry when my country wins a World Cup, than someone who does nothing but knock this country, uses this country and just bloody moans about everything this country country has to offer. If people don't like it 3333 off to China.

Probably because they are this countries newspapers so report on domestic news rather than on the EU.
The news is free to report what they like, even if it's "anti UK" news. If you don't like it you're welcome to move to China
Obviously nobody is wading through that mess.
I searched for it and it was the first link. It’s not like they’re hiding away from what has so far been a strong performance on jabs.
Chances are all the other stuff you’re crying about them not reporting they actually are but not with the hyperbole of wherever you’re copy and pasting these headlines from.
My point is both papers have consistently praised the EU but never mention that the whole thing is crumbling around it's Brussels food halls? We are always portrayed as the villain for wanting to leave. Anyone who voted Brexit is some Union Jack skinhead hating foreigners. These papers with idiots like Owen Jones and the other cry babies (too many to list) who somehow think they are better than others, when they are not. These papers wanting that 2nd referendum trying to take away a democratic result because people voted the 'wrong way'. Trying to deprive people of their one voice are now continuing with their utter rubbish. The good thing we do have here is the freedom of speech and democracy.... remember before you knock my comments on 'moving to China', these 2 papers were acting like them by trying to change a result?
You’ve been delivered the hardest Brexit you could have dreamed of and the Tories have an 80 seat majority yet you’re still the victim.
They are actually headlines from a variety of newspapers not from your 2. All information is correct and spot on. go ahead try and refute it if you can.
Fortunately even this lot didn’t dare inflict that upon us given even they knew how disastrous pandering to the tiny percentage of extremists calling for that would be.
