This is dangerous talk, he should be reprimanded for it.
The United Kingdom is releasing five Muslim terrorists accused of planning an attack on an American airbase.
They should just officially rename themselves the United Islamic Kingdom and get it over with.
What is clear is they are no longer a reliable ally of the United States.

Counter Terrorism Policing in the United Kingdom has announced that the five men arrested near RAF Fairford on Sunday will be released on bail this afternoon. The men were arrested in the village of Whelford, a short dis...

Well, I went through the 5 Oktoberfest beers at the pub in town. Not a bad way to turn 52.

I've not done the Private Eye crossword in year, picked one up on Friday, two short sessions and I've only got one clue left, and I'm struggling with it. Not after help, just impressed I've done so well, so far.

There's a couple of pubs in town that have got the Oktoberfest beers in, and I do want to go in and drink some. But getting up and about and out of the house seems like such an effort today. :¬/

It's been many years since I last drank in the Euston Tap. In fact, it was the Cider Tap I last drank in. Nice Budvar, only £6.70, but I'm definitely getting old as though the music is great, it's far too loud.

Getting a slightly twitchy eyelid when I see whisky brands try to muscle in on Negroni Week. NEGRONIS ARE MADE WITH GIN! If you use whisky, it's a different drink. That a Boulevardier is delicious is beside the point. (Same goes for tequila brands, etc. I see you.)

I've left St. Albans early and will have about 2 hours or so I'm London around Kings Cross this lunchtime. The question is, do I find a pub to hole up in, or go for a wander?

Two tier policing. Victoria Thomas Bowen, who chucked a milkshake at Farage, was given a 13-week jail sentence, suspended for 12 months; had to pay him £150 compensation; had to complete 120 hours of unpaid work and pay £450 in court costs. It was nowhere near the level of violence of this assault.

One of my neighbours is currently away on holiday, and another neighbour has cheekily been using their driveway to park one of their cars. This morning a skip lorry turned up to put a skip into said driveway, and the driver has just been going door to door to ask who owns the car and get it moved. 🤣

Ed is the definition of that proverb that says you should never strive to be nice, you should strive to be kind. Being 'nice' means you don't want to upset anyone, being kind means doing what's right by others even if it might hurt you. Ed is 'nice', he's not kind.

The thing is that parish councils do not have the power to call a vote on seceding from the UK. It's not a 'symbolic referendum', it's a dumb stunt and a waste of the precept.

McD's, then Dominos, and now Burger King are all pushing chicken products in their menus, which when you think about it shows how expensive beef has got. Factory/Cage chickens are so much cheaper, and they don't tell you where they're coming from. :¬/

Phone call dead on 9am from "hmrc" asking for security information to continue. No, sorry, I'm *never* doing this. It's far too easy for scammers to just do random stuff like this, and whilst the call may be genuine, the information they had was seriously out of date, so no.

Harvest has begun. We have moved almost everything on the farm in the last two weeks to create a festival and then a pressing space. It's a superhuman effort that requires long hours and determination. But yesterday we put the first pears through the press and already I am filled now with excitement
