The finest take down of the institution of monarchy and "class" and the grasping, greedy, venal, entitled, and very stupid people it enables that you will read today or any day.

Italy ran Ireland close, showed heart against France, and now have beaten England. That result was coming. Not long ago people were wondering if they were good enough for the Six Nations.
What a day for Scotland & Italy.

When you have one fifth of the population living in poverty as we do you might think a government would do whatever is necessary to boost the economy and lift people out of food banks and cold homes.
But sureβ¦letβs keep Brexit going instead.
In case you missed it ...
it's been almost a decade since anyone in government has talked about the benefits of being in the Single Market or the whole EU. So the UK public has come to the conclusion that Brexit must go based solely on their own lived experience. No politician can avoid that forever
Even my weather app is fed up of this! β³οΈ
I like how every two years at a T20 World Cup everyone goes βwow the associate cricket teams are much better than we thought, we should do more to assist their development and grow the global gameβ and then nothing changes
Thank goodness they finally discovered the yorker

Zohran smiling on the street
Zohran's campaign was his determination to make New York a city everyone can afford to live in. Huge congratulations!
His success will resonate throughout the world. A story where no one is left behind.
It's time to write that story across England & Wales too.
Maybe these socks have had itβ¦

Statement by Faversham Town Council's Community Committee Faversham is a warm and welcoming town which, throughout its long history, has always proudly opened its arms to those who seek refuge. We as a town are rightly proud of our embodiment of fundamental principles of British values such as democracy, the rule of law, individual liberty, and tolerance for the beliefs of others. However, over recent weeks it has been noted that tensions within our community have arisen linked to unauthorised placement of flags on public lampposts and abusive behaviour when questioned. This has led to many residents reporting feeling afraid and intimidated, and shamefully others have reported they have experienced racist abuse within the past few weeks. Faversham Town Council strongly condemns any acts of racism, intimidation and bullying for any reason.
We recognise that many residents display the St George cross and other national symbols as a positive expression of pride, and this is entirely welcome on private property or where permission has been sought. Faversham Town Council's own flag policy dictates that the flags of our nation are flown regularly from our public buildings. However, we also recognise that these same symbols of national pride can also be used to intimidate and cause division, and we call upon KCC, Kent Police and Swale Borough Council to work with us and the wider community to restore community harmony and a sense of street safety, mutual respect, and the shared pride we all have in our town and wider nation,
Measured, sensible, and much welcomed statement from Faversham Town Council on the idiocy of the moronic flag pandemic.
