- Comment on Only three-quarters of first class mail delivered on time 2 hours ago:
I’d say about 90 - 95% of the physical post I get (that isn’t a package delivery) is shit I didn’t ask for or want. Junk mail in other words. Goes straight into the paper recycling. What a humongous waste of resources.
- Comment on Sikhs 'demonised' after murder, says community leader 2 hours ago:
Firstly fuck Elon Musk.
But secondly… these ancient religious rules are fucking dumb. My religion requires me to carry a weapon 🔪. Why should that override common sense law around carrying weapons? This isn’t the ancient times. We’re (supposed to be) a civilised country.
- Comment on Nicola Sturgeon: ‘I should not be held responsible for the wrongdoing of men’ 22 hours ago:
I mean to be fair, Nicola… You were the leader of a political party during which time your husband stole hundreds of thousands of pounds that benefited your lifestyles. I think it’s fair that the press prints your face in reference to this story.
- Comment on We know what former SNP chief Peter Murrell bought with £400,000 of embezzled funds. What I’d like to know is why 2 days ago:
What I’d like to know is why
Because when it’s not your own money… why not? He basically YOLO’d but got caught.
- Comment on How privatisation is ruining your life and putting the UK out of step with the modern world 2 days ago:
The government is on board with this system. With a revolving door between regulators and regulated, and corporate lobbying, the interests of investors prevail over those of users. Welfare policy must now be filtered through the private sector lens.
I think this is the problem. A shitty regulator with poor governance. Not necessarily privatisation in general.

- Comment on A year after nationalisation, is South Western Railway delivering? 6 days ago:
It’s not as offensive as the train liveries you’ve posted. But over here anything painted in the Union Jack (Flag) is derided as offensive and ridiculed. Even kid’s clothing. You have to take the commentary with a pinch of salt.
- Comment on Starmer urges TNT to make Champions League final free-to-air 1 week ago:
Sir Keith: Team, I’m getting hammered by this local election stuff…what do poor people like that can win me favour?

- Comment on JD Vance urges UK anti-immigration activists to ‘keep on going’ 1 week ago:
Forget the talk of the UK potentially being a vassal state to the EU. We’re already a vassal state to the US following the Marshall Plan and it’s only getting worse as we fawn over their racist intolerant government.

Literally… follow the money. See which politicians get paid by what external lobby groups and you’ll have your answer.
- Comment on Neo-Nazi obsessed teen jailed for trying to kill Kurdish man in Bristol with axe 2 weeks ago:
Langdon said that despite both of Burns’s parents being teachers, the teenager had stopped attending full-time education at 14.
I’m sorry but what bullshit is this. How can you be teachers and equally abandon your own child like that. Parents should be thrown in jail as well.
- Comment on Keir Starmer raises eyebrows as he proudly declares himself a 'gooner' 2 weeks ago:
British man uses British slang. America gets upset. More news at ten, back to you Jeff.
- Comment on MPs Demand Met Chief Retract Antisemitism Smears Against Protesters 2 weeks ago:
Instead of signing letters asking nicely to retract comments… sue the fuck out of him. If he’s called someone or an organisation antisemitic without any basis then cripple him with the legal system. This is the only language these people understand.
