No — port 953 is not privileged.

Spent far too long looking at online menu photos of Pizzas yesterday. I find them as fulfilling as photos of cats.

But I can eat pizza.

I doubt any Troll here who’s trying to smear ⁦Keir Starmer about decade-old events will be interested to read these pages from my book about his record prosecuting rape gangs. But he’s done more to bring them to justice than Farage, Yaxley-Lennon - or Musk -will ever do.

What is this new hell ? When you get this from your car insurance reset password link you know it's time to jump ship...

Broadsword calling Danny boy - over.
