I have a keen interest in current affairs. I am passionately anti-Brexit and have a distinct dislike of those with extreme right wing views. I am generally to be found in the middle ground, with a tilt to the left on occasions.

Maria Corina Machado has completely devalued the Nobel Peace Prize by regifting it to an absolutely shameless individual. #NobelPeacePrize #Trump #Machado

The very fact that Maria Corina Machado gave her Nobel Peace Prize to a buffoon like Trump goes to prove that she was never a worthy recipient. A Nobel prize is not an excuse to play pass the parcel. Shame on her. #Trump #NobelPeacePrize #Machado

I wish that a lot of these singers who try their hand at Fairytale of New York would realise their limitations and just leave it alone.

What a sad reflection upon modern day society that we are content to be led by convicted felons and those who are using their position to duck prosecution. Surely as people we have higher standards? #felon #conviction #leaders #criminals #society

Does Trump really think that he is going to get a Nobel Peace Prize for orchestrating this sell out? 🤡

I really get annoyed when I see sport being used as a political football. Regardless of background, or tradition, we should all rejoice in its ability to bring people together and to provide our youth with a positive pathway. Sport should always be a unifier and not a divider.

I am always amused when I see someone nowadays being referred to as an "Influencer." Not that long ago they would have been called a 'chancer' or a 'freeloader' #influencers

Farage apparently suffers from selective amnesia.
Nigel Farage now says that any suggestion he's been soft on Putin is "just nonsense".

Here's a quick reminder of what he's said in the past

Only people of a certain vintage in the UK will remember this. Trump is the political equivalent of Yosser Hughes. While Yosser's plea was "Gizza Job", Trump's is "Gizza Prize" #NobelPeacePrize #Trump

Ugh
This man
This paper.
Using the same rhetoric as Trump’s lot, jumping on the Kirk bandwagon to claim victimhood and cancel free speech if it criticises him.

Farage incites riots on our streets, then acts all ‘poor me’ when his ugly racist ideas are called out.

No one should pander to this shit.

I don't know where Keir Starmer found this speech but he certainly delivered it.
