Studying English not only teaches the nuances of our language, but also the writing and the culture that makes us who we are.
A so-called patriot should be all for it, but no.. This merely shows she prefers to have a nation of ignorance and ignorants, who believe her knees-jerk racist bollox

Calling English a 'rip-off degree' is one of the most blatant exhibitions of personal barbarism I've ever seen. You've demonstrated nothing but the poverty of your own mind.

Normally I would love this... really love it..as I have loathed them for decades..
But if the death of the Tory party is due to them spawning the growth of Reform (MagaUK), then their legacy is something even worse

Btw
'Real heroes' don't bomb civilians...
They don't provoke famine
They don't target journalists
They don't murder aid workers
They don't carry out acts of piracy in international waters...

Real heroes oppose that!

Nobody demonstrates in favour of Hamas..
They demonstrate against Netanyahu and his genocidal government.
And we know the Israeli government and IDF is not all Jewish people...many of whom are against what he is doing

I know this is obvious when you think about it but we don’t think about it enough: fascists have to cow & persecute decent journalists to prevent them from reporting exactly what they, the fascists, are doing. Fascist-adjacent ‘journalists’ help by insisting that we shouldn’t call fascists facsists.

Some good news.

London is meeting legal limits for toxic NO2 pollution for the first time – almost 200 years earlier than predicted – following the Mayor’s "world leading air pollution policies," City Hall announces.

The Ultra Low Emissions Zone - and similar policies - really do work.

As a UK resident in Spain, I don't have an issue with a photo ID - It's actually made some things easier post Brexshit.
However, I can see how it may be a problem in the current UK climate. Starmer is under pressure as it is and has opened an unnecessary debate
PS who pays, citizen or govt?
