And this is why I call #DonaldTrump #TheOrangeTrumpet

He likes to #Trumpet his own ‘success’ and looks kinda orange-y coloured. But he is just a nasty #racist

Anything over 3 is better than average and means you’re an author whose work isn’t just worth reading or citing but also worth stealing! 😉

It is not to read this and think that #Starmer is toast. And harder still to feel a sense of upset.
