Wait until the brainless unemployed and minimum wage earners vote Farage in. Imagine their surprise when their wages are cut, benefits stopped and the NHS has to be paid for by buying insurance. That on top of contributing to a private pension because there’ll be no state pension.

My American friends. In Britain we have a Trump supporter called Farage. He’s a right wing extremist and racist. Sadly because of our government being unable to sort out our immigration problem legally he now has many followers. We’re on the same track as you. If you see Farage throw milkshakes.

Just ordered the new piglets. My three pigs are called Ham, Bacon and Chop and they’re on their final days. Lots of yummy molasses and apples for breakfast. I keep them with my neighbour and it sticks our freezers twice a year and leaves enough to swap with other people in the village.

Very dark here tonight. I like it like this. No hot tub tonight. Just me and the stars. Oh and whisky, of course there’s whisky.

How many police coming under attack and then withdrawing? I’m afraid I’d be tougher on criminals than that given my body armour, riot shield and big stick. Yes rage about the morons but let’s see some policing.

I can’t think why this reminds me of my mum and grandmothers on both sides of my family, especially the Yorkshire side.

I messaged my doctors yesterday about some new health issue, told them the symptoms etc in the message. PA saw me 2 hours later who said I’d need a hospital referral. Brought a doctor in to check that was right. Spent twice as long with doc than PA who then said it was something completely different

While I agree with you I suppose technically the government are those that govern including the opposition. They all sit in government.

At last. A goodly amount of rain this morning. The pigs already have their mud bath and are as happy as…

After they cheat and win again. That’s when you will have your last, your very last chance. Because after that it’s a whole different world of shit.

Since when has anything trickled all the way down, especially wealth. It just gets diverted, always has.

I have the Today programme on in he morning by habit. I’ve never found anything else to replace it. The number of comments here suggest likewise.

Today marks my 100th unit of blood freely given to the NHS. If you don’t do it then do it now.
