23. Author: Wotsit Date: Fri 30th May 2025. 17:25 "If you don`t like it you can always live somewhere else" used to be the right wing mantra whenever somebody criticised the UK`s way of doing things. what happened to that attitude? Is it hiding in the same place free speech goes whenever Gary Lineker opens his mouth? The enemy travels by private jet, not by dinghy. Reply |

Whether you agree or not with him he is a freelance journalist and the only reason he was still with the BBC for as long as he was. Zwei Pints Bier und ein Päckchen Chips bitte ![]() Reply |

32. Author: Dave_1885 Date: Fri 30th May 2025. 23:33 Linekar is a presenter, not a journalist. And at least he calls out the Israeli genocide, unlike the rest of the BBC. Should double check his posts in the future mind you. Reply |
33. Author: kozmasrightfoot Date: Sat 31st May 2025. 17:18 They are not banning smoking. They are only banning the sale of it to anybody born after 2009 which is a good thing. It`ll stop all kids just about to turn 16 from being legally allowed to smoke. I know if they`re desperate enough that they`ll find a way. Getting an older pal to buy them for them and other such means. As for chippie portions, you already have the option of a small portion if you want it. If you live in Kelty where the chippies are bogging if you buy chips, you`re lucky if half of them are edible. Yuck. Even fish tastes a bit dodgy to me now, I don`t know what that`s about. Nowhere near as tasty as when my gran would take me to dunfermline for fish n chips. You`re better off making it yourself if you can cook. Stinks the hoose oot though. Pars fan. Magpies fan. Mens tennis fan. Alternative rock fan. Not a fan of much else. Reply |
