This is the best George Wendt joke on cheers by an absolute mile, and its so well done www.youtube.com/watch?v=0FNH...

Cheers is up there one of the best USA comedies. RIP Norm (George). But what was it with the Cheers themed bars complete with Norm and Cliff robots seated at the bar spouting one liners? (Early '90s). Odd.

Trump's DOJ is reportedly considering dropping a criminal case against Boeing over two deadly 737 MAX crashes Reminder that the Trump admin has halted or withdrawn enforcement actions against 130+ corporate offenders since inauguration day. Is this being "tough on crime"?

Why oh why aren't Labour MPs up in arms, calling for Starmer's resignation. And why are unions still funding this poisonous wreckage of a Labour Party ... "Shame on you, Keir Starmer" via Red Labour

Labour has a whopping great majority and four years left to turn this country around. They should be setting the agenda, not chasing about trying to placate voters of a party with five MPs who will never vote for them anyway. It's not only disappointing... it's embarrassing

The UK is facing a desperate shortage of care workers with an already completely overwhelmed social care sector struggling to meet the demand for services. This plan is the very definition of self harm inflicted to chase Reform voters

FUN FACT: Since 2019, Nigel Farage's Reform has taken more than £2.3 MILLION from oil and gas interests - making up an astonishing 92% of the party's donations. Reform are NOT for ordinary people. They're in the pockets of the big oil lobby.

Trump's EPA just moved to reverse state and local bans on toxic "forever chemicals" that can lead to birth defects and cancer.  So much for "Make America Healthy Again." https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2025/apr/05/trump-pfas-toxic-forever-chemicals

It’s nine years since the UK voted to quit the European Union. It has proven to be a disaster made greater by the election of Donald Trump. The world is at a pivotal moment. Stark political reality faces us. Labour needs to stop being so afraid about rejoining the EU bylines.scot/politics/lab...

Turns out "public figures" in the Le Pen headline refers to Elon Musk, Vladimir Putin, and Dan Hannan. None of whom are (democratically) elected politicians.

Difficult choices for who? The Prime Minister couldn't answer my question when I asked why he's choosing to make life harder for older people, children and disabled people instead of making the super-rich pay their fair share.

(1/3) It needs repeating: in 1994, Ukraine was persuaded to give up its nuclear weapons to Russia in return for the US, the UK, and Russia guaranteeing Ukraine’s sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.

Trump and JD Vance orchestrated the ambush on Zelenskyy. Russian state media was caught live-filming in the Oval Office, with no clearance, while Trump banned the Associated Press but personally invited Putin’s propagandists to broadcast the humiliation. A full-on setup! amp.cnn.com/cnn/2025/02/...

Unbelievable, after his treatment of Zelenskyy, Trump has been invited to a state visit to the UK. We should not be rolling out the red carpet to celebrate this man. Agree? Add your name to the petition today: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/no...
