The fact that someone as dishonest and hypocritical as Robert Jenrick was not long ago shamed out of public life is a damning indictment of the state of politics and media in the UK www.adambienkov.co.uk/p/robert-jen...

Ljinders to Man City is a v strange move. He is in a no win situation. As for the words about “family” & “togetherness” in his book, they now ring hollow. Clearly the only thing that matters to Ljinders is money. He speaks about “loyalty” but has none. It’s just a term to throw around & sound good.

Oh dear.Thought all the clowns stayed on X. Poor lad not taking a simple questioning of his musings v well. Just the sort of narrow-mindedness algorithms tend to bring out in ppl. The irony of calling me a troll! 😂 If it was not for social media such vacuous arguments would not see the light of day.

Lionel Barber, "Boris Johnson is liberated having had his fourth child so he has got a bit more time on his hands perhaps" Surely after a new baby a father would want to spend more time with the baby? 🤷‍♂️ Also, this isn't Johnson's fourth child, it's his ninth
