When people think Farage and his ideas are unique Here is the desperate truth

Anyone interested in the history of our country I can highly recommend this superb account of the pivotal moment in its development. What is striking is how much disliked we were even then.

Glastonbury next week. We’re not playing this year, but here’s Jobseeker from Glastonbury 2015. 10 years ago?! Fucking mad! Our set ended up being the second most watched on iPlayer after the Dalai Lama. Surreal. Hated it at the time but looking back it feels like a massive moment for us.

Just got my date for my kidney removal. This coming Sunday. I 'green told I will need short 6/8 wks recovery. Just found the Christmas bell to summon my wife with. "I need the channel changing love"

Watching the second State Of Origin match. Great game in appalling conditions. But, how can you eye gouge someone in both eyes in front of the ref and clear on the replay and only get put on repor? Same a few minutes later, this time a clear elbow to the face. Both NSW players.

No one has ever said it better

I am horrified and heartbroken by the news that two elected officials in Minnesota were shot in what Gov. Walz said was a politically motivated attack. We’ve now learned that former House Speaker Melissa Hortman and her husband were killed.
