Good morning.


Home Office urged to reunite Eritrean family separated as they boarded boat

The Home Office is under pressure to reunite a family of Eritrean asylum seekers after smugglers forced three children, the youngest aged just five, to cross the Channel on a small boat before their mother could get on board with them.

A Home Office spokesperson said:
............
“People smugglers are tearing apart families for profit, with no regard for the lives they put at risk. Their lack of humanity is despicable.”

You wonder how the 'spokesperson' can keep a straight face.

Learned ones? Confused MP watches Les Dawson on TV then says you would never get Les Dawson on TV these days (3,8).

Never forget, JH-B is just the most awful human being.

Had no idea who Andrew Tate even was until this latest Twitter eruption, and frankly wish it had stayed that way.

I refuse to find out who he is

I see Labour are targeting the r-w again, with their ludicrous 'social punishment' bollocks

[AnatolyKasparov]

Classic example of "read the article and not the jazzed up clickbaity headline", it appears.

And yes, ASBOs were a good thing on the whole.

[refitman]

Were ASBOs actually a good thing? They were very good at demonising and targeting the least well off in society. If Labour actually wanted to do something about 'petty crime', they would talk about addressing the causes of it. Nah, this is just a sop to the minority right wing contingent that they're dead-set on winning over, at the expense of the majority of UK society.

Anyway......Pele.

Forget about Ronaldo (either of them) or Messi or even Maradona, he was the genuine greatest ever. The nearest football has ever had to a Bradman.
