What a lovely day out for you GM, was it a surprise ?   It's many years since I was in Edinburgh, a lovely city.

Quote from: JBR on May 14, 2026, 10:30:53 PMI'd like to think that the coppers on the ground want to do the right thing at the right time.
The impression I get is that the coppers at the top are politically biased.  Either that, or they are under the thumb of the Labour government.
This country desperately needs a complete turn around.

The Crown Prosecution Service has issued new legal guidance on the use of offensive banners , slogans chants or symbols  ahead of the planned protests in London this weekend .
This apparently is a response to the  increase in hate crime attacks .


Well blow me down .
Have they just noticed ?
The vile hate marches that have been plaguing the country for the last two plus years .
The attacks on Jewish citizens ?

Why haven't they issued these guidelines before ?
What a coincidence that Unite the Kingdom marches tomorrow .
Two tier policing at its finest .

Quote from: CHF on Yesterday at 11:24:06 AMHe is a convicted felon just for starters.
Threatens other countries, Canada, and Greenland.
Started a war he can't finish and thinks he rules the world.

He is either evil or deranged.
If he weren't so dangerous, he'd be a laughingstock.

Do you know what his felony consists of ?
It wasn't a heinous crime if indeed it was a crime at all .
Trump has always protested his innocence

The case revolved around $130,000 in "hush money" payments made to adult film star Stormy Daniels prior to the 2016 election to keep an alleged affair quiet. Falsifying internal business records to conceal this payment led a New York jury to find him guilty on all 34 counts.
Paying hush money in these circumstances is not actually a crime
Falsifying business records is generally considered a " misdemeanour "
The judge gave him no sentence at all.
Just a thought our Ange has just been absolved by HMRC of not paying £40,000 in stamp duty .
Numerous others have fiddled their expenses .
Politicians are generally not as pure as the driven snow .

Hey Scrumps, have you gone off to bed?
Weren't you doing the new line instead?

Plumber mended my dripping tap today.  
Going to come back and do the rusty radiator knob next week.

My cleaners were here this morning, their chat and good humour make my day!

Thanks, Klon. 

We struggle to find a first line
Mups got in first this time
I'll be first next time-alright!!
Even if I have to stay up all night
So Scrumpy, stay off the wine! 🍷
