To be fair, there’s only so much of seeing rich right-wing people calling each other “socialists” that one person can take.

The Tory leadership contest seems to consist of the contenders trying to be more anti-Europe, transphobic and economically right-wing than each other. Also, we’re having a major heatwave tomorrow where temperatures are forecast to reach an unprecedented 40 degrees in parts of Britain, and Tory...

A sitting member of the House of Lords (and former MP and MEP), everyone. Perfectly normal country.

Blame the EU for record temperatures while also claiming that belief climate change is “woke” and that the leftover EU environmental laws are crippling the economy.

That was mostly Brexiteers misrepresenting the issues with Catalonia. There wouldn’t be any major issue with Scotland being a candidate member state as long as it didn’t unilaterally secede and cause s big legal mess.

That site’s unofficial and out of date in some of its information, but I see what you mean. TBH, anyone here who can get Irish citizenship, that’s an alternative route into the UK – Ireland’s criteria for getting citizenship by descent is far easier to match than Britain’s, and the UK treats...

To nobody’a surprise…

Well, that’s a unique version of the Uncle Junior defence.
