Knackered due to a career spent denying being a functioning adult, whilst hiding from enforced responsibilities. Retired as a result of said knackeredness

Probably watching cricket.

#Remembrance I've bought my Poppy Pin. I'll get a few more for different jackets in the next few days. I wear two pins- the Poppy & miniature French parachute wings from my French Para Course in 1988. Proud of both. No need to weaponise my patriotism.

On July 3,2024 I had my knees replaced. Last week, I had my left hip replaced & 4 inches of metal put in to.my femur. Today, I left critical care. I'm beginning to see some light at the end of the tunnel

Laurence Fox is one other candidates in Clacton. Watching him get stiffed by a bloke with a bin on his head is just going to be a bonus.

Rod Liddle has died. I'm frankly amazed at the people telling us he was a great man, and a respected journalist. Personally, I find it difficult to respect a man who wrote this

This is an absolute delight to listen to, and worth 5 minutes of anyone's time. A 94-year-old Clacton resident schools Reform UK Cllr Justin Jay out canvassing for Farage. Jay is not the brightest, claiming Farage is paying the £250k election costs, which of course is a lie.

I feel sad for the #England team, but they did something most men my age struggle with, and made it to a semi.

Two options. He's going to play the victim, double down & whine about press intrusion OR he's going to resign as Chief Executive of Reform. Either way, 100 years ago he'd have been in jail for treason. Farage is an out and out criminal & traitor
I will make a statement on my future in public life at 2pm.

My great grandfather. A pre war regular, served at Mons , the Somme wounded & gassed at Passchendale. Became a pacifist in WW2. His medals, paybook from his enlistment in 1910, & desk he made as a 14 year old. All precious to me #somme110

His eldest son, my grandad, married my grandma, the daughter of a German Jewish WW1 Veteran in 1938 who escaped to Britain. Both Great Grandads served as ambulance volunteers in WW2 - they'd seen their share of war & both lost their wives in the Spanish Flu of 1919

#MondayMotivation #Churchill I imagine he said this, or something similar, at some point.

My dad. With me on a beach in 1970, and with my sister in the garden of our family home in 1983. She died in 2010, dad in 2019. I miss them both, but seeing Father's Day posts made it tougher.

Pretty much. Last night was nothing to do with protest, all to do with using protest as an excuse for racist violence
Loyalists now attacking the homes of vulnerable minorities who had nothing to do with last night's horror. This should come as no surprise as they regularly do this to Catholics in mixed areas. The nationalist people in the six counties should have nothing to do with this mob.

I've been called a "-traitor" because I don't agree with Reform/Restore. I served both Labour & Tory governments. Went to countries where I didn't speak their language for a variety of reasons. Then worked in the public legal system for decades. Shot, blown up, stabbed.

Didn't complain, accepted it as part of what I signed up to do. I didn't sign up to be governed by men financed by Russia. Out of me and them, I know who's on the side of this country. It's not Farage

Robert Kenyon standing in Makerfield - so far so average. Why aren't #Reform putting up Zia Yusuf? Because Kenyon is disposable, & they don't want to risk their cash cow not getting a seat. Shadow Home Secretary my hairy arse....

Matt Styler, one of the men charged with Assault By Beating of an Emergency Worker has a somewhat interesting past, you could say a grudge against the police. #FarageRioters Man charged with firearms offences after weapons seized in Gosport share.google/dwVIgBahgFznbxf…
