One down; Jon Stewart, Trevor Noah, Ronnie Cheng, Desi Lydic (corr!), Jordan Klepper next. Jimmy Kimmel has gone for good family reasons, but you can bet he will not be able to return.

That all ends next May! Now I wonder, of all those named in the OP, who has assets, properties and businesses which are so "leveraged" that a reduction in interest rates would be a great advantage?

Accusing those with whom you have political differences, of not being "patriotic", of not "loving their country", of not being a "real Brit" or citizen of whatever country is invariably a tactic of those who wish to see political dissent and opposition repressed. I am a patriot, and have served my country. I have formed opinions on what is good for Britain, and they differ very much from yours, and at the other end of the political spectrum from others on this forum. Oscar Wilde (I think) it was who said that patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel. I don't think it is, until it is reserved exclusively for those whose political leanings you share.

Crueler even than the slaughter, rapes and infanticide of 7 October 2023? The people of Gaza are suffering because of the way Hamas acted on that day, and the way in which they (Hamas) continue to operate and attempt to control every aspect of the civilians lives.

What, like: "My name is Bogface, I am a ponce, I smooth brylcream all over my bonce, When I'm not walking, talking or squawking, I'm shopping down at Austin Reid!" Quite takes me back! Then there was: "My name is Slobbo, I'm head of this place, The way that I run it is a <deleted> disgrace, Outside my office you'll know when I'm in, All you can hear is Boltie where's the gin! The headmaster's secretary was a Miss Bolton.

Or, just possibly some Westerners who don't like "house music" and "Ibiza bangers" being played relentlessly at high volumes?

A well balanced appraisal, must have a chip on both shoulders!

In his defence, Epstein didn't wear a <deleted> silly hat! There are many things to be said about Epstein, his antics and those who visited him there. Some proven, in the public domain, some alleged, and it would appear some the subject of an energetic cover up operation. Of all the facts and rumours swirling around, now they are joined by the rantings of this failed politician turned shock jockey! If Jesus Christ himself returns, Gorgeous George Galloway will produce conclusive proof that he is a Mossad agent, and has been since AD 33! He should have stuck to mincing around the set of "Big Brother" in a cat costume meowing - it was the most sense he has ever made!

Even if you don't like dogs ( I do, have four and am on good terms with all the local dogs) that was a particularly vile thing to do. Bastard deserves a good shoeing.

Given the age profile of many on this forum who quite like genres such as Abba and Taylor Swift you may get the response you deserve!

The Dutch may disagree with you, seeing as how it was the Canadians who fought (and died) to liberate them; also the Danes, who were saved from Soviet occupation in 1945 by the rapid deployment of the Canadian Airborne Division to thwart their plans to move from the Elbe through Schleswig Holstein and into Denmark. One may also consider the banality(?) of Canada in sending its young men and women to fight and die (158 of them) in the American led campaign in Afghanistan.

I think I follow - economystery has always been a gap in my education but that makes sense.

Or in fact anything which takes the heat of Mr Trump. I wonder if he will be able to wriggle free of this particular hook?

"Defender of The Faith", (in Latin "Fidei Defensor") was an honourific title given to King Henry VIII by Pope Leo X, in recognition for his opposition to the teachings of Martin Luther. Given Henry's subsequent rejection of the Catholic Faith, which has been maintained at least officially by English and then British Monarchs since (with the exception of Queen Mary between 1553 and 1558) , perhaps it is rather an empty title, particularly if you are using it to accuse the Monarch of being a Traitor!

I understand that it was established in court about a year ago that he was anything but huuuge!😊
