One of the very few I had respect for has passed away, Paddy Ashdown.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-46662546

I did not agree with all he stood for but I did respect him as he did not act like that shower we have. A better class of politician whom had better standards.

Kettle crisps have issued a warning they could be moving aboard due to Brexit. I say good, I hope all the crisps cakes biscuits chocolate and all the rest can sod off. Britain's are to fat, the sooner we get back to a veg diet the better we all be.

Source SKY News. Sorry no links at the time of posting.

About time sugar was outlawed its a killer like cigarettes.

May and Corbyn deliver Christmas messages.

Quote:
Theresa May has used her Christmas message to praise the work of the Armed Forces, particularly in Syria and after the nerve agent attack in Salisbury.

The PM said UK forces had "continued to demonstrate why you are the finest in the world".

Meanwhile, Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn paid tribute to those who emulate the Good Samaritan in his Christmas message.

He drew on the Christian parable to applaud those who help others.

STEED's end of the year message to Parliament.

GET BACK TO WORK YOU LOT BREXIT IS STILL A MESS.

It is disgraceful this lot sod off on holiday leaving the country in a mess. You lot are a sham who do not deserve our vote. This year yet again you have shown what a disgrace you are, acting like out of control kinda garden kids and spoiled little brats. You clearly do not put us the voter first who elected you as you are way to busy feathering your nests with golden eggs.

Do I see any hope for 2019?........NO I DO NOT!

Quote:
Home Secretary Sajid Javid has defended highlighting the ethnicity of some grooming gangs.

The home secretary faced criticism for a tweet earlier this year referring to "sick Asian paedophiles".

But speaking on BBC Radio 4 Today, Mr Javid - who has Pakistani heritage - said that ignoring the ethnicity of abusers gives "oxygen" to extremists.

Tough and brave words Sajid but in the meantime....prepare fo incoming.

I'd be having far greater security concerns over this...

Quote:
The Defence Secretary has reportedly said he has "very deep concerns" about Chinese firm Huawei being involved in upgrading the UK's mobile network.

Gavin Williamson's comments - reported by the Times - came after some nations restricted use of the firm's products in 5G networks over security concerns.

MI6's head recently said Britain faced decisions on Chinese ownership of tech.

The UK says China is behind hackers targeting commercial secrets. Huawei denies any link to the Chinese state.

Quote:
Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn has urged the prime minister to cut short MPs' Christmas break to allow for an earlier vote on her Brexit deal.

MPs are due back in the Commons on 7 January, and Theresa May has said the vote on the EU withdrawal agreement will take place the following week.

However, in an interview with the Independent website, Mr Corbyn said it must happen "as soon as possible".

A Downing Street source told the Press Association it was a "silly demand".
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-46697749
Why does he continue in this pathetic pointless manner when he doesn't have the gonads to push for a Parliamentary vote of no confidence in the government?
