KK draws a blank in his search for jumbo hot dog rolls... Sorry mate, there was a sudden rush on them after the anal sex thread, can I tempt you with a couple of baps?

The EDF Fantasy League is up and running too, I automatically joined it when I auto-selected a team...

Nice try, yet more deflectionary tactics, none of which detract from your hypocrisy...

If the UK wants to strike a deal with the French for them to prevent smugglers from exploiting asylum seekers crossing the Channel, then you can bet your bottom Euro that the French will ask for fishing rights to be part of that deal. And when it comes to OUR fishing waters Mr Been, you might want to familiarise yourself with the fact that UK fishermen sold a lot of their quotas to foreign ownership, especially England which is now well over 50% foreign owned. You can't force people to sell them back despite what the Express may have told you... https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/52420116

Nice try at moving the goalposts again, fails to detract from the point I made that complaining that the Guardian shows a lack of balance, when you show none yourself, does come across as a tad hypocritical. As for trolling itself, I don't mind it as it can sometimes be subjectively clever and witty, make a valid point, so shouldn't be seen exclusively as a negative thing. > I actively read the Guardian to the extent I would > classify myself a 'Guardian reader'..am I also > trolling myself?..... Of course you do, how else would you come up with your 'ammunition'?...

He's been told to save his resignation for the upcoming 'back-to-school' fiasco...

Lots of reasons for someone to cough, hay fever for one this time of year, and as for ''red in the face and sweating'', weren't we in the middle of a heatwave two weeks ago? Makes me wonder why we bother with the NHS when we have the likes of Mr Been among us who can diagnose from afar...

Exactly snowy, the US and NZ constitutions and election rules are completely different, NZ's, and I believe the UK's too, allows for delaying an election, the US's doesn't, even leading Republicans have come out and said the election can't be delayed, come Jan '21 Trump will stop being the US president unless he wins the Nov election. Even if the election was somehow delayed Trump couldn't remain President, yet he want's to do both. Recently he's spoke about remaining President beyond the fixed 2 terms, whereas genuinely successful Presidents have had to step down after their second term because that's what's required constitutionally. The man is deranged, have you read his 'tribute' to his recently deceased bother, it's all about him, quite extraordinary. Do you seriously think Trump would ask for a delay if he was polling 60+% like Ardern currently is? Ardern would win a landslide, she's clearly putting the health of the country before politics. The two countries have had completely different strategies in dealing with Covid, NZ wanted to hit the virus 'hard and early' by having a total lockdown, which until this recent outbreak (minuscule compared to the US's daily rate of cases) was extremely successful compared to most countries. Delaying the election by a month is a continuation of this strategy and hopefully will reap similar results. Whereas with the US there has been no coherent strategy, no total lockdown, so what would delaying the US election actually achieve apart from Trump trying to avoid an election defeat? As usual it's about Trump putting himself before country, just as he always has...

01337 is Ladybank in Scotland, this was 01775 (Spalding). Curious to know why leave a message in a foreign language, is the scam that you are charged the earth for answering the call?...

Had a strange call earlier to my mobile, not recognising the landline number I didn't answer the call thinking it was someone probably selling/scammimg etc, then Googled the code, it was a Spalding (Lincs) number, while doing that I got an alert to say a voicemail message had been left, then listened to what sounded like a 20sec message in Chinese. All very odd...

Have I Got News For You, satirical show... As the government faces mounting criticism for its handling of the A-level results fiasco, Test and Trace staff are asked to focus their attentions on trying to locate Boris Johnson.

Prime Ministers invariably shape their governments in their own image. This blustering, bumbling amateurishness is not temporary. It will go on as long as Johnson is in No 10.

The SD holiday was only announced a month ago, a sale on average take 2-3 months to complete, therefore there's been no time for the effects to filter down as per normal i.e. increased sales = house prices going up. This is estate agents, and perhaps sellers too, seeing an opportunity to artificially put up prices knowing that buyers potentially have some extra cash to play with by not having to pay SD...

Sell your own place and rent for a while, prices likely to fall over coming 12 months or more...

Well done to your parents Kerryn, it's a lovely holiday property, sympathetically restored with modern touches. Good luck with the business...

The boat people you referred to are economic migrants who probably have more money in their pockets than you or I. This post was brought to you by Keano Productions - Embarrassing himself since June 2016...
