A young single parent got an urgent referral to hospital as she's found a lump, didn't get to her appt, because she couldn't afford the parking when she arrived, so left. Too embarrassed to ask my daughter to quickly transfer a few bob. This is so wrong. There should be no charge for parking.

Jeremy Clarkson and Nigel Farage - cos-playing farmers.

Greetings UK farmers!!

The man on the left bought a farm to avoid tax, and helped to push up land prices as a result.
The man on the right was a prime mover of Brexit - a major drain on the farming economy.

They are not your friends.

Thanks! I do love a bagel. I think I can find Malt here in France. I used to eat that by the spoonful when I was growing up in London... lovely stuff!

If you are a socialist and support people, not greedy billionaires, mega corporations and their ever increasing profits which are stolen from you.

RT this and find some more friends.

James' podcast interviews are pretty good and well worth a listen

I don't think 🌹 stood a chance after the election. The FR media were down on them like a ton of bricks for literally every breath the new Govt took. I've never seen anything like this.

Anyone who thinks the European Community was only about trade, should watch this film from 1962.

Is it used often? Will I get a weird look if I introduce it into my afternoon dog walk with my French friend?!

Trafalgar Sq used to be an island until part of it was pedestrianised in front of the National Gallery. I remember the furore over that too - oh but the taxis! the buses! traffic flow!

I've traipsed along Oxford Street since I was dragged along as a toddler in the 60s, when mum loved to browse in Dickens and Jones (couldn't afford anything!) And it's always cried out to be pedestrianised.

Haha, yes, for the lovely donkeys. But any move that helps the nations health and the pressure on NHS is good for me 🫏

So small-minded of them. My own d-in law moved to UK after she married my son (9 years ago) She is perfectly fluent in English, held a well paid job in London (now a young mum) and is of last year a Brit herself (and voted, imo for the right party in July!)

How far below the surface was it found? Unbelievable it's in such good shape

I'm no legal bod but if the min living wage of cΒ£20k which govt believe a Brit national can live on & marry a fellow Brit, why is the income bar for a spousal visa set so high? Spouse also has to financially contribute to NHS, meet language level and other criteria (all fair enough) Makes no sense πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ
