Prevailing winds tho - you want to live west to avoid the fallout.

no cars have moved from level 2 in over an hour and to top it all I’m running out of petrol

Turn your fucking engine off then you silly cunt!

Reading traffic is always a disgrace

God knows where this belongs but Youtube had a bit of a glitch this evening and I thought the results might tickle us web-watchers. Redirect as appropriate:

usual suspects seem awfully quiet about the fact that boris "i asked the guys at porton down (if the nerve agent came from russia) and they said no doubt" johnson has been shown, once again, to be a barefaced fucking liar following the assessment that the nerve agent used in the recent assassination attempt is of unknown origin.

prince phillip is having a hip op, tho.

Wondered why my street was cordoned off this morning! They're tough as nails round here!

Boris aint going nowhere. Much as I'd like him to.

.

Yeah but there are much bigger issues in politics right now.

Corbyn celebrated a Jewish festival with Jewish people who have opinions which are different to other Jewish people's. That's disgusting.

worse than hitler etc.

Got a link?

Ah don't worry found it.

I’m realistic enough to know Russia are prime prime suspect but somewhere Putin is rolling on the floor laughing at this balls up and deleted tweets.

Fingers crossed the person arrested is an immigrant of some description, in the hope that it may cause the Mail and Express to implode.

Hah yeah. What a shambles.

There's some sort of official halfway house at the bottom of the street where there seems to be a constant stream of scooters / cars doing drop offs. Don't think they're eating lots of takeaway. Legalise drugs. I bet that's most of the problem here.

That's quite a black and white characterisation of a grey topic.

The deleted tweet bugs me. As does the sloppy incompetence.

Meanwhile, Sky News quotes an unnamed source in the Foreign Office who said Mr Johnson “misspoke”.

they think you're a fucking idiot and if you vote for these blithering fools, you probably are. a useful one at that.

Interesting how quickly the conversation has swung to letting Russia off the hook because Boris is a blithering idiot.

Who else is likely to be deploying a nerve agent against a Russian former spy, exactly?
