My cousin is an RNLI Coxswain. His brothers have been RNLI volunteers. He goes out into the North Atlantic if ANYONE is in trouble. The 'R' in RNLI stands for Royal. I'm no royalist, but I think King Charles should ring Farage and tell him to F*** Off. #RNLI #FarageRiots #Rerorm #Morons

In his book 'How to Launder Money', Posh George, the Farage aide at the heart of Reform's latest controversy, has a chapter on 'The Art of the Bribe' He and his co-author recommend small gifts (explainable as “a mistake of overexuberance in friendship”) and "Paying some of the target’s expenses”

Way back in 2006 I helped a young Essex band achieve chart success. I hear today that Joe Murphy has passed away. A lovely funny, easy going guy, I'll remember all the gigs, the trip to Holland and at this World Cup time, here's 'Stand Up For England' just for Joe. #koopa youtu.be/aiom1VuEdac?...

I will always regret not seeing these guys. Never happen now, of course, since the sad death of Roachie. Give it a spin and see what you think. thewreckup.bandcamp.com/album/ep-1-2
