What a strange question to ask a retired law enforcement officer

I was going to remind you it says 'No Politics', but BLM is a political movement isn't it, so I won't
While busy picking the England cricket team, government has nothing at all to say about fans booing the England football team.
One is news, the other obviously isn't.

And that statue in Bristol wasn't their property, but it didn't stop them tearing it down without consulting the owners did it The elected Mayor seems quite happy with the outcome

Yet same level 3. If you've ever been through US Immigration...... none of it makes any sense.

Even The Queen's been cancelled by the warriors of woke now
And the populist dictatorship tells you what you can and cannot do on your own premises
That's after they've finished picking the England cricket team of course....

So we have been on level 3 since March and the 61 other countries have only just moved from 4 to 3 Nevertheless, they can go and we can't.

Always makes me chuckle to think of some poor bastard in a far flung country booking their first trip to London and picking Southend as an airport thinking that it must be very close to the city, looking on Google tk see that it's less than an hours drive......to then be stuck on the A127 for 3 hours after they land 🤣 Hence Ryanair using it An hour by train from Liverpool Street. When it used to commute into Southend, I'd often end up waking up tourists to stop them missing the airport station.

In the late 80's my year of apprentices from BCal did a trip to Southend to have a general look around. We were also allowed, for some strange reason to have a good clamber all over the Vulcan that was there at the time. Not sure if its the same one or not but it was a good day out. Pretty certain it's the same one https://avrovulcan.com/Although it's a commercial airport ( Ryanair etc) we get some pretty interesting stuff. UK and foreign military often use it for practice take off and landings.

That's why you're still working, and I don't have to.

Shame this isn't still flying - could could of done trips down there. We've got one here at Southend Airport. They do open days and runway blasts every now and again. Remember seeing my first at the Farnborough Air show in '69. Lovely, but not as good as the Lightnings doing vertical climbs

If I agree with the content it doesn't really matter to me who said it. I don't have to check to make sure they're wearing the right rosette first
Yep. I even agree with David Davis when he talks about cuts to overseas aid

They bypassed the EU's vax shambles and instead went for the Russian and Chinese one - I thought you previously said China was to blame for everything? And would you trust a vaccine manufactured by the country that dishes out Novichock with no regard? Anyway, holidays in the Falklands this year.

There's also a problem with lots of car led indicators. They can't be seen from the side. So if someone is waiting in a side road, you don't know whether they are going to pull out left or right

Fifa run world football, not European competitions such as the Champions League

He's a politician. They all do that
Apart from those that resign, and the 45 (or so) Tory rebels that will vote against the government's overseas aid proposals

The government has taken no end of flack for acting 'too late again' in the past, now it's critisised for acting too quickly. You can't have it both ways. The government takes flack for being inconsistent and incompetent

Rubbish - I don't believe people are that stupid. You overestimate the populist led public. So what was the point of having a green list?

It was moved from Turkey to Portugal as a 'safe' country. It only became 'unsafe' after we'd been there.
Yes Johnson ''sees which way the crowd is going and then runs to the front''.

I have zero sympathy for people who have gone ahead and booked foreign holidays who are now moaning. Except what is the point in having a 'traffic light' system? What is the point the government having a green list of safe countries, and then withdrawing the most popular one with 4 days notice? They have again led people into false expectations. And a coincidence travel to Portugal cancelled the week after two English football teams met there for the Champions League final?

Seeing how 'taking offence', or rather pretending you do, is now a national pastime I wouldn't be at all surprised if they started cashing in on it too. Next you'll be saying Scott of the Antarctic was a snowflake!
