One of the most shocking things I've ever seen on twitter 👇 This poem was written by someone sent to Dachau concentration camp for resisting the Nazis Thank goodness British people removed from power someone with so loathsome a moral compass as @EstherMcVey1 Truly abhorrent

These 2 Plymouth rioters have been convicted of 209 previous offences + they told the police they were rioting because immigrants cost the taxpayer too much money. Judge Linford made them work out how much their offending had cost Britain's taxpayers over the last 38 years.👇🏻

Just left @Paris2024 Olympic Games and I can say that (with apologies to my old home city of London), it was the best Olympic Games I’ve ever been to (and it was my 9th Games). Tremendous venues, atmosphere, culture, food and people. C’est Bon!

I do think we should get more credit for hosting France’s annual riots while they have the Olympics. Proper Entente cordiale

The Olympic torch has just passed by The Local's offices on the Bassin de la Villette on the way to the opening ceremony this evening. It's stopped raining too...! And the French trains are starting to run again... ! Let the games begin!

Bloody hell. Me and Victor Hugo have more than one thing in common! Aswell as being decent writers we are both big fans of the breathtaking Cirque de Gavarnie in the Pyrennees. I just discovered this World Heritage site today. Big Vic called it the "Colosseum of Nature". Spot on
