Cabbie (i always indicate). Shit darts player. Lost chip on shoulder decades ago. Waving your country's flag does not put food on your table.

Out and about on a Saturday morning, seeing window cleaners up first thing getting on with the job. Plumbers and electricians starting work. Cafe owners, opening for a busy day. Publicans, preparing for the weekend Christmas rush.
Such a brutal contrast to the army of jumped-up little civil servants and politicians in Whitehall who have already clocked off the Christmas - the ones who implement the tax, devise the nonsense regulations, make the life of small business owners absolute hell.
They don't care about dividend tax rises, or VAT thresholds, or IR35, or mountains of bullshit HR rules.
They don't understand, they don't care.
Comfortable work environments, absolutely zero accountability, total job security, great pensions, no targets. Nobody EVER gets fired. The out of office reply in regular use, of course.
Work from home a few days a week. Maybe head in for drinks once a week, but that's at a stretch. Don't even try and contact them past 15.00 on a Thursday.
These busy little bureaucrats have embedded themselves into the system, building it so that their own pompous role seems irreplaceable.
Honestly we need to drag these people into the real world. The world of Saturday morning work. Weekend work. ANY WORK.
Freeloaders gliding through life on the back of productive Britain.
I'm with the cafe owner. The publican. The window cleaner. The plumber. The electrician.
THEY deserve our respect and our gratitude.
They're the ones who make this country work, not the pretentious empire-building desk-jockey in central London.
A total reset is required.

“I heard you want your country back. Ha. Shut the f*** up” angrily yells Vylan, fresh from calling for “death to the IDF”, to a chanting crowd of white middle-class British liberals excitedly waving their foreign flags. All rather depressing, isn’t it?
I note the intense border security at Glastonbury, which far outstrips that of Dover’s. Build bridges, not walls, they cry - apart from around their own filthy little sanctuary.
How so very progressive of them, flying their Palestinian flags - they must all feel so very proud of themselves. Sipping their £8 iced lattes, posting on tiktok from the newest iphone. Really revolutionary stuff.
A fatal blow struck against the capitalist system. Well done, everyone.
All broadcast live on the BBC, our ‘national’ broadcaster. Fantastic work from them, as usual.
None of this is Britain. Real Britain. Actual Britain. Decent Britain.
Not the Britain built by generations of hardworking, patriotic British men and women.
Who quite frankly, have had enough. I know I have.
We will all be closely watching, as Lucy Connolly rots in jail, what action the police will take against this revolting man - the precedent has been set.
So, yes Mr Vylan. You heard correctly, we do want our country back.
But no. We will definitely not "shut the fuck up".
Learn how to sing, take a shower and sod off.

Everything wrong with this country can be explained by the fact the leader of our country can stand up and outright lie and not be challenged or held to account. The SNP cut the winter fuel payment in Scotland, no ifs or buts. THEY CANCELLED IT NOT LABOUR. so sick of the lies.
John Swinney@JohnSwinney
Labour have cut the winter fuel payment for pensioners, the SNP is restoring it. My government will always be on your side.
