2017 I was joking around saying I was going to be PM, who would have thought that I’d have my eyes on the capital instead. I and 🫵🏼 know exactly what needs to be done! What is the pull back to serve my country that taunts me so? It’s definitely the people… I hear you loud and clear 🫡🇬🇧

Starmer humiliated as new poll shows unprecedented collapse in support for the Labour Government. They are seen as 'incompetent', 'dishonest', and 'unsuccessful'. Elected on lies and hated in office, Starmer is a disaster. express.co.uk/news/politics/…

It is Lancashire Day. The 47th (Lancashire) Regiment of Foot was raised in Scotland in 1741 & fought against the Jacobites in the '45. In the Peninsular War, the 2nd Battalion of the 47th Regt, was sent to Gibraltar in 1809 & to Portugal in 1811. The battalion took part in the battles of Barrosa Vitoria, Nive & Bayonne as well as the sieges of Tarifa & San Sebastián.

The fact every English man doesn't have a Lee Enfield is a crime. They should handed out with every birth certificate.

Tune in to @BBCOne at 9pm for the Royal British Legion #FestivalOfRemembrance as we come together to commemorate our Armed Forces and those who have made the ultimate sacrifice to protect our way of life. Who will you be thinking of as you watch this evening? 1/2
Interior of the Royal Albert Hall during the staging of the Festival of Remembrance 2023. People are seated around the central floor of the Royal Albert Hall under dimmed lights. Above the stage is a large red poppy installation illuminated in red. Either side of this are screens displaying a single lit candle. On the floor of the Royal ALbert Hall serving members of the Armed Forces are stood to attention in front of a ceremonial drumhead.

Any trick-or-treaters who knock on the factory door tonight will be thrown into the blending machine. It's like in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, but instead of being shrunk or turned into a blueberry, you get portioned into 10,000 tea bags and sold in Tesco.
