Is the Mercedes Estate in the Greatest Grand Tour car or all time not a W124 rather than a W123? @MrJamesMay

This is terrible design, no manufacturer should be putting any driving function beyond page 1 of an on screen menu, and even that is 1000x worse than a button muscle memory will take you to without taking your eyes off the road

Ability to toggle fog lights with a physical control you can operate by muscle memory without eyes off road in poor driving conditions is a safety critical feature all cars should have. And one the Smart #1 buries several levels deep in a fiddly touchscreen. Progress, eh?

I wish I could forget ever hearing the National Anthem 'sung' by Damien Lewis. Awful!

Dear @cardiffcouncil I believe you may have removed some cars that you weren't supposed to. The notice wasn't served lawfully and the owner is quite unwell. I think you need to contact me and get this resolved. Please RT this. @LateBrakeShow

There are often calls to Nationalise key services. Can you imagine Liz Truss and her incompetent buffoons running the Railways, Gas and Electricity Supply etc. It would be a massive disaster.

The French Police have the correct approach to the superglue wielding anarchists.

Sorry, that doesn't work. French police swiftly remove Green activists who had glued themselves to the pavement in Paris 😆
Instead of flying Asylum Seekers to Rwanda, why not put them in rural communities and pay them to pick the crops that are rotting in the fields due to labour shortages?

Of course the 2 years of Covid restrictions, lock down etc had no effect on this... At least Mayor Briggs wasn't throwing illegal parties in his garden

I agree that many houses are inadequately inulsated, and that new builds should feature renewables as standard. I won't be gluing myself to the road to explain this, because I'm not stupid. Also...

I’m devastated for his family today and sad for comedy that we have lost one of the very best. Undisputed, undefeated, carrot in a box champion. I will miss him.
