God Damn!!! Bedroom attire only methinks... If my missus had ever tried going out in something like that in public I reckon I might have ended up getting in a few punch ups..

3 dead and many injured as a train de-railed in the Alps... The train was heading northwards to Munich at around 12.15pm today (Friday) when several carriages rolled off the tracks in the Burgrain district of Loisachauen, near the resort town of Garmisch-Partenkirchen. Local press BR24 is reporting that a rescue operation has begun. A spokesperson for the Garmisch-Partenkirchen district office told local outlets a total of 60 people were being treated with injuries - of which sixteen had been deemed serious. Federal police said they had not yet established why the train had derailed, but BR24, a Bavarian news site, said that a large contingent of students may have been travelling because of the holidays.

On that we can probably agree, He would use it to try and garner some sympathy about how the plebs don't understand how hard it is to run the country and that he is so misunderstood but on the rest we will have to agree to disagree.. I think he knows exactly how people will take it but his sense of entitlement means he feels he can just brush aside any criticism from any quarter regardless if that's the house of commons opposition/ media or indeed the public.. What's important to him is that he holds on to his power by any means possible.. be that his fingertips or the skin of his teeth.. The only time he does not enjoy it is when he is under intense scrutiny.. when he is put on the spot and has no answer or has to be truthful about something that's why he tries to avoid debates or interviews where it's just him and even when caught out he uses deflection or misleads to wriggle out of situations.. He then surrounds himself with toadies and boot lickers that trot out the same old shit and stick up for him knowing full well that if he falls they all fall, total self preservation from top to bottom.. Fallout and anger from decisions they make is just a storm to be ridden until a safe port is found and things calm down.. sadly for him the storm is still raging and even sadder for us it's still not enough to send him down along with his ship of fools.. This was from Max Hastings back in 2019 I have known Johnson since the 1980s, when I edited the Daily Telegraph and he was our flamboyant Brussels correspondent. I have argued for a decade that, while he is a brilliant entertainer who made a popular maître d’ for London as its mayor, he is unfit for national office, because it seems he cares for no interest save his own fame and gratification. A few admirers assert that, in office, Johnson will reveal an accession of wisdom and responsibility that have hitherto eluded him, not least as foreign secretary. This seems unlikely, as the weekend’s stories emphasised. Dignity still matters in public office, and Johnson will never have it. Yet his graver vice is cowardice, reflected in a willingness to tell any audience, whatever he thinks most likely to please, heedless of the inevitability of its contradiction an hour later. Like many showy personalities, he is of weak character. I recently suggested to a radio audience that he supposes himself to be Winston Churchill, while in reality being closer to Alan Partridge.

Funny but things like that would never hurt someone like Johnson.. He has a rhinos skin that allows him to ride roughshod over others feelings.. It probably amuses him to a degree after all a few boos will never get him removed by the lower orders, Us the riff raff need to up our game... If he had about 100 eggs tossed in his direction every time he was out in public then that probably would piss him off... You have to inconvenience a man like Johnson to get a reaction then his true nature is revealed..

That's because it IS a random picture, as stated in my opening line... But yes... 2 Mules for Sister Sarah Thought the oldies might get it first...

Can anyone name what the film title is from this random picture???

Agreed... you need to write to the mayor of Leicester and get him/her to sort it out...

Also not to rub it in or anything @Tommy but the friendship between Reading & Dusseldorf was founded on acts of kindness where Leicester are twinned with 6 other cities that were only based on their compatibility with Population, Ethnicity and Employment sectors which is about as boring as it gets...

He is just upset @Tommy because Leicester are twinned with Krefeld which sounds far less glamorous...

The friendship started when the Mayor of Reading, Phoebe Cusden, answered a call from the Royal Berkshire Regiment, then occupying Düsseldorf, for help for people who were hungry and homeless following the war. She sent help, visited Düsseldorf, and invited six children to stay.

And public transport....

About fucking time....

The amazing amount of work this suspension gets through to keep the car as stable as possible... Helicopter crew keeping a steady eye on the rally car - 9GAG

I remember going and having to rent out some load of old rubbish because they didn't have the film you wanted.. Also back in the day my missus kept asking me to rent 'Ghost' and when I had a look at the back it looked like a right sloppy waste of time so I would go home with something else for weeks and pretend they didn't have it.. One Friday night she decided to come with me and it was there and I thought no ducking out of this one and to my surprise it was a pretty decent film.. The moral of the story is read what the film 'is actually about' rather than looking just looking at the pictures and making a call on that...

You can have your statue back... Chelsea striker Romelu Lukaku has reportedly agreed upon a salary with Inter Milan ahead of a potential loan return to Serie A this summer as the Blues issue a short deadline to the Belgian's agent to get the deal wrapped up. football.london understands Lukaku has asked his lawyer to check the possibility of a possible return to the San Siro, less than 12 months after making the move from Milan to London. Regardless of who is recruited to try and break the long-standing number 9 curse that has haunted many strikers in the past, Boehly and the Chelsea board have seemingly made their stance clear on what Inter Milan must do imminently to seal a deal for the Belgian. As well as agreeing to a £6.3million salary with the Nerazzurri which would mean a £3.9m reduction in what Lukaku has been earning at Chelsea this season (£10.2m), his new agents have been given an ultimatum of 15 days to close this transfer operation as the Blues look for a swift solution to this issue.

That was quick.. I have only just seen it... A male teacher opened his laptop on the big screen in front of about 60 odd students and it started to play a video of a naked girl in several poses and then him having sex with her... The students were cracking up and then he came rushing in trying to stop it but it took him a while..
