They say his fingers are so fat that the second most popular search on Google on his computer is for 'pron'.

German police are busy all day long with protecting Christmas markets against cultural enrichment!

Are you really sure that was from the Guardian, I thought it was more likely a “News Thump” publication!

The security services can only work on information passed to them and as jihadists station themselves in Muslim areas it can only be other followers of the religion of peace that grass them up.
Great for us infidels.

Report into MI5/Police intelligence-handling reviews
The Home Secretary has today published my report (submitted to her on 2 November) into the internal reviews by MI5 and Counter-Terrorism Police of their handling of intelligence prior to this year’s terrorist attacks at Westminster, Manchester Arena, London Bridge and Finsbury Park.

Size wise Howard that looks to be even too big for Prescott, unless it’s a trick of the light?
Love to see him wear it at PMQ’s though!

At a time when we think of various charities and those less fortunate than ourselves, personally I'm thinking of Save the Children International.
(CEO of which Helle Thorning-Schmidt the wife of Stephen Kinnock MP who 'earned' $257,358.75 in 2016 That's $5000 a WEEK)

Most of the big charities have a high paid CEO and plush offices with a tiny percentage of revenue going on the cause. The British Heart Foundation are one of the worst for this and I always think of that when I see volunteers at our local shop hump heavy furniture around.
