I don't know what that means. But I see no shame in disliking someone who has been vicious, cruel, treacherous, dishonest, and an all-round cunt. As for the narcissist he married, I'm not even going to start or I'll be typing all night.

Yes alive and now dead at 99

You really need to get better at sources. Some obscure Italian journalist posts a photo of a couple of paragraphs littered with casual errors like 'London Times' and Kohl being addressed as 'president'. Where has this alleged quote come from? Attributed to 'WH official pool reporting', whatever that is, but would that really look like this amateur rubbish that seems framed to make Biden look like an idiot?

Indeed and it is the hateful environment fostered by him and many other cretins on both sides of the pond that made the murder of Brianna Ghey, and many other trans people, possible. They all need to choke on the bile they spew ASAP; would make my reaction to Henry Kissinger's death look like my reaction to Ronnie Spector's by comparison.

This is the sort of nuance that is getting lost in the current level of political discourse The By-election victory last year convinced Sunak that people don't like Green policies and has doubled down on support for fossil fuels. Labour have always identified the Green Economy as something that could be an opportunity for UK businesses to lead in but they are wary of the red wall voters who may be turned off by specific green incentives that could push up costs in the short term (The Tata steel decision has also highlighted the danger on this). However the environment is important to a key sector of the Labour core vote and those votes could go to the Lib Dems or Green party which may cost Labour marginal seats I still trust Labour more than the Conservatives on the environment but am constantly disappointed by his messaging For example during the business meeting last week instead of blankly stating that Labour are the party of business he should have said that Labour will always support responsible buisnesses to thrive. Businesses have broken trust with the British people and need to rebuild it so that voters can see the benefit to Britain of British businesses succeeding in jobs, quality, tax revenue and fair pay. I hope the election is in May

Outlaw country icon Mojo Nixon dead at 66 while on the annual Outlaw Country Cruise

To be honest, quibbling over a figure with a basement-dwelling cretin is not really of interest when, frankly, the PM has behaved so disgustingly. The tragedy is this trans “joke” he cracked in Commons would normally have gone unreported, and it is only being seen as the gross, dehumanising, nasty little attempt at political point scoring it is because Brianna Ghey’s mother was watching in the chamber. Trans people are once again the butt of his jibes, while his vile party behind him all laugh openly in the face of the bereaved parents of a young trans murder victim, and indeed the countless other bereaved parents and victims of transphobic attacks. Sickening.

Joseph Chike Edozien dead at 98.

I can't vouch for what happened when Harry visited his father, but I agree with you on everything you said above. He and his wife are both vile people.

William Bulger, brother of James "Whitey" Bulger and notable Democratic politician in his own right, serving as President of the Massachusetts Senate for 7 years, turned 90 a few days ago. Seemingly never before mentioned on the forum.

Cuban old guard at an event a week ago: José Ramón Machado Ventura (93), Guillermo García Frías (95), Ramiro Valdés Menéndez (91), and Raul Castro (92). García Frías looked half-dead and froze for multiple minutes (there are videos online) the others still seem, unfortunately, very well for men in their 90s.

Sunak still refusing to apologise. I'm unclear on Sunak's position on what a woman is....no journo seems to be asking that question. Normally he is Mr Smiley when talking. He looks like someone has died in front of him. Of course, he'd probably say they were faking it, and it was all their fault they dropped to the ground in his way. Thousand quid bet on him losing the election.

Penn & Teller are on TV before the Superbowl but despite his recent health issues I think Teller looks better than Penn

Hang on I’ve just realised this happened you absolute monsters. What a banger, gone too soon.

Siphandone fails to appear again. I guess we won't see him anymore.

New single. Interviewed here and looks fine to me
