    Government spending £8 million on portraits of the King for schools, police stations and council offices

    A trap that many Republicans fall through is the mistaken belief that a Presidency would be cheaper. In reality, anything Royal would simply become Presidental. The one difference would be an elected office, but what if the result is similar to the Brexit vote? Endless arguments about validity?

    Government spending £8 million on portraits of the King for schools, police stations and council offices

    Would the same amount of bile be directed at a Presidental picture? Remember the golden rule, they who have the gold make the rules!

    Displayed calories on menus

    I never look at them, but I generally find the bigger the calorie count the tastier the food.

    Any thoughts on Gary Lineker’s tweets?

    Any thoughts on Gary Lineker’s tweets?

    I do think the BBC have made a rod for their backs. Lineker will feel emboldened, and feel he can now say much more on twitter, and it will give weight to those demanding the licence fee be abolished.

    Nicola Sturgeon to resign as First Minister of Scotland, Humza Yousaf elected as new First Minister.

    Your posts show a remarkable lack of understanding about the politics of N Ireland. Did you not read what I said about every vote being constitutial? Orange or Green? You can criticise, but saying a political party that despite winning seats that they should go just go away? And I see you're...

    Nicola Sturgeon to resign as First Minister of Scotland, Humza Yousaf elected as new First Minister.

    It's easy to blithely dismiss like that when your constitutial future isn't in doubt. Would you like your nationality to be so casually talked about?
