Re: Corbyn will never be Prime Minister
It is hard to take any of the parties very seriously. Labour's policy on Brexit and another referendum seems completely nonsensical. It is extremely unlikely that the EU would be willing to negotiate yet another deal, unless it amounted to the UK virtually abiding by most EU trading and immigration...

Re: Corbyn will never be Prime Minister
And here's a thing - has anyone seen Grayling in the House since he wasted so much of our money on so-called ferry contracts?

Re: The new multicultural Hastings

They were going about their business peacefully enough, without a care in the world but looked strangely out of place somehow. Nothing particularly wro...

Re: Paving Studs
In Queen's Road, outside Priory Meadow Shopping Centre, the paving slabs are inset at intervals with what appears to be circular brass studs, about one inch in diameter. Does anyone know their purpose? I've always understood that the studded paving blocks are a tactile aid for blind people - althou...
