Endless Possibilities
The great political divide – Guardian-style:
Yes, an “always Labour” politics teacher clashes with a GP who votes “Labour every general election.” No crockery was thrown, you’ll be astounded to hear.

Really getting to the bottom of things.

It’s just not allowed.
Surely you see the difference.
Only way to get the stains out of the upholstery?
Sufficient grounds for deportation.
Mr Humza Yousaf, lest we forget, is speaking in a country, Scotland, the population of which is 93% white. Which would, one might assume, account for all of those white people who seemingly offend him.
Her children are neurodivergent: once upon a time, parents were proud their kids were on the honor roll. Ah, the good old days…
No matter where he goes, he will be offended when he sees people who don’t look like him and don’t worship like him.
THAT is why Islam has bloody borders.
