Pull up a chair for some friendly chit chat about politics and beyond

Taxes optional but greatly appreciated.

Greetings from Malta. I couldn’t have chosen a better time to be out of the UK.

Looks beautiful!

Little Tennyson is unimpressed with the weather and the lack of available prey. Every day for a week he's come home with an empty pouch of Whiskas. I have no idea where he's getting them from 🤣

She does look decidedly pissed off with her lot.

Show quote history

That’s her normal expression…she is a cat most unimpressed with everything at all times.

Great name, he looks distinguished!

Thanks for the new thread. I'm home again now but tax from Rhodes. The distant cliffs were Turkey.

I'm struggling to keep up with everything at the moment so thanks to all for keeping me abreast of the current highlights and lowlights!

I am back to 9 swim training sessions a week (Ds not me I’m just taxi!) and working FT so I’m often following but commenting less. It also explains why I’m up at 4am!!!

I love reading this thread and links even if I don’t always have time to get fully involved.

Grumpyoldpersonwithcats · 16/09/2025 07:38

On one of the endless 'Starmer is toast' threads last night a poster suggested that the 1922 committee would get rid of him.
I'm worried now - I hadn't considered that that as a possibility. 🤣🤣🤣

Grumpyoldpersonwithcats · 16/09/2025 07:42

I've noticed a preponderance of black cats on these threads (we have three). Wondering if there might be a correlation between household pet preferences and political leanings?

Maybe, but on the interest of balance, I also have a tabby, a ginger and two ginger and whites in addition to The Ladyship.

@Grumpyoldpersonwithcats I stay off those threads but that’s hilarious 🤣
