I always mentally replace the word 'ex-pat' with 'immigrant' whenever I see it written.

Me too! It’s such a ridiculous phrase.

Not coming to a UK bank near you anytime soon

And let's not even get started on Rory McIlroy!

Phew, I was worried for a bit.

Oh, thanks for that Matt

Reform by-election candidate calls for ‘young girls’ to be given ‘biological reality’ check
Exclusive: Matt Goodwin argued ‘young girls’ should be explained ‘the biological reality’ that ‘many women in Britain are having children much too late in life’

Did anyone have any bets on it getting this creepy ?

In a proper country, the tabloids would flay an adult man alive if they started openly fantasing about "young girls" sexual proclivities.

Quite an accusation to drop intro the reformista hive mind.

Matt Goodwin can FOTTFSOF and all the rest.

🤮 but not a surprise.

The menopause is already known about. He didn't discover it.
Also are these "young girls" adult women being referred to in a patronising way. Or actual children (sorry I mean "underage women")? Because I really think that crowd should be staying the hell away from telling them anything. Starker took most of the political flak from the Epstein files so far due to his own stupid decisions. But there's a hell of a lot more to discuss there.

He is copying the letter the French government sent out, even more badly.

Well duh obviously it’s women’s fault that the birth rate has dropped. Stop getting your nails done and get sprogged up.

Ah! Goodwin is mates with Jordan Peterson... explains it all.

A pair of weirdo's

Farage

Asked if Ratcliffe was right to apologise for his racist statement about Britain having been “colonised” by immigrants, Farage replies,
'It’s probably in the dictionary definition correct, but perhaps people aren't quite ready for it’

Racist backs racist

Perhaps if there were not so many men as bad as Matt Goodwin, more women would find suitable men earlier in adult life. Those who would want to choose to have a family in their twenties, of course.

Nigel Farage, who has twice been married to people who migrated to this country.

You’ve missed an extra whole layer of Channel island complexity (where?). There’s a whole layer of patronising ‘bless the little Guernsey/Jersey athlete’. But you do at least get some praise for having done your best if you do lose.

Jesus Christ the night.

I actually feel sick reading that.

He seems to talk like he has a permanent fork handle up his rear. With apologies to all the candles.

I was thinking he is definitely imitating his boss. His speech pattern and gestures were similar.

The BBC have just shown a brief interview, I would have liked for them to ask just how young those children should be when they have sex to repopulate the country. This doesn't appear to be an issue for them though.

They did start the segment by implying Starmer should resign if Labour doesn't win.

On Question Time tonight Nadine Dorries is described as a columnist and author.

I have no idea what books this person has written but I do know she is a member of Reform.

She writes romance novels I think

Did they not even mention her Reform link?

Poor use of apostrophe

They did in the introduction but not in the preview.

What’s your feeling about Goodwin, Peterson and this statement?
