Brexit teething problems causing a bit of chaos for the fishing industry. Lorries with fresh produce being delayed at the French border causing lots of waste. Still they voted for it so they'll have...

I can see how you might think this way from the information in the above mini doc, however, there is quite a lot of missing information that is quite important. I have had a quick read of the...

I think that's a little harsh. Do you mean he should have aborted take-off on the first indication? Nothing in the procedures to indicate he should.

With the death of the policeman, Trump has blood on both hands.

I bet Bo-Jo and Farage wished they'd kept their distance from from the Trump now. Shit sticks and there's plenty of Trump shit.

Isn't that standard practice? Some mixed reports of gender, some saying male officer. I think it's irrelevant.
