Ruining Rioters

Whilst he was Mayor of London, Boris Johnson bought some water cannons from Germany for £320,000.

Too Cold For You Mate?

They were never used, and were sold at a loss by current mayor, Sadiq Khan, for £11,025 to Nottinghamshire-based Reclamations (Ollerton) Ltd, who will dismantle them and export the parts.

UK Election 2024

 I suppose I should make some comment on the UK election ....

UK Election 2024

It was won by a Labour landslide and a modern record number of MP's

King Boris Kaput

Well Britain's colourful Prime Minister Boris Johnson has resigned.

Boris Johnson - A Colourful Prime Minister
