You fell for fake news.

Ian Blackford spent £40k on travel and accommodation last year

http://www.theipsa.org.uk/mp-costs/your-mp/ian-blackford/

Angus MacNeill spent 20k

http://www.theipsa.org.uk/mp-costs/your-mp/angus-macneil/

So that's 60k for just two SNP MPs, so do we really think the other 33 had just 2k worth of expenses between them?

I knew it had to be fake but what the heck, any chance to slag the Tories

Re face. FPT. China needs to decide if it considers itself a world power or not. If the answer is yes, we could be in big trouble with tariff warfare. Either Trump or China will need to lose face bigly. Wouldn't hold my breath for that happening quickly.

Trump, for the moment at least, still needs to win elections. China doesn't. At the very least I would expect China to hit back hard on tariffs designed to hurt Trump in the midterms. They can always drop the tariffs later if they want to back down.

He did it ad lib and it was incorporated into song/video.

Plus he wasn't the only black player in the squad, on the day of semi final how could you forget Paul Parker?

Plus there was super Des Walker.

Doesn't seem to have hurt Corbyn, or Miliband, or Blair.

Admittedly none of them had fathers who were senior figures at the UN, or husbands who are High Court Judges, or resigned after making xenophobic remarks about the English, or pretended to be senior army officers.

With the US acting antagonistically towards the EU there is always the potential for a partial realignment that would bring China and the EU closer together. Osborne would have worked for that if the referendum hadn't been lost.

You could define 100% to be the average performance, then 200% of average would be possible. Big G didn't define what 200% was of.

I reckon a 2 sigma performance should be enough.

England look as though they are wearing chefs outfits

They can wear clown outfits so long as they score goals!

Now 83 minutes of nail-biting hanging on to a 1-0 lead?

That photograph always puzzled me. Am I the only one who thinks the angry girlfriend is much better looking than the one he's ogling?

Well the one being ogled may have a spectacular arse, who knows?

Can't see any sign of Boris Johnson...

England all over them at the moment.

Sounds like most of the crowd are England supporters.

Is there a football match on?
