Re: Please VOTE in the European Elections on 23rd May, and vote REMAIN!

When I look at some of the posts which get ‘personal’ I struggle to see how any of the posts really help. I voted remain but fully respect leave and think we should just get on with it. But a small number of people use it to spill vile and hate. That is why we are in this mess. Partisan politics. At...

Hillary's are expensive and no better quality, in my humble opinion Shutters - there are two major manufacturers and most come from there. Buy from Hillarys and it could be £500, John Lewis and it...

Re: Labour backs a second referendum! Many in our SW boroughs will be DELIGHTED...

GuyD73 - I am with you. My job disappears in the few months following hard Brexit.  But a referendum is a referendum.
