But still, irrespective of the sentiment conveyed; that's got to be the funniest hand puppetry I've ever seen. I was trying to recreate it to impress my friends but failed. The puppeteer must be double jointed. 

looked like cgi to me , impress your friends??? shouldn't you be hanging around with people your own age.

Government subsidised restaurants.  This is the latest idea to get disfunctional people to eat well apparently.  Being rolled out from next year.

 

 Let me see if I can get this link to work:

Nah, I reckon it's real, just someone who's very flexible, double jointed. It's a shit state of affairs though isn't it? Where we can never be sure of the authenticity of any images nowadays. Only going to get worse with AI too. 

 

Puerile humour is like the Peter Pan of comedy: it never gets old.

Migrants run across beach to board dinghy in the Channel

APPLE.NEWS

French authorities in an inflatable boat passed life jackets to those on board the overcrowded dingy...

So that’s where all the money is going, free lifejackets and a cheery  Bon Voyage from the French tourist representatives as they happily wave off a boat load of £42k per year chancers.

As Macron says, and we all know, small boat crossings increased exponentially since and because of Brexit. Anyone want to take responsibility for voting for that shit show? Or just sit behind a keyboard moaning, all talk but no action?

 

Might want to consider, have you written to your local MP / SNP representative, have you any considered solutions (apart from shouting "though shall not pass"), have you looked at the causes of small boat crossings, considered what can be done to stop them leaving their own countries in the first place.... or is al lyou ever did was moan constantly to a forum of tree surgeons? Stand up and be counted? No?

My view is that you SP are not intelligent enough to understand such a complex situation, but you like to think you are.

 

I voted leave. The migrant numbers have been on the up due to global events.
