Funny take on the nanny state

Great stuff. Always funny and interesting take down of nanny state nonsense.

But never get Josh Howie on again. He was a massive bore.

Wow..

The silly smoking man thinks the public are wrong to expect the government to stop printing money and causing inflation. Why? “Because it always happens”. Wow. I’ve never wanted to slap anyone for being stupid before. Maybe it’s because he sounds so clever.

Chris Snowdon is unbearable

Evee since Snowdon changed his position on Sweden during covid and blocked anyone who disagreed with him, have not been able to stand him.
