    Alcohol abuse doesn't just fook your liver, it can take an enormous toll on your mental health.
    Sounds horrible. Although I like a beer as much as the next man, I've been lucky enough to always be able to take it or leave it.
    Maybe it's not too late for our Oirish tinker friend to mend his ways.

    You went to a catholic school. Did your dad not do tarmac drives until the tax man caught up with him?

    Maybe not Manchester but there does seem to be an increase in nutters in Ireland trying to kill each other:

    Just some of the action in 2019, whether Brexit related is hard to say but has been increasing since the referendum:

    A bomb was found in the Creggan area of Londonderry after police searches in the area on Monday 9 September.

    A mortar bomb was left near a police station in Church View, Strabane on Saturday 7 September
    A bomb explodes near Wattlebridge in County Fermanagh, on Monday 19 August.

    Dissident republicans try to murder police officers during an attack in Craigavon

    The "New IRA" claims responsibility for a bomb under a police officer's car at Shandon Park Golf Club in east Belfast.

    A journalist is shot dead while observing rioting in the Creggan area of Londonderry.

    Five small explosive packages are found at locations across Great Britain and the Republic of Ireland.

    A bomb placed inside a van explodes in the centre of Londonderry.

    Are there? Seems to me that, somehow or the other, the country has bred so many useless, arrogant, entitled yet thick, poorly educated and ignorant koonts that there's a real risk of its precipitious decline.

    Civil unrest is a condition for invoking emergency powers under the Civil Contingencies Act. Then they can suspend habeas corpus, intern opposition MPs and pass an Enabling Act.

    Most likely the same people who will riot when food prices and unemployment go up because of Brexit dressed in yellow vests.
    And I hope that Boris will be the PM when this happens. He can then blame the EU for accepting our withdrawal.

    Just before we go the polls again...
