What Caught My Eye In the News Today

No it is not Brexit !

Can't think of a single person left
Who isn't bored to death with that yet.

What caught my eye today was this 

Mayor of London Sadiq Khan
Gave personal permission today 

For an Orange Baby Blimp of Donald Trump
To be flown over London when he Visits 

A crowd surfing page was then set up
And in under 15 minutes flat
£35k was raised to make a Baby Blimp of Sadiq Khan

The only person who has the power to deny this request
Is Yes you guessed it
Mayor Sadiq Khan himself.

Answers here below please ?
How you think that Vote will go ??

You see he revels in taking cheap shots at Mr Trump 
Every opportunity he gets 

What he is not so fond of though !
Is this
When Trump replies 

With a few choice home truth's of his own
Then he takes on the form 
Of a Dog without his Favorite Juicy Bone

Jan Allison July 9, 2018 at 4:03 PM oh I'd not heard of the retaliation with a baby blimp of Khan, lets hope both blimps burst and we can get on with more important things in the world... anyone got a rifle to fire the two shots to deflate them lol:-) I'm surprised Khan hasn't said you khan't do that lol:-) hugs jan xx Christopher Flaherty July 9, 2018 at 4:30 PM Wish every Politician would burst into flames like the devils they are when they told a lie or did something self serving . That would be the only Politics I would be actually interested in or actually bother or find worthy of voting for. But I won't hold my breath . Christopher Flaherty July 9, 2018 at 4:25 PM Bet you he does say exactly that Jan . You khant do that. All Cabinet Members on both sides of the floor are Executive Board Directors on all Top 50 Blue Chip Companies on the Stock Exchange. Are they honestly going to vote through Brexit if it impacts there Share Prices ??
