Are femi-nazis coming to cut his penis off OR will toxic masculinity give him the prostate cancer he truly deserves? Dole bludgers, climate change, anti-vaxxers, cancel culture – the outrage is deafening. Everyone is crazy, everyone has an opinion, everyone is wrong. Silence! In amongst all this noise and hysteria and angst, and snowflakes and trolls, who will give us a bit of bloody shush? Chopper is here to More info...

I’ve done lots of othe More info...
