Meh, Southend is fairly quiet I think. Would have worked better had it been Liverpool or Manchester, right Monkey?

You can always rely on The Sun to focus on the real, hard-hitting stories in the news!

The Financial Times reports that US President Donald Trump is leaving open the option of military action against its rival, while the Times concentrates on the words of US Defence Secretary James Mattis, who says his country has "many military options" if attacked. The Daily Telegraph carries a stark headline: "US warns it is ready to annihilate N Korea." Meanwhile, the Daily Mail says households who overfill their bins face fines of up to £2,500. And the Sun focuses on reports that footballer Wayne Rooney fears his marriage is over.

Mind you, had it been Liverpool or Manchester they'd have done one of three things when they found it: eaten it, ****ed it or beaten it up.

Yes, The Sun is a disgrace to journalism - once again, they completely miss the big story:-

Who the **** uses the phrase "repaired to my house"? Is this guy a time traveller from the 19th century, or what?
