Suella actually saw that wall and I tend to believe her.
Why wasn't I informed? I feel offended!
Perhaps you should make a quick visit, lots can happen when you're away for a while :-)
This link is, in practice, unusable.
Works fine for me.
Only if you are a Mirror subscriber.
Oh - and: while there is the usual level of childish amusement at Suella's gaffe, it's worth reminding everyone that not so long ago, Turkey (in those days, the Ottoman Empire) very nearly *did* have a border with Italy (or at least, whatever statelet existed in north-east Italy at the time). The Ottomans had pushed well north of Belgrade, nearly to Vienna.
Perhaps Suella visited the (almost) border during the heyday of the Ottoman Empire. Imagine how foolish all the people who mocked her are going to feel when the truth is known.
No doubt her time as chair of the European Research Group involved searching out such little known borders.
I am not a mirror subscriber.
F****ng Arabs were in Spain at one time.
Brilliant!
