Excellent article by @adambienkov.bsky.social for the equally excellent @bylinetimes.bsky.social. Reform’s policies & Farage’s grifting are turning off voters who realise he’s another 🍊💩. Who does he have left to mobilise & vote for him? The racists & white supremacists, that’s who.

My housemate performed a blind, dramatic reading of this article in our living room, with gusto and props. We framed this quote and it’s been on the mantel ever since

A mantelpiece with an ornate brass cherub candlestick a framed passage in dappled light.

“I take another pillow out of the packet, open my eyes and I thank God for the existence of Smiths’ Scampi Flavour Fries.”
