In the movie version of this, after Piddington runs out of food water and money as a result of leaving the UK, the residents apply for asylum and end up housed in a military base, with HILARIOUS consequences. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Watching C4 News and I’m starting to think there might be something a bit shady about this Farage.

Possibly the most shocking revelation in this whole thing is that Nigel Farage was at one point in Clacton.

okay fine if we’re doing speed camera discourse, here’s my take as a Brit/american: the British system of almost entirely fixed location cameras at high risk points is much better at improving safety and less discriminatory than cops with radar guns looking for Black folk to pull over

I know a lot of people think this Channel 5 documentary on Farage's finances is going to be ground-breaking, but those people have never seen a Channel 5 documentary. I, for one, can't wait to see to see the opinions of Timmy Mallett, Dane Bowers, Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen, and Uri Geller on screen.

The eclipse making crescent suns through the trees on the façade of St Luke’s Church, Hoxton.
A church with the shadow of a tree on it. The eclipsed sun is making small crescents. A close up of the crescents.

had such a good time watching the eclipse on Putney Bridge, friend basically had to drag me there but it was so lovely, people of all ages with all forms of obviously handmade contraptions trying to look at the weird sun, everyone passing like three pairs of glasses around, delightful delightful

I see Ann Widdecombe has died. When she was Home Secretary I showed her round Drake Hall womens’s prison. There was a pregnant woman on a bed in the early stages of Labour and she asked the prison officers why she wasn’t handcuffed to the bed. That’s the kind of woman she was.

The social media ban should be like the smoking ban. People born after a certain date should never be allowed to be on social media at all. Let it become a thing creepy old people do they want nothing to do with. Free them.

The Pacific Surfer from San Diego to Los Angeles has to be one of the most wonderful, and affordable, train journeys around. First half hugs the coastline and offers gorgeous views. Less than $40. Have suddenly become a big fan of Amtrak. Very different to Avanti West Coast from Euston
