As if we needed another reason not to drink the filth! I remember when Doom Bar in Rock was a decent pint, a long, long time ago. When MC took over it became pap, and then ubiquitous pap. If you walk into a pub and that's on the bar, understand that they know nothing about beer and care even less.

Woman’s rugby union player on radio 4 this morning said about Sean Edwards ‘he’s very northern, I have difficulty understanding him sometimes’. Well I think that’s what she said!

When I say massive I mean humongous. Half acre plot with planning permission for one 9000sq feet house. Yes one house at 9000sqfeet. Ridiculous

Nice that Today were able to interview Amol Rajan for six minutes on his failure to make headway on some tv show and allow him to plug his new website/podcast. Perhaps it’s not all milk and honey on the other side. Editors pulling a favour for an old pal. #Sweet #TodayR4

Your weekend reminder that Nigel Farage wants to - leave the ECHR - repeal the Equality Act - Strip back workers rights - Lift restrictions on exploitative zero-hours contracts - repeal the Renters’ Rights Act which abolishes no fault evictions He is not on your side youtu.be/KxOQRt8PQys?...

On the same day diesel hit £2 a litre for the first time, we took 50+ cargo bikes onto the streets of London for the seventh Cargo Bike Cruise. While diesel vans are getting more expensive to run, cargo bikes are becoming a practical and cheaper option for more and more businesses.

This isn't *just* a sincere and committed actor and director trying to save something of value for a West Yorkshire community. He's backed by experts in the arts and heritage sectors. These are serious people, with an important goal. Let's bring this to as many eyes as possible! 👍

If you go out and make some good things happen, you will fill the world with hope, you will fill yourself with hope. ― Barack Obama Cycling generates hope - better health, greater happiness.

Why do journalists not report that Scotland and Northern Ireland MPs killed the England and Wales assisted dying bill? Northern Ireland MPs voted against it by 9-0 and Scotland's by 28-14 - a combined net opposition of 23 votes, exceeding the bill’s 16-vote defeat.

Oh yes. Perfect summary of the loathsome Jenrick, by Crace, the king of takedowns…
To recap. Back in 2014, when Honest Bob was first elected as MP for Newark, he was a wishy-washy Cameroon. Because that's what he thought you needed to be to get on in the Tory party. He was a faithful remainer when he thought that was the winning side, and then became a committed Brexiteer in a heartbeat after the vote. Without even an attempt to hide the shamelessness.
Then came his populist phase. No foreigner went unscathed. Especially all those brown and black faces in Birmingham. Because that's where he thought the votes were. Everything he's ever done has been to advance his career.
If Jenrick has been on a journey, it's been a circular one. The man with no qualities. No values. No beliefs. Just a needy homunculus for hire. Hitching his wagon to the highest bidder.
