Eldest daughter has moved in to cat sit while we’re away. Think said cat is being a dick.

When they talk about reducing red tape, remember this image.

He literally set off a bomb in a UK street. If this had been the IRA Pierce would calling for them to be hung, drawn and quartered. This is domestic terrorism pure and simple. A bomb set off to terrorise with the aim of getting a government to change its policy. Literally a textbook definition.

If you're in my GP's office any time soon, prepare yourself for what many are calling the greatest mnemonic of all time. Come for E and P, but sit down and clap for I.

S severe breathlessness

Anyone else getting a little bit sick to the back teeth of (Re)former Tory Ministers talking like they were nothing to do with the past they criticise? Nadhim Zahawi, you held ministerial positions under May, Johnson, Truss AND Sunak. Where’s your apology if you believe in it so much?

“Listening to him this morning” Not sure that Laura listened to a word Burnham said. She’s too desperate for an exclusive quote to conduct an interview properly. #bbclaurak

It's worth noting that Jason Arday's former students have built a webpage so that they can have a platform for all the good things they want to remember about him: leilacancode.github.io/everythinggo... Another interesting contrast...

It is very hard to satisfactorily describe just how badly the BBC's journalistic standards have collapsed in recent years. Quite completely fucking useless.

This should be the moment people finally realise that Farage has turned them into fascists. If you’re choosing this dangerous inhumanity over the rescue work of the RNLI, you’ve lost your minds to racism and hatred.

While rightwing media nods approvingly at the prejudiced outcry in Piddington, a RNLI station has to close because of white British thuggery and threats. This is where the constantly toxic obsession with immigration leads. To racist, flag-wielding vigilantism that ruins this country for everyone.
