Yup! Consistently the most popular in the nation, gets elected by a huge margin every time! He’s on record as having voted for both Biden in 2020 and Harris in 2024 and paints himself as one of those ‘fiscally conservative and socially liberal’ politicians that New England states seem to enjoy

If Phil Scott, a man who has won five gubernatorial elections in a row in Vermont as a Republican (the last with 73% of the vote!!) is barely hanging on…

I enjoy that 90% of Avanti customers on seemingly every train I take don’t seem to have worked out that G, just like U, is an unreserved carriage. About four of us in G, whilst U is full.

I am on my way to having a casual meal for one at Pizza Pilgrims now! (I’ve never been, is it good?)

Finn and I bumped into him at a gig in London last week which was a small thrill! He was the target demographic, we were the outliers!

I’d say the Paris metro is pretty similar to London in terms of experience and therefore a perfectly serviceable mode of transportation!

Americans talking to Americans in Paris: “our taxi driver told us not to take the metro as it’s dangerous” Perhaps use some logic about why a taxi driver may tell you that!!

Not having a huge amount of faith in the brandmauer when Die Linke are still being lumped in this group by the mainstream centre-right party.

The odds you’d have got the day after the 2024 election on Sunak outlasting Starmer as an MP must have been substantial!

To prove my point, I had to look this up before posting after I drew my usual blank after Ontario, Michigan, Superior, Erie!

Just very funny the extent that UEFA absolutely despise this man who used to be one of their own. I truly don’t think he has a bigger hater.

Well this is a choice! “Gonzalez has deleted all photos of herself with her wife and their first child, born in January, from her social media accounts since signing for Al Qadsiah.”

15 minutes from door to office and 95% of it on segregated cycle lanes whilst the train takes the same time, is cramped, and costs a lot more… I should have done this earlier

No one actually cares that a world leader travels business class on a commercial transatlantic flight, do they? Sure, people may *pretend* to care but, surely(!), no one *actually* cares?!

The fact that I could go and eat anything (it’s been entirely vegetarian since 2012) was a huge selling point!

Anyway, had a blast, 10/10. Great festival, great city. The Glasgow of Sweden, they call it. Well, maybe they don’t, but they should!

Those on Instagram (michael.craig96) will be used to the spam but spent four days by myself in Gothenburg at Way out West and had an absolute blast and met some brilliant people and saw some incredible acts. It’s fun to do things alone, sometimes! And you meet new friends! HIGHLIGHTS:

One thing I have learnt about musical festivals in Sweden is that if an artist from an English speaking country whips out a “tack”, or even goes for a “tack så mycket” if they are feeling particularly wild, the crowd lose their mind like they’ve just completed the entire Duolingo course

I did and I lost! It thought me a valuable lesson in that we only ever truly have ourselves to compete against and, if you’re ever comfortable and feeling like you’re beating yourself, you’re never going to elevate yourself to a higher standard. Only when we lose, do we begin to win.

My favourite is the person telling everyone that resurfacing the road is proof they want cars gone and the WEF are installing 15 minute cities

“He grows anxious when he has an unexpressed thought” is a great line, in fairness

What a beautiful evening of cultural exchange in Glasgow Central station where fans and athletes from across the Commonwealth get to interact with thousands of drunk teenagers heading to the Calvin Harris gig ❤️❤️❤️
