I have lovely grey hair. Which I keep in this bag.
And now she can get questioned on the dubious content of his stupid videos?
James Ball@jamesrball.com · 10h agoHaving said it was okay for Bonehill-Paine to be a councillor because it was just bins, instead of dropping him, Badenoch has given him an advisory role – *after* Jewish groups refused to meet with him? Does she just never want this story to end, or....what.
What a repulsive man. I had eye problems. Everything from routine cataract surgery and laser work for retinopathy in both eyes, to a vitrectomy. Some of the surgeons and nurses didn't have flawless English. But as they were busy saving my eyesight, it would have seemed churlish to whine about it...
Might take the rest of the afternoon off to work my way through all the brilliant Liddle pieces that have been posted by his admirers over the last couple of days...

Little girl on the train: Uncle Mallory died. Her mum: Yes. Little girl: So he won't feel anything now. Her mum: No. Little girl: Which is good because the insects will be eating his eyes.

Hodges is an occasionally useful guy to keep an eye on, mainly because he’ll say things that his less stupid colleagues are smart enough to keep to themselves.
In Dec 2024, Mazraoui refused to use a Man Utd jacket with support to the LGBT cause because it was against his religion. Today, Man Utd has announced a partnership with a betting company & yes, he was seen wearing a shirt with the sponsor on it So just a raging homophobe hiding behind religion
Mazraoui recusou-se e jogadores do United não usaram casaco de apoio à causa LGBT

No time to write anything, so please enjoy this tale of an artist who died 24 years ago today and was obsessed with death to the extent of doing hundreds of works on the subject, faking his own, and embalming a homeless man he’d befriended, who didn’t want “the authorities” to have his body
Robert Lenkiewicz: Larger than life and death
He had thousands of lovers, faked his own demise, and kept an embalmed corpse in his home. Yes, Robert Lenkiewicz was one of the great eccentrics – and now, prices for his paintings are soaring

The Tories have selected a convicted former Neo-Nazi as a councillor. Here's why that reflects very poorly on Jeremy Corbyn.
Another lovely day without Rod Liddle breathing.
Sure, Democrats are not perfect and we have some bad apples. But sexual harassment and abuse of women has become an absolute epidemic among elected Republicans because it is the culture of the party under lifetime serial sexual harasser Donald Trump.
My column on how capital becomes a death cult. Faced with a choice between profit and human life, the radical right chooses profit. Then it tries to persuade us that mass death is what we want. It's the new phase of climate denial: accept your fate, earthlings. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
Murderous heat, an endangered food supply, decimated landscapes: embrace the Mediterranean life | George Monbiot
As climate disaster stares us in the face, the radical right says ‘Embrace the Mediterranean life’. Embrace death, more like it, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

First, you tell me to get a hobby; now it's an “appropriate hobby”.
Love love love PG Wodehouse. His first novel for adults and already into his stride
Americans operate on a level of sentimentality that the rest of the world only achieves after five pints.
This is an excellent observation, I will be stea, er, adapting this
Dorian Lynskey@dorianlynskey.bsky.social · 16h agoJust thinking how Johnson spoke like a newspaper column — colourful, bantering bullshit — whereas Badenoch speaks like the worst kind of comment section: querulous, chippy, pedantic (I'm just talking tone here, not content)
I just can’t believe we’re seeing this sort of stuff from a sitting MP Just want to say to British Somalis that you are loved and I’m so, sorry this is happening.

Spaghetti with Chard, Chilli and Anchovies was Recipe Of The Day on Monday and I failed to let you know. What a nincompoop! I’m making up for it now, as it’s just too good to miss. www.nigella.com/recipes/spag...
Spaghetti With Chard, Chilli and Anchovies
This is the very first recipe in Cook, Eat, Repeat, and one I return to regularly. There is just something about the contrast between the semolina-sweet spaghetti, minerally chard, and the saline dept...
