Had my nose in the war diaries for the regiments my grandads and their brothers fought with. Forgot that my great grandad also saw action in France with the Rifle Brigade even though he was FORTY ONE when WWI started

The women on the deli counter at Suffolk Food Hall have learned how easily persuaded I am when it comes to cheese and are now feeding me samples I can’t afford this

Told my neighbour I don’t drink and she said “not even wine?”

Of course there’s a burst pipe at Heathrow. Why would major infrastructure be scrupulously maintained to avoid such disruption?

Heard a strange sound so got up to look It was RAIN. A tiny bit of rain

Jason Arday was a man with two children, hounded to suicide by the right wing media and their obsessive, racially motivated, hate. My thoughts are with his family and loved ones.

I'm sorry... 'Prof Gone'? They made a man's sacking the main news story for weeks as the country went on fire, which might have contributed to his death and 'Prof Gone'? This is the same clique that wept & wailed for a week when we dared mention their dinner party pal was a wife beating nonce.

Jason Arday is dead. The UK media won’t learn a thing from this. Because they’re racist bastards. He has two children.

Not Andy saying the fire service made him do it

That is not the right emergency noise for this kind of generic notice, is it? I shut it before I read it the first time.

Where do the notifications go on your phone? Can you see them after you’ve panicked and swiped them away?

Poorly timed notification from the range there 🤦🏻‍♀️

I always knew the end of the world would be on The One Show.

The Gov alert is causing chaos on TV.

See now I’m thinking “they’re giving people ideas”

The emergency alert went off and I dropped my phone into the barbecue.

OI, BURNHAM NO

He’s been prime minister for five minutes and he’s already playing with the emergency alert.

Well, I certainly won’t be having a disposable barbecue. Because and emergency alert telling me not to has just stopped my heart and killed me.

BLOODY HELL UK GOVERNMENT

Phew, that’s a relief. I thought it was going to say Farage had gone on a rampage.

Fucking hell! Did everyone get the alert or am I at special risk? I’ve got a dicky heart, Andy Burnham!

The Asian dad Tommy Robinson falsely accused of being a predator has launched a defamation crowdfunder www.crowdjustice.com/case/tommy-r...

HOLDING TOMMY ROBINSON TO ACCOUNT

I never expected to end up here. Tommy Robinson's accusation about me, a Glaswegian dad, went viral before it was ever checked - and I'm not willing to just let that stand, or let him do it again.

This is the gayest thing I've ever seen and I've been on pride marches.

I have only just realised Farage’s initials are NF #NominativeDeterminism

Parliamentary investigation resumes into Nigel Farage hours after he wins Clacton by-election - live updates

The Reform UK leader won the contest, which was boycotted by major political parties, but didn't attend the declaration.

bbc.co.uk

Reform’s electoral record at parliamentary by-elections: win by five votes when the previous Labour MP had literally decked one of his constituents. Lose. Lose. Lose. Lose. Lose. Beat a novelty candidate with no ground game while doing worse than the Tories in the same seat in 2019.

Well said, Count Binface 👏
