FFS we cannot keep doing this… A handful of the richest people hoovering up wealth from everyone else while quite literally making the planet unlivable At what point does someone grow a fucking spine and do something?!

On a call with my 70-something parents… Both of them saying they hope someone does something about this climate change …me explaining that unless it’s on their doorstep, leaders are too corrupt or weak to do a God damn thing.

Rod Liddle, who once wrote in The Spectator that he couldn’t work as a teacher because he wouldn’t be able to stop himself from shagging the kids, has died aged 66. I won’t be shedding any tears, personally.

If you took the words "migrants," "small boats," and "the establishment" out of Reform UK's vocabulary, nobody would have ever heard of Reform UK. Migrants, small boats, and attacks on the establishment are all they have. P.S. Nigel is the establishment!

Nah it’s just that the far right are usually uncomfortable with accepting the facts about what they are. They don’t want to face the reality that they’re unbelievably thick, utterly racist, very ugly, deeply unfuckable, horribly lazy and extremely gullible.
