Strangely strange but oddly normal. Existentialist depressive, Amiable Anarchist and recreational misanthrope. Love my HiFi, guitars and Art books. Qualified Art Historian. Particular interests include Cinema, Oriental Culture and Military History.

I too wish Harry and whats-her-name hadn't come back, because it would have protected us from all the most tiresome twats in the world droning on about it.

If Michelle Mone, Boris Johnson and Michael Gove had been Black people with Left Wing views they would actually be in jail. Justice in the UK is blind, if you are Rich, White and Right Wing. Everyone else gets the hammer.

Jason Arday might have lied about the amount he was paid to write a book. Michael Gove literally bragged the £10bn stolen during the Covid PPE scam was an 'honest mistake'. One was instantly forgotten about, the other was hounded to his death.
