I know this is uncomfortable to admit, but there is a small area in England's second city where people are just not integrated with the rest of society. Many of them hold views that arguably go against British values.
Yes, we need to talk about the Tory conference in Manchester.

Any long running tv series will have, probably, more downs than ups. One that’s gone on for over 60 years is not going to be an exception. Doesn’t mean the series, or it’s concept isn’t without merit. The Dr is just one of many “cult” tv shows I enjoy, but there’s no need to be precious.

The UAE is an authoritarian autocracy, a petro-state with no income tax for citizens, to bribe them for the lack of democratic voice or free speech
It is 85% migrant, a segregated society with a ban on integration in principle and practice, few rights, equal opportunities, nor voice for incomers

I know statistics are poorly understood and are misused. But facts matter
Between the 1991, 2001, 2011 and 2021 Census *every* ethnic group in the UK has become *less* geographically segregated and *all* groups, majority and minorities, are more likely to interact with people not like them

Lord Heseltine, "I wouldn't touch Nigel Farage"
"I hear of talk about a pact with Reform UK"
"We can see Reform UK, all over Europe. Le Penn in France. AfD in Germany. Same equivalent in Italy, Spain"

Reform's brilliant DOGE team at Kent council found zero savings and now want to raise council tax. It's almost as if they were lying and haven't got a clue what they're doing.

Lord Heseltine, "If the Conservatives want to be reelected they have to appeal to the centre ground of British politics"

President Trump says he was talking to the President of Somalia and said,
"We have someone from Somalia telling us how to run our country, would you like her back?"
Trump is referring to Democratic Congresswoman Ilhan Omar

#OTD 45 years ago (7 Oct 1980) according to my diary, I drew these images for the Hitchhiker's Guide BBC TV series. Douglas Adams as both the ad exec and as Paula, the worst poet in the universe. I was 19 years old and having fun.

I've had a busy day working on a future episode, a presentation I'm giving for Halloween and some disability access stuff. But I thought I'd share with you this fantastic design my friend Tess' daughter has made for me. Who'd like some merch with this on? (It comes in green, and purple also.)

People like Jenrick who hide behind a gossamer thin veil of “integration” to hide their racism never complain about a lack of black peoole in a predominantly white area. #C4News

Ten years ago I did a show with my friends Lindsay Sharman and Alex Young called Jilly Blooper, a loving tribute to Jilly Cooper who died yesterday. It was the most fun I've ever had on stage and we performed it about five times over a couple of years. This was the trailer.
