My starting point with the tsunami of weird and clearly coordinated conspiracy tweets is what would a foreign adversary's intelligence service want to propagate and then I work outwards from there.

This is so 'core', I'd go as far as saying Starmer has just shortened his tenure as PM.

He's acting like he's in Badenoch's position: in opposition, shattered/fractious party, chasing other parties' votes.... but he's got a huge majority and four more years of government.

Total insanity.

Chaffinches

I’ve heard a few of these recently. I can draw this cartoon for you if you so desire.

I was willing to give Labour 12 months to set course before I started tearing in to them. 12 months is nearly up and my disillusionment is reaching boiling point.

Got to be honest, the idea of local entertainers dropping in to the nursing home to cheer us all up of afternoon with punk hits of the 70s is making the assisted dying bill look attractive.

PROFESSIONAL V/O:

One day they're incinerating sausages like a normal person

Someone once said to me 'Scarfolk has 100s of 1000s of followers, and then there were the books & merch, TV/film options, etc. You must be rolling in it by now'.
I didn't even make minumum wage. Many years, I didn't even reach personal tax allowance.

Having an abusive father really prepared me for this moment. You stupid babies. It doesn’t have to make sense. There is no secret, guiding self interest. He will burn the house down with you in it. That’s all. That’s the whole thing.

It’s just malignant and expends too much time and effort for so little reward *persecuting” these people like the system seems wont to do, so we should just accept them as a natural consequence whilst empowering yadda yadda, is my take. But c’mon, let’s not pretend they don’t exist.

I mean, anyone who lives in any of Britain’s post-industrial areas could probably point out a few people who have backed their way into a life on benefits either as a semi-conscious choice or because previous governments absolutely tore the fucking heart out of the places economically.

One thing that jars with me is how binary the debate on benefits gets. We’ve got everyone on here pretending nobody could ever be swinging the lead, and everyone on the other place pretending everyone is and no space for my “hey, some are, it’s the price we pay for a functioning system, shrug” take

Listening to the Tim Harford radio 4 doc about how children suffered from a lockdown imposed to protect adults, straight after a news bulletin full of 'young people with MH problems need to get back to work to save us all a fortune' is I have to say fairly jarring

It's Mothering Sunday in less than a fortnight. I'll be reading out the names of our #RememberedMums in church on the morning of Sunday March 30th. If you'd like to add your late mother's name, let me know. It can be oddly comforting to know her name will sound out once again. Reposts welcome. ❤️ 👑
