Ethan Lawrence

This podcast, with @ethandlawrence.bsky.social and Sean Antony is one of the most fun ever!

We covered a range of highbrow topics such as what constitutes a hole, why I'm often covered in petrol and me being the filling in a Greg Davies/Rhod Gilbert sandwich

Genuinely can’t wait to listen to my favourite centrist dad podcast to hear how completely capitulating to Farage’s framing is good actually/how they are so disappointed that their favourite forensic liberal is actually a say anything prick obsessed with himself and being in power.

So when/if immigration comes down significantly and best case nothing changes/worst case our public services erode even further, what then? What has Mr Forensic got planned for when the racists still aren’t placated and nothing has gotten better?

Such a deeply unserious wanker is Starmer.

Just checking in: how’s pushing Starmer to the left going?

SHAMBLES

Today I managed a wrestling match. I got properly stuck in. I got chopped. I got clubbed. I got booted in the chest. I got beer spat in my face (all credit to Big F’n Joe). And I fucking loved it

I’ve been here a while, I just don’t like it very much. But the addiction to writing pointless words is just too intense

Oh yeah, I’m going to start posting here now. I miss typing words and presenting them to no one since giving up Twitter.

“Haha” chuckles the centrist, “you Reform voters are about to find out they aren’t competent enough to run a local council!”

Good point. Everyone agrees local councils are run brilliantly under normal circumstances.

Just as robust as his commitment to dehumanising Palestinian asylum seekers, eh, Dunt?

No introspection then? As far as I can see, the vast majority of replies are just calling you out for being consistently wrong. I guess if you’re a smug prick that would seem like an attack rather than an opportunity to grow and learn.

Ian Dunt here, professional politics understander and performative swear word man, with his brain as smooth as his bald head, moaning about the left being… completely correct about his guy Starmer. This is apparently a greater sin than Starmer being an inveterate liar and fash curious dullard.

Ooh, you’re hard.

Throwing a paddy because the people you shat all over for years are smarter and more observant than you, a professional politics understander, is so utterly emblematic of your tissue thin politics.

Block me, tough guy. Your emperor has no clothes. Cry about it.

I’ve just found out that 100 people have now subscribed to my Substack.

I’m really pleased about it because I know it’s a hard sell. My articles tend to take about ten minutes to read and are often me trying to work out what I’m saying as I’m typing.

Proud.

I’m currently writing a piece on the degradation of culture and my industry.

I just saw an ad for Gemini AI on YouTube and said “oh fuck off Gemini” out loud.

These two things are linked.

Okay, just over a week until Christmas so time to shake the bucket.

I am on Cameo. I make personalised videos

For just under a tenner (the most competitively priced actor on there) that’s a perfect gift for the After Life or Bad Education fan you know. Please share.

Up until embarrassingly recently I thought the Elgin Marbles were actual marbles. Like little glass balls.

What I’m saying is I don’t care if we give them back.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again:

Some men “of a certain age” are the most thin skinned and humourless crybabies you are ever likely to meet so you can miss me with this “the wokes just don’t get banter” flapdoodle.

If I were Gregg Wallace I would probably stay quiet for a bit around about now.

But then I’m not angling for a job at GB News.

That’s where this is going, right?
