Im sorry, it's just i'm fairly certain we spent most of my life bemoaning the 70s because some bins weren't picked up for a few days, and that's the reason we're stripping the copper piping out of nan's room snd can never deviate from that

It's important at times like this to remember a scant year ago, which darlings of liberalism were demanding that pretty much any cause seen as progressive be thrown under the bus. And how, while they said it was sad, they seemed extremely happy while doing so. Shouldn't forget things like that.

It's been striking to see this show that once held the zeitgeist in it's hand, go full force (at someone they arguably had a hand in electing), and it's had...no impact at all, outside of the rare headline like this. Not equipped to handle the world around them, like the Thick of It gang in the 10s

It's the plot of Being There, except Chauncy Gardner *also* thinks he's a big brained genius

Reminds me of when Starmer and Sunak would be at pmqs and i'd idly be thinking of how neither the PM or LOTO had been in politics a few parliaments beforehand

The News Agents is a great case study of centrism because they actively describe how the sausage is made and yet none of their audience say 'Wait - what the fuck do you mean you ran a story because some Labour spad told you to?'

So under the new history then, was that Stephen Nolan hitjob podcast series "Trans *ominous sound effects*" in fact a hitjob on terfs?

Happened to have the news on last night when Tim Davies resigned & I couldn't help but notice how, within the space of ~20 minutes, the story morphed from one about a dodgy edit aired over a year ago to the BBC's alleged "anti-Israel bias". Real stink of shit coming off all of this.
