Words and humour. Not medicine but a tonic at least.

Don’t let the team behind the James Bond franchise know about this plot twist, we’ll never hear the end of it.

Also his obsession with Chicago and determination to mould its population to his every whim.

Efficiency and capability look boring. Chaos and novice-level ability is somehow more appealing.

Don’t tell him that a selfie would sort this out.

We have built a society in which people of different skin tones, religious backgrounds & cultures get along, share power, work alongside each other, procreate with each other, recognise the each other’s humanity and democratic rights. It is a STUNNING ACHIEVEMENT OF WORLD HISTORIC PROPORTIONS.

The UK pushed for earlier versions of all of this whilst a member of the EU. I don’t play chess but am fairly sure I have a better grasp of what a chess board in play looks like to each of the players than any of the rancid Brexit cheerleaders.

It’s like you can just never have enough. Perhaps he has discovered it is edible after all.

Exactly. He would be one of the people who Jenrick would baselessly accuse of not integrating. They know their supporters are mad for this stuff, and do not care for logic. Or thinking.

You can predict a mile off her answers to questions, which will *all* involve culture war tropes.

If I were the leader of the opposition a year after an election, facing an unpopular government, I would simply focus my energy on criticising the current government's policy record rather than constantly bemoaning the last fifteen years of policymaking, in which I was intimately involved.

He’ll be appalled when he finds out which party he used to be an MP for.

Find someone who looks at you the way Jenrick looks at coiffed horsehair.

It helps if you’re foamingly racist/opportunist to start with, and then the rest comes easy.
