Caught two minutes of the BBC stuff on the news and feel sick at the idea of this pillar falling. Farage and the other cunts chomping at the bit will take the NHS next and we'll be sat listening to Third Reich FM hoping our minor injury infections take us sooner than later.

If they only knew how to zoom in, they might just be able to make out the red poppy too....

Coffee and sunshine is a great way to start the weekend, no matter how sleep-deprived I am!

Is there a prominent Brexiter left who hasnโ€™t torn off their mask to reveal the rancid racism beneath? Boris Johnsonโ€™s chief fluffer accusing anyone else of being over-promoted is peak process. The bitterness of insanely privileged men with empty souls knows no bounds.

The Lordsโ€™ Work? How Tory Shadow Ministers Are Cashing In Many Conservative shadow ministers in the Lords are being paid to โ€˜adviseโ€™ the same industries theyโ€™re meant to scrutinise.

๐Ÿ”ด MPs are banned from been paid to give 'political advice' - but Lords can.

And guess what? Many Conservative shadow ministers in the Lords are being paid by the industries theyโ€™re meant to scrutinise.

A message to Irish politicians:
Leadership is not always about doing what people want; sometimes it's about doing what is right, and bringing the people with you, even when you think it's not popular.
This is one of those times.

To see Matt Goodwin drooling over a chance for NF-level race-baiting just days after he appeared on Question Time sums up how irredeemably rotten that show is. Today they'd book Nick Griffin without batting an eyelid

I've spent a *lot* of this weekend just lying on the sofa, but to be fair to myself, I think I've needed it! Definitely needed to recharge the batteries this weekend before a fairly hectic week ahead.

Until a white Anglo-Saxon Christian with a private education runs amok, thereโ€™ll be people willing to blame minorities for every crime. And when the posh bloke does it theyโ€™ll say he was pushed into it by VAT on school fees.

Really seems like we're getting all four seasons in one morning here in London... But now it's November, the intermittent sunshine is better than no sunshine at all! โ˜€๏ธ

Constantly amazed at how many people reach adulthood not having developed an 'indoors voice'. The guys in the office next to me constantly speak as if they're trying to be heard over construction machinery. It's relentless.

(Yes, it's been a long week and I'm very grumpy...)

This - in a nutshell - is what's wrong with the world. Giving even a moment of airtime to the unhinged and uneducated thoughts of someone who is famous for being famous. She's a vacuum in human form. And from moon conspiracies, anti-vax sentiment quickly follows.

Fine Gael leader and Irish deputy prime minister Simon Harris.

After presidential fiasco, Fine Gael and Harris choose hate over hope - why the Irish right pivoting to overt racism is as predictable as it is wrong, and what the left (and in particular Sinn Fรฉin) has to do to avoid making the same mistake.
