Wait? I am making the interest rate a sore point in my future political actions?

OH MY CHRIST I AM MIDDLE-AGED!!! NOOOOOO!!!!

And this doesn't even affect me personally, but prioritising the WASPIs?! FIFTEEN YEARS HEAD START!!!

Now seeing that Vikki Slade tweet, I may be reconsidering.

I mean- I mean- You just want to grab Ed Davey's collars and scream "SIX POINT TWO PERCENT!!!"

Fresh rope attachment.

First time ever.

No-one bit it.

say what you like about Saruman but at least he was a YIMBY

I do wonder if Elizabeth Holmes had been less greedy and egotistical then she would have gone down a path that would have made actual dividends.

Don't underestimate modern medicine. It's the one good thing about the 2020s.

TARIFF MAN IS BACK

Six point two percent interest

THEY WILL REMEMBER WHAT HAPPENED AND WHY

We can’t keep doing populism like this and make promises we’re never going to keep. This will backfire on us heavily if we ever enter government. As it did the last time.

My dying thought will be: “okay, but what *was* Zarah Sultana thinking?”

Hilariously, my inkling is that the party who'd theoretically have the best chance of taking the seat is Your Party, because "Muslims + lefty grads" is basically what the party is made for, but *gestures at burning wreckage of Your Party*

That Greta Thunberg hasn't said anything* really does sting because here is a person who actually knows quite a lot. Knows more about Western Sahara than 95% of the world and spoke out against what happened in Artsakh. So this is not someone who gets their info via insta graphics.

*maybe one thing.

Sometimes I just stop and remember Badenoch went from “April 2025: believing conspiracies about Adolescence being based on a real story, July 2025: opposing the Online Safety Act, December 2025: ban under-16s from social media”, and not in dishonest Starmer way, just in a “what a journey!” way.

I always liked this one.

There's a throwback

Text of tweet sent on 26th January 2026 by former Barnet Tory Brian Coleman, who was a pretty nasty piece of work: Reform are not Conservatives. I have nothing in common with the rag bag of failed Politicians that make up Reform and have no friends in Reform. The (self appointed) leadership of Reform is Facist

FFS already

What does a Zionist look like, chat?

No that's good. Means you haven't been skipping leg day.

Ad by the Labour Party for the Gorton and Denton by election which boasts how many children in the seat have had their life chances boosted by Labour

Begun, the Facebook ads have.

not discounting race here at all but the fact that you saw their faces made this much, much more visceral. it's the same reason George Floyd broke through when Philando Castille didn't.

Suozzi. Fetterman(!) Greg Abbot(!!?!?!)

yeah, Pretti's murder has completely undone them

I would like to refer to my previous tweets when I said that the Lib Dems do not realise that they could be going into disaster.

if ICE puts me in a card deck I will pay any amount of money for that card deck, and I will frame it on my wall

pretty wild statement re: Republican Chris Madel drop from race for MN governor:

"Saying he cannot support the national GOP's 'stated retribution on citizens of our state, nor can I count myself a member of a party that would do so."

‘We are the Good Samaritans’: Minneapolis hits back at ICE A network of ordinary people is trying to hold officers involved in Donald Trump’s sweeping Minnesota crackdown to account
