More sweeping generalisation bollocks. Why do you make baseless claims about pensioners and people on benefits? You are as bad as Reform with their same tactics.

So do millions of white working men and women. Why not blame all of them?

Utter bollocks. Sweeping generalisations are not helpful.

He's a typical right wing Christian. Boring and predictable.

Excellent work! Well done for showing these charlatans up for what they really are.

I knew so much of Employment before it came out so I was a little underwhelmed. YT... was a breath of fresh air and, I feel, far stronger.

I lasted precisely one series of GoT, and that took some doing.

This series is so good that I am constantly gutted each episode is so short!

(And that trial of 7 or whatever it was called was incredible, horrific, brilliant, nightmarish!)

The free-kick was up there with Beckham's against Greece in 2001.

She said stuff, nobody made it an issue, nobody had to say sorry and she didn't feel blamed or victimised.

Some of her comments in class became the stuff of legends amongst us teachers, but only ever in admiration and, at times, a wish we could say that the head was a cunt without being in trouble!

I taught an absolutely lovely girl who had Tourette's and the things she came out with was the stuff of legends, but nobody at the school ever felt the need to apologise for her: she was always involved in school drama productions and the audience was told at the start. 1/

Oh, this one is a classic of the genre. My irony meter has exploded!

My kids didn't mind. Now they are in their 20s I'll ask them when I see them next and see if they've changed their minds.

Covid masks. That's the answer.

Before they got into Tangfastics, my kids were absolute Gold Bear fanatics! As a result, I hold them in high esteem. Also, I have no fillings (and yes, these are my actual teeth) so ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

As a counterpoint to the love in Grief, here's the horror in Mike Garry's Spring Crossings. It's one of my favourite poems, but then, I prefer the dark ones.

Worst? I think, when it comes to Haribo, it's "least best."

So he's asking people to vote for hostility and division, I presume?

You've got to tread Caerphilly at these events.

They'll be demanding his sacking by mid-March.

It's a difficult one. It will be hilarious if Arsenal don't win it and the meltdown will be nuclear. If Citeh win it, their fans will be ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ and then perhaps it'll get struck off at a later date with "no winner" in the records.
