We usually try to hold off until 3rd December (my eldest’s birthday). I am so not ready…

Current status: simultaneously horrified that I just heard my first Christmas song on the radio today (I AM NOT READY!) but also excited because it means that maybe I can start wearing my WHAM! Last Christmas hoodie again…

If I came from a family that has held a seat in House of Lords for 7 generations and used it to protect their vast empire from Tax and Inheritance Tax.

I probably wouldn't be complaining about free bus passes for Senior Citizens.

You'd look ridiculous.

Maybe intersperse this with him being creepy af about his own daughters - debating whether Tiffany might inherit her mother’s breasts, and how he much he would like to shag Ivanka.

Wes Streeting has received Β£225k from private healthcare donors in the past year and I just don't think my morals could be bought for the price of half a London flat. I don't know if I have a number that would make me sell my country's health service down the river but Wes and I are different.

One way to stop sex trafficking rings on private islands is to make sure no one has enough money to buy a private island

Nothing illustrates the arseholery of the IOC and the British Press more than the use of the image of a not-Trans woman to illustrate a story about trans women being banned (because there are no current trans women competing at this level)

I oppose the right-wing media's obsessive transphobia on principle of course but it's also a dead giveaway (see Matthew Syed's column today) that someone is speaking to a small audience of their peers. It is an all-consuming issue for a powerful minority but not a great concern for most people

If only all the rightwing grifters (a group to which the guy I recently found out existed belongs) could all be consigned to the book of forgetting.

This happened to me a couple of weeks ago. Now I know of this guy’s existence, I see that he is EVERYWHERE. I mourn the before times.

Cat’s out of the bag, I guess… no, I do not know how to pose for photos, and yes, it was HOT under the lights, hence my bright red face πŸ˜‚ Was very lovely to see @carolinepennock.bsky.social and meet Elizabeth Baquedano, among other wonderful people who contributed to the show.

you can win without billionaires supporting you

you can win without party leadership endorsing you

you can win unapologetically standing with every persecuted minority pundits say are too politically toxic to touch

we could do everything about this process differently if we wanted to

He could be just known as Andrew Cunt living in a portaloo on the Sandringham estate and we’re still gonna just want him in court answering big ol’ pedo questions. He can keep all his titles and his little medals if he wants, go talk to the police, fucko.

That Britain has a king, that the king's brother has been involved in serious instances of sexual abuse, that the consequence is for him to be stripped of a handful of abstruse feudal titles and that Britain's elite think this is a fitting punishment, is the mark of a truly fucking weird country.
