I’m just sitting here watching the wheels go round. “And if I seem a little strange, well that’s because I am.” Even more bipperty bopperty than Bowie’s better-than-that hat. Neurodivergent, late diagnosis (AuDHD). Not on Facebook, Instagram or X.

“We have had the police knocking on every door,” said a dog walker and resident of Dean, as a helicopter buzzed overhead. “They wanted the names of everybody living there and details of their social media. I know several people refused. We asked them if they were protecting us, or Vance. At least they were honest and said it is for him and that it will all be passed on to the American security people.”

Buried in The Observer yesterday was this: UK police knocking on doors demanding details of social media accounts of people, to pass to a foreign government, simply because they happen to live near where a US politician wanted to have a holiday observer.co.uk/news/nationa...

Imagine you want to row from France to England and you can choose route A) 22 miles to Dover, or route B) 120 miles to Great Yarmouth. Rupert Lowe thinks people would choose B. Rupert is an idiot.

'People are angry': Behind the wave of asylum hotel protests The BBC visits sites of protests to hear the voices of those opposed to the hotels and others in support of asylum seekers.

They see brown men and think their women and children are under attack. And they get a bbc article about their 'legitimate concerns'. How long before they have legitimate concerns about the rest of us?

New YouGov polling. A monumental failure of our political class to educate, a monumental failure of our media to report fairly, for a generation

If you took a billionaire's money away, they would just earn it back again. Cream rises to the top.

I'm so confident about this, I think we should prove it by taking all the billionaires' money away.

How did "woke" become an insult? Doesn't it just mean "enlightened"? Oh you've "woken" from the sleepy unconsciousness of white male supremacy? You want to be "kind" to those less fortunate, and therefore "unkind" to white males? You think you're so "educated" because of all those years of study?
