Motherfucker was born in 1982. He knows the square root of fuck all about football in the 80s.
Jenrick casting 1980s British football hooliganism as something that was easily dealt with by police and not an era defining issue which we're still living with the consequences of today... He's genuinely the most unserious person in British politics rn

Just went back to listen to Jacqui Smith on Today condemning Musk comments. Striking how confidently and decisively she did so. Clearly an agreed line. Much more positive from the government.

“Nigel Farage says….” has been the headline of the decade.
Look at what he does, ffs.
Look at his tax affairs.
Look at his grifting.
Look at his lies.
Look at his prejudice.
Look at his allies.
Look at his manifesto.
Look at his Brexit.
He is the embodiment of personal greed and national failure.

“Lower body deodorants” are now a thing and they must be stopped! For the love of all that is holy and good, just wash!

Spare us men using 'lower body deodorants' – have they forgotten how to wash?
Lads are using ‘lower body spray’ to 'whole body deodorant' – what's so wrong with good old-fashioned soap and water?
