If I were to reanimate a corpse-man from stolen parts I found attractive I would simply make the creature actually attractive instead of hideous and uncanny
Reading Frankenstein & reflecting that, were i to make a corpse-man i would make things easier for everyone by not making him eight foot tall

Don’t make me defend the chancellor but this wave of stories really are absolute bullshit. So clear that they wanted to bang on about the tax rise that didn’t happen so now they’re actively scalp hunting
If you look at the ridiculous case studies they dredged up & the desperate attempts to hang Reeves for ‘lying’ about the rationale behind a policy she *did not introduce*, you might work out why right-wing media is straining *not* to talk about the finer detail of her (unremarkable) budget.

It does feel like half the stories in the UK press only make sense if you follow Enoch1488, a peadophile on twitter who they have decided is the voice of True Working Class Brits
At some point the media’s view of their jobs changed from holding politicians accountable to active scalp hunting over relatively nothing. They’re trying to use a relentless drum-beat of less than honest narrative creation to try and force resignations in a way they never did before.

This will actively appeal to a lot of reform people who basically love that they can be part of essentially, “The Dickhead Party”, but ideally we can switch a few people off at least
Farage also turns out to basically be exactly the guy you'd think he is.

I think this is right btw. Most of the MASSIVE fall in immigration is a result of the new restrictions from the last Tory govt finally having an impact, give it a couple of years and Labour are going find they’ve overshot
I think the government meant to cut net migration but have accidentally overshot the target by a lot. They haven’t realised this yet.

Business idea: I come round your house and use my lack of construction skills to turn it into a shithole to own Rachel Reeves.

Another way of looking at this, of course, is that if you took the triple lock out of the equation, the benefits bill would very likely roughly be increasing in line with projected inflation *if that*

There’s no welfare state that isn’t funded by broad base tax rises btw. We can have an expansive welfare state with strong public services (my preference) but you as in low paid and middle earners will pay more for it.
Anyway, the budget is basically fine. she bottled it by not upping income tax.

Rachel Reeves says this Labour Governments decisions are "necessary."
Why is it always necessary to hit the living standards of the 99%?
When are we going to make the necessary decisions about extreme wealth?

Let's say for the sake of argument that his policies are "successful" (say in reducing the number of UK asylum applications).
Does he think the press will simply sit back and applaud him?
No chance. They'll just invent a new bogeyman – a new epidemic – that he's to blame for

Starmer’s anti-asylum policies show how utterly clueless he is about the right-wing media’s role in politics.
He’s trying to fix a “problem” contrived by Farage, GB News and The Telegraph. He’ll never win, because ultimately he’s fighting a ghost – he’s fighting something that doesn’t really exist

Myles Garrett is the best defensive player I’ve ever seen and I’ve been watching the ravens when prime Lewis and Reed were playing. Kyle Hamilton is going to be a hall of famer though

They need to do a post-Traitors show hosted by Joel Dommett and Alison Hammond where the losers go to their chosen charity and have it explained to them exactly what can’t now be funded as a result of their failure
FYI: The BBC has revealed the charities #TheCelebrityTraitors were all competing for, with links so that you can donate.
