One of the arguments in favour of the mansion tax, which I admit I did not anticipate, is that it would be like the private school lobby in that it would send media people insane and cause them to not focus on anything else because they're so busy running completely unrelatable case studies

I wish there were a way to tell advertisers of the things you’ll never buy and that they’re wasting their money / my time. I don’t want YouTube premium, I don’t want my groceries delivered on a bicycle, I don’t want food with added protein. Advertise me things I want instead!!

Since I posted this fundraiser two days ago on my 10 year tranniversary I've raised over half my original goal of £15k.

I never expected it to go this well or to get this much support from, frankly, extremely generous queers. If you can donate or share, it is greatly appreciated.

If a Reform MP argued as regularly and consistently as Neil O’Brien does that people who aren’t “white British” don’t count as properly British and are in fact just foreign, then they would lose the whip, let alone be on the frontbench.

I don’t understand why people are confused by the EHRC guidance. There is one toilet that always lies, one toilet that always tells the truth and one toilet that always answers randomly.

That perfect moment when Pope Francis stopped the car to embrace Sophie Cruz. I cried my fuckin eyes out. After all the pain this country puts migrants through, this moment the little Mexican girl broke through was ... everything (video cred: AP). He was a real one. Obit below.
