IT guy. Lapsed techy. Husband. Father. Man with intermittent beard. F1 fan. Liberal. Atheist. Remainer. He/Him. Probably autistic.
Visited my wife’s school. Someone’s drawn a picture of her on the whiteboard near her office. Have to say - it does capture her essence rather well actually.

The problem after 14 years of damage wreaked by the Tories is that we now have a f***ed up BBC and a f***ed up NHS.

But, remember, the f***ing up has come from outside. It is not intrinsic

We desperately need a properly functioning BBC and properly functioning NHS

DEFEND THEM!

As I’ve seen this confused a few times, please note that Robin Gibb was a much-beloved member of the Bee Gees, whilst Robbie Gibb is the BBC board member who also, totally coincidentally, was editorial adviser in the set-up of GB News.

I know, Bee Gees, GBeebies, a bit confusing…

The real challenge for tech bros is striking the fine balance between completely destroying humanity and retaining enough of it that their billions are still worth something.

Aubergine - fuck off forever

The Champ - It’s been 40 years and the memory still upsets me.

Love Shack - hateful

Red meat - work experience in a food tech lab taking swabs in an abattoir put pay to that.

Top Gun - Honestly, Tom Cruise gives me the ick.

Mr Brightside - Shouty mindpiss.

No one could have foreseen this happening.

Apart from all the people with rudimentary digital literacy skills who totally called it would happen of course, obvs.
Once again, I'm asking for governments and lawmakers to have the slightest idea about how the Internet does - and doesn't - work...

Well thanks for emphasising the party you belong to, Mahmood, because without that, it would’ve been hard to distinguish you from the Tories or Reform. All seemingly competing to win the “Biggest Bastard to Immigrants” prize. You cannot win against Reform, but competing with them disgraces you.
Home Sec Mahmood: "Some may describe me in the coming months as a tough Home Secretary.

"Perhaps that is true. But let it never be forgotten that I will be a tough *Labour* Home Secretary."

The government clearly think we are all stupid. Chasing Reform is not the way to go. Refugees and immigrants are not the problem, our politically lazy self serving governments are.
