Unbelievably, #DuvetKnowItsChristmas generates such good will on social media that over the years we've raised somewhere approaching a quarter of a million quid for homeless charities. If you can spare a bob or two, sling some to Centrepoint, and here's the link: www.gofundme.com/f/duvet-know...

Governing isn't as easy as moaning from the sidelines is it??
Reform UK-led Derbyshire council announce closure of eight residential care homes just days before Christmas.
That's going to spell misery and considerable upset for hundreds of vulnerable people and their carers.

Not only does Trump belong in prison but the people who have done the redacting belong in prison too.
They are quite knowingly and consciously keeping a rapist and predatory paedophile in office and the shame of doing that should follow them for the rest of their miserable fucking lives.

“He raped me.”
“Donald J Trump had raped her along with Jeffrey Epstein.”
“She was found with her head ‘blown off’… there was no way it was a suicide.”
Now we’re starting to see why Trump was hiding the Epstein files, and it probably gets much worse.

At some point next year, the gormless fuckwits currently in charge of Labour will *surely* look at the ample evidence and say 'Hmmm. We appear to be losing votes to the Greens not Reform. What could this possibly say about our approach??'

YouGov have Reform on 25% in both their first poll of 2025 and their final poll before Christmas. The only significan sustained gain across 2025 was Green Party +7, at expense of Labour
Reform 25% tp 25% (-)
Labour 26% to 20% (-6)

I think the ugliness is the point for many of his supporters.
They're people who have given up on hope, beauty, love, truth, honesty, valour, fairness etc etc.
Inflicting the horror of Trump on everyone else is their pathetic revenge on people who haven't given up on those things.

We've scored 11 goals in 4 games. That would be impressive in any circumstances but that includes games against Liverpool, Chelsea and Crystal Palace. That's quite something.
