I should tell my kids that we used to have a type of celebrity whose entire job was introducing movies, and that a country with less than 20 million people was able to sustain not one but two of them, and see if they believe me or if they decide "Ivan Hutchinson" is a name I just made up.

Bernardi served under Liberal leaders including Malcolm Turnbull and Tony Abbott before leaving the party to found Australian Conservatives
Former Liberal senator Cory Bernardi will lead One Nation’s ticket at the coming South Australian state election, nearly a decade years after quitting the Coalition because the party was not conservative enough.
One Nation leader Pauline Hanson confirmed the news late on Monday, after a day of speculation that Bernardi – who quit the federal Senate in 2020 – would be the latest former Coalition member to join her party. Continue reading...

Goodwin’s semi-conspiracist obsession with dinner parties is a real psychological tic. He imagines that all the fancy “elites” are moving from dinner to dinner talking trash about him (I would actually enjoy that though)
You dont win 'em all! Reform's Matt Goodwin in Sunday Times: 'Most .. people criticising me are nerds.The last thing I want is to be at some dinner party table with Nick Robinson & Mary Beard. I'd rather shoot myself in the head'. Hang on, I'm not THAT bad!Nerds sometimes have a (thoughtful!) point.
