Well, here I am; I suspect I shall be using this a little more than the old place now, where I'm nigelwuk for the time being.
"Wild little devil." Thought Petro was talking about the conductor there, for a moment.

The one day of the year when I can actually use the "Hall in Vienna" setting on my surround processor for its intended purpose.

I suppose I could accept bonked on the head by Keira, and then eaten alive by angry badgers as an acceptable outcome.

As a gay, left leaning man, I am horrified that a party that used to have our backs has decided that trans people are target for kicking. Starmer's hypocrisy after using Brianna Ghey's mother to score points is shocking.
So too is his pandering to anti-immigrant sentiment. That's why I despise him

Glad the FT is asking the question. Even if I’m not convinced they found a compelling answer.
I get that Starmer & Reeves are unpopular, I really don’t understand the extent of the dislike.

Allies concede the prime minister and chancellor have made mistakes yet the level of disdain towards them is still striking

Got all psyched up to read the results of my scan, signed in to Patients Know Best, and it's just a message saying "The report will be available on 27 January 2026 at 10:19"

Well, I don't mind a programme about ITC, but poor Michael Grade.
What with the one about The Muppet Show the other day, he seems to have spent his Xmas talking about his uncle.

Oh no. Amber running to Brad. This is going to drive George over the edge.

Oh, a referral. That'll have him fixed by the end of the week.
If he has to fill in an online questionnaire, I bet he'll just call the questions stupid and quit.

Didn't Kemi admit to breaking the law, by hacking into a website?
And doesn't she have at least a claim to Nigerian citizenship?
She should be cautious about suggesting people have their UK passports taken away from them when they commit crimes.
It could be you, Kemi.

If you've an Irish grandparent, or Jewish heritage, or any link to another country that might conceivably give you a passport, you should be worried.
Kemi and her gang think you should lose your British passport if you post nasty things on the internet.

There's a chest of drawers I quite like on the John Lewis site, and it says to call to see which stores carry it, if you want to see it in person before buying online.
So I called. Only on display in Glasgow! I mean, come on John Lewis... you can do better than that, surely!

The right wing obsession with bacon is just peculiar; like, then they put it on door handles and shit like that. Do they think it's some sort of Novichok that only affects muslims?
Senior Reform candidate writes:
"People from other religions should eat bacon for a month to prove their Christian sincerity and credentials."

Alice Sullivan is a bit of a fascist snowflake, it seems to me.
Another hateful grifter. Any objection to her has to be "ideology" rather than free speech, in the right wing weird playbook.
