Yet again we’re being warned that if we ask billionaires to pay their fair share of tax they might leave. So it’s definitely worth trying.

Hypocrisy joins irony in the graveyard

Whole fucking thing makes me sick to my stomach. An abject fucking liar, a man who lies as easily as he fucking breathes, threatening an organisation which strives for truthfulness. And plastic patriots like the Mail and Farage urging him on. Jackels.

I’ve written to Keir Starmer, Kemi Badenoch and Nigel Farage urging them to condemn Donald Trump’s attack on the BBC.
The BBC belongs to Britain, not Trump. We must defend it together.

'The bitterness of insanely privileged men with empty souls knows no bounds.'
Is there a prominent Brexiter left who hasn’t torn off their mask to reveal the rancid racism beneath? Boris Johnson’s chief fluffer accusing anyone else of being over-promoted is peak process. The bitterness of insanely privileged men with empty souls knows no bounds.
For anyone still tempted to take Dominic Cummings at all seriously, he's now an advocate of Donald Trump-style open racism.

Ha ha in the UK we turned our clocks back last weekend but the Americans only just got around to it! And they pronounce "tomato" as "elevator" and their word for "trousers" is "sidewalk"! It's like we're two totally different countries. And their president is a fascist.

The “hard men of Gondor” were whiny, belligerent posers. The hobbits were peace-loving communitarians who liked music, drinking and dancing, but they were also brave and resourceful, and when shit happened they got the job done. As usual, you’ve picked the wrong side, my dude.

I hate the clocks going backwards and forwards. When I was young, we didn’t even have clocks. If we got hungry, we ate each other. We were poor, but we were happy. Good times. Not that we had time. It hadn’t been invented. We had to make our own time out of string and cholera.

For the record, he's as interested in introducing Sharia Law to London as I am - and that's 0%.
Those who suggest otherwise are deluded, or have a v sinister agenda.

Watching Trump’s address to the UN is like listening to the world’s most embarrassing wedding speech from a bride’s father, and the shame of realising he’s shitfaced being surpassed only by the horror of knowing that somehow, inexplicably, he also has nuclear weapons.
