Having to get past drunken far right protesters tonight in Solihull just to get home after work.
Cue "how do you know they're far right? 🤬"
Mate, no one else goes out in torrential rain and hangs England flags on the church.

As much as I dislike Starmer - and I do - I love the fact that if Musk actually understood facts and figures he'd probably cry himself to sleep at night over the fact that Starmer's net favourability is still higher than his own.
Not going to pretend today wasn't depressing but the far right has been stronger in the UK before. Mosley packed out Earls Court and was backed by several large newspapers. Enoch Powell had the support of 74% of the population.
Musk has a net popularity rating of -52%

Bye bye Elon. I'm not even going to support this manipulative bullshit by leaving my dormant account on your fascistic platform. It's time for as many right minded people as possible to stop helping to line this idiot's cavernous pockets.

And now every celebrity is pumping out children's books. A handful are flooding the market with murder mysteries.

Why is it always a children's book? When do we get a celebrity who decides to edit a Festschrift or prepare an annotated edition of a primary source text?
