Middle class woman of a certain age. Can’t abide the very silly and ignorant use of words like ‘woke’ and the equally absurd invention of ‘culture wars’ by third rate hacks. Proud EU rejoiner, a fan of civilised debate. Love London.

Have you ever heard someone go off, and their words are so perfectly chosen, so well said in that moment, that you’re in awe? You think, “There’s nothing to add here,” and you applaud in your head.
That’s exactly this. Pure perfection. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Sadistic behaviour by entitled morons.
Fox hunting is a revolting sport. It's only survived in any form because it's done by ghastly, entitled, influential and aristocratic people who feel it's the God given right to charge about the place in silly costumes tearing animals apart for no good reason.

New figures say strengthening fox hunting law is a vote winner in key battleground areas
New polling data released today shows that, despite being banned nearly 20 years ago, voters want hunting laws strengthened by the next government and will cast their votes to prove it.

Emma Reynolds MP: "I'm proud we're delivering on our promise to ban trail hunting. It puts wild animals at risk and is used as a smokescreen for illegal hunting.
We'll consult on how best to implement this ban early next year as part of our Animal Welfare Strategy."

Admiral Holsey will testify about the boat bombings and Hegseth's response. Holsey was told to "move fast and don't ask questions," and “comply or face consequences”. He resigned 15 minutes later. He wants the country to know the truth about the drug boat bombings. 🇺🇸👍

I thought Goodwin was an intolerable, opinionated, extreme rightwing twit with an obnoxious world view who should never have been promoted to professor but he now sounds deranged and dangerous. Sounds like he needs to be sectioned.
Matthew Goodwin objects to prosecuting this: ‘I think it’s time for the British to gang together, hit the streets and start the slaughter. Violence and murder is the only way now. Start off burning every migrant hotel then head off to MPs’ houses and Parliament, we need to take over by FORCE.’

Well said Jess, trouble with Badenoch is that she is utterly without grace or nuance and can only use attack dog instincts - imagine if she’d had the political nouse to understand this is a cross-party issue and agree with you, she’d actually win respect.
"Kemi Badenoch has to use people like me to give her any kind of relevance," @jessphillipsmp.bsky.social tells @lewisgoodall.com, responding to Badenoch's criticism of her handling of violence against women & girls.
"She should probably apologise to the girls who might have been raped."
