9 years ago a man came up to me outside Cologne Cathedral and told me that the Rothschilds had decided that George Osborne was the next UK Prime Minister.
A man genuinely came up to me on the street and said the Fabians were part of a new world order of control. Baffling that they can fit it in between pamphlets on prison reform.

Reassuring to see that the traditions of 70s socialism can still be revived. No mass movement is complete until its membership is reduced to a single person.
A group called 'Our Party' is trying to take over 'Your Party'

Shocking! 36% of all film fans are joyless cinephobes! Boo!
ENRAGED by the newfound knowledge that The Personal History of David Copperfield (2019) has an average rating of 6.4/10 on IMDb, who are the people who disliked it, were they all born without a soul, or capacity for joy

Unless I’m missing something, Labour have done some pretty good things both at home and internationally in their first year - certainly the last year much better then prior 14 - so interesting how negative the media and commentary are

Reform’s leader thrives on fear and imitation. To beat him, the main parties need conviction, not copycat politics
