It's started early this year.

Have you looked at the secret Santa email?
Nope.

Can I look at your email to see who you got?
Nope.

Can you give me a list of things you'd like?
Not thought about it.

But...Black Friday deals?

Seriously?? 🤦‍♀️
It's November, and capitalism sucks.

O/H wanted to go get an Xmas tree, but I said "No!" - " it's way too early - it's still November..

As if to prove the point I just mowed the lawn!

Feels like spring, wish it was.

Glorious, cathartic, taking no shit at all, Stewart Lee.

Brexit: “like someone stepping round a massive pile of dogshit on the living room carpet. Every day. For nine years.”

If only all our media could be as ruthlessly challenging as this.

Through his life and extraordinary talent, the immigrant and refugee child Tomáš Sträussler who became known to us all as Tom Stoppard made British theatre and this country a better place to be.

You might even argue that he helped redefine Englishness through his astonishing legacy of work.

Fuck. 😳

No congressional approval and whilst we're at it, using missiles against innocent fishermen who narrowly survived the previous one and who are now swimming, is an actual war crime.

I hope we have time enough for it to catch up with these murderous bastards in the White House.

Creating a military conflict with Venezuela gives this administration a legal "hook" to invoke the Alien Enemies Act. In other words, the foreign war is being manufactured in order to facilitate court deference for its domestic mass deportation policy. It's a Stephen Miller Special.

“Speaking outside his chateau in France, former Brexit Party and UKIP MEP Coburn answered "no" when a BBC journalist asked him whether he’d ever been paid to give a speech to promote pro-Russian campaigners”

Just FFS investigate the whole dodgy traitorous lot of them.

UKTBC Chair Andrew Lewin MP:

"The Brexit deal put up barriers with our closest and largest trading partners. We have 16,000 fewer businesses in the UK exporting to the EU."

"A surge in food prices, bureaucracy at the border and a hit to our economy of at least £100 billion."

I just realised that I for one wouldn't have a clue how to "Ask Chat GPT".

I don't know if it's an app, a website or part of some operating systems. 🤷‍♂️

I've never needed to know, and never will, every comment around me on this subject has made that quite obvious. 😆

The Prime Minister just told me any party leader should want to get to the bottom of this Russian bribery scandal with Reform.

He is the Prime Minister and a party leader. Why isn't he launching a national investigation himself?

Was just looking at train routes to RAF Duxford Imperial War Museum and airfield.
Apparently there's no buses from the nearest train station so I'd need a taxi or a coach.

...or if I have my own aircraft I can arrive in that with prior appointment, which is nice. 🙄😁

Think I'll be driving. 😂

Do your job

And the next time you have Farage on, please ask him directly:

…what were the motivations behind this?
