The Prime Minister said in September that we are at a fork in the road. These asylum proposals suggest we have taken the wrong turning.

The idea that recognised refugees need to be deported is wrong.

last night at a bar I learned that they improved pinball by making machines that are entirely computers and they’re much better than what we had before

So proud of our flagship Kent Council, who cut wasteful spending by painting yellow lines outside a school that has been closed for nine years.

New post just out:

"The Reality Trap"

On Reform's struggles running councils.

What it tells us about how they'd fare if they won a general elections. And about how broken our system of local government is.

I need new hiking boots, every pair reviews like so

“5/5 ⭐️ - awesome, 5 yrs in, comfy, watertight, would recommend”

“1/5 ⭐️ - shit, leaks after 3 months, avoid”

EVERY pair reviews like this - whether they’re £30 or £300?

Feels like I’ve wasted a day 😕

Years ago I was suspended on Twitter for inviting Marco Rubio to swallow ten D batteries, which I don’t see how it could be a threat; he and I were not even in the same room and I have at most six D batteries on hand

A landlord on the Today programme just described landlords as “a race of people who are being targeted”. Parasites playing as victims.

Lowering thresholds rather than simply increasing rates seems like a sure fire way to piss off a wide swath of the electorate

Years of freezes already dragged many into a higher band, - and now you’re going to make more of their salary subject to that higher rate?!

Little Factoid

Al Dente pasta was invented by Alan Dent from Kent. He was stationed in Italy during the war, and went by the name Al Dente, Italian for Alan Dent. His teaching helped the Italians how to cook pasta properly.

Not to be confused with Alan Fresco.

1. "Barely legal" ick
2. 15-year-olds are not, by definition, "legal," "barely" or not!
Megyn Kelly: "I know somebody very close to this case…Jeffrey Epstein, in this person's view, was not a pedophile…He was into the barely legal type, like he liked 15 year old girls…He wasn't into like 8 year olds…There's a difference between a 15 year old and a 5 year old."
