Farage, of course, made it so much worse with this "mitigation":

"a word that colloquially probably was meant in a nice way 20 years ago"

No, it fucking wasn't. Certainly not 20 years ago, and in my experience, never.

So, you never got to Access then?

Could be worse. You could be Joey Barton.

Kimi Antonelli didn’t receive death threats because of what Gianpiero Lambiase said. Kimi Antonelli received death threats because what Gianpiero Lambiase said was broadcast. After a delay. A choice made by F1 TV. It is they that should apologise.

Oh, and who TF has a four year old’s party that late in the day? Surely it’s a morning thing, done by 12:00 so everyone can get on with their lives?

The voicemail you get after declining:

“Hiii, Angela, it’s Mary. We know it’s a tough ask, and his birthday is actually the day before, but little J will be just so exhausted, running around, opening presents, eating pigs in blankets. Joseph and I would be so happy if you came. Oh, and bring gold”

He literally writes, in blood, “Ho Ho Ho” on a dead henchman after wrapping his present of a machine gun. It’s all there. What could be more festive than that?

Why indoor? There are outdoor climbing walls too.

There was a guy fessing the other day that his wife leaves his croissants in the conservatory for him. Are you the wife and do you have a lover waiting in the vestibule (and do you allow him to use the guest room toilet. After?).

That…actually sounds like Peter Griffin doing an impression of Trump.

I think Sorearse might be offended at being referred to as a “lass” and therefore considers it a lucky escape.

Stream of women? Stream?

You trout tickling, again?

Not name tags. Contact numbers so that his carers can be called if he goes walk about.

Surely you can’t be serious?

To be fair, your aged bras haven't had to support tits quite that massive.

No, I do not know what gave you that idea, I'm not a maniac.

I drank 9 bottles in one day.
3 the next, for a breather,
6 the following day.

Wait until I tell you about the time Sainsbury's sent me 10 boxes of mince pies. On purpose.

(my only regret is that those two happenings were 4 years apart)

Not going to justify their behaviour, they are students after all, but it sounds like she was up for a bit of extortion herself, which, given the circumstances, is likely the greater offence and the one the Police would likely be more interested in.

Fortunately for her, they were idiot students

There's only two things in this world I hate Mark:

1. The judgement of others.

B. People that cannot spell Marc correctly; they shall be harshly judged.

Why this is even a story? Member of party leaves and joins another would not even be on the widest of radar scopes if this were, say, a former Lib Dem leaving to join the Greens.

And no, "former minister" doesn't justify it. His time in Parliament was boorish, unpleasant, and ended 18 months ago.

Yeah, Dave gets it. Would never be so underperforming at the weekend.

I acquired 18 bottles of wine under exactly the same circumstances. They could come to get it. The delivery company that delivered to the wrong address could come to get it, or the supplier could. Didn’t care who. They all had 28 days. Wasn’t great wine but days 29 to 31 whizzed by.

You just know the traitors to the left and right of him are holding him in place and providing the counterbalance to allow him to do the thumbs up.

They’ll be breathing through their mouths as well.
