Survey also reveals Britons’ favourite festive film, views on tear-jerkers and family cinema trips
When Macaulay Culkin recently said he didn’t consider Die Hard to be a Christmas film – wading into one of pop culture’s most heated holiday debates – he was booed by a live audience.

Like cutting your cock and balls off and then wondering why you can’t have any kids
Still reeling from the Stanford report on Brexit. Reduced GDP by up to 8% and investment by as much as 18%. The UK Treasury would have £40 billion more each year if Britain had remained in the EU. Devastating self-immolation.

Very good stuff from Sadiq Khan at the Labour Irish society event. He said there are two reasons he loves coming to Labour Conference.
“One is the reception at the Labour Party Irish Society reception.
“The second is to get away from all the Sharia Law in London”

This is actually a rare election where a Sankey diagram is helpful and not just beautiful, I think.

We need a catchy phrase like "the winter of discontent" to refer to this shitshow period of Tory misrule so we can hark back in years to come to remind everyone how bad it was.

This is not the sort of deal to help with my New Year’s resolution of “less news”
We've kept the price at £3.50 a month or £35 a year since starting. If you already pay you will keep that price.
For new subs, it's going to £4.50/£45 as of 10th Jan.
But if you sign up now, you get the old price forever.
So if you've been considering it, now is the time.
