I was forced to take RE for the first three years of secondary school. It didn't affect me at all as I came from a very anti-religious household. In the final end of year RE exam I answered 'goat' to every question - the RE teacher went mad and swore at me, which did make me feel bad.

My now dead parents would have been the sort of people to vote for them - looking through rose tinted glasses at a past without immigration that never existed, living in their middle England town with nearly zero black or brown people, untouched by immigration.

The irony of a government trying to ban protests because of the issues it causes the police trying to get a ban on fans attending a match because of the likelihood of racist violence caused by them is unreal.

'This' war has ended, if history tells us anything it's that another war is just around the corner. Both sides have too many religious zealots who think that god talks to them for it to be any other way.

I once interviewed someone who had gone in for ear stretching. They never made it through to the next round. Can't be looking at that all the time.

Apparently it's only a 'hacker's dream' in the UK. The rest of the world manages to have ID card with no issues. Maybe we could ask one of the hundreds of countries that do issue ID cards how they do it.

I recalled someone who tweeted that the judge at their trial was corrupt. The judge didn't want them recalled but I took that as a breach of this licence condition

and back to prison they went.
