Unfortunate enough to suffer from the conditions of being both British and having Asperger's. I despise felon presidents and their enablers. I politically lean left and I am also Pro-EU. My pronouns are He/Him.
The more I learn about Labour's asylum plans, the more I hate them. Britain's reputation in the toilet, again, just to plicate racists who would have never voted for Labour in the first place.

The fact that Shabana Mahmood keeps tripping a Freudian Slip where I accidentally call her Suella Braverman is quite funny.

I'm guessing she's not been to Southall station either... That station also has bilingual name signs, in Punjabi.

Just came back from a holiday in Devon; no lamppost flags anywhere between Dawlish and Dartmouth, although there was a fash sticker campaign seemingly in progress in Paignton, an example is pictured below.
Someone did hang flags from the M5 bridges in Bridgwater but they were removed after a week.

Bro, this is getting ridiculous. 4 spam calls in the space of 48 hours. Scammers, stop trying to call me, you won't get through.

My mother @downtwisted.bsky.social and I ended up watching 𝘛𝘩𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘥𝘴. She wanted to watch it because @reecedinsdale.bsky.social is in it.
I will say this; it most definitely lives up to its ghastly reputation, especially in the 3rd Act where things get very raw and apocalyptic.

To give people an idea of how bloated the North American (sorry Canada) autos are, here's a size comparison between the best selling car in the U.K. (Ford Puma, front) vs the best selling car (actually a full sized pickup truck) in the U.S. (Ford F-150, rear).

I am having a hard time even finding this one. There's no sign of it on Google Maps and OpenStreetMap shows a road under construction but fails to show any details, not even a name. I am assuming it's this one?

This map gives an idea of how different the M5's route could have been. I am glad this plan wasn't executed because the M5 would have thundered past my childhood street! Also, the station at Smethwick Galton Bridge might have never been built either.

I am frankly embarrassed to be British, because if the UK follows through with a block it's joining a club of extremely autocratic countries like Russia, China, North Korea, Iran, Saudi Arabia, etc.

4) Alternative State Route 30 in Perth, Western Australia.
It's the only signed Alternative of a State Route, but it in the past has been signed with white National Route shields. This appears to have been a mistake however, as *most* signs have since been patched over with blue shields.

3) Route R1 in Adelaide, South Australia.
This number is a unique exception to the expected prefixes used for alphanumeric roads. This route forms a ring around central Adelaide, so I am guessing someone in the State Gov't wanted to give this route an unambiguous "THIS IS THE RING ROAD" number.

2) Alternative Route A2 in Charleville, Queensland.
This route splinters off from the A2 to service the town of Charleville. This number is a unique exception as no other Alphanumeric Routes have signed Alternative Routes.
Also, dat hybrid National Highway A2 shield tho.

1) Alternative National Route 1 in Melbourne, Victoria.
This route follows the old Princes Highway that runs through Melbourne's eastern suburbs. This number is unusual because it's an orphan, there is no shielded Route 1 it can be an Alternative Route of, that route having been replaced by the M1.

There is a large roundabout near me that might attract your ire. The M5, A4123 and A4034 all meet at a roundabout junction complex which exhibits most, if not all of the sins discussed in your blog post.
