Shocked by the awful death of Rob Reiner. I spoke with him for over an hour last night. We talked about his work and his plans for the future. I always enjoyed his company. We met at his Dad's in 1975. Last thing he said to me was "See you next year.." Such a terrible end. Such a sweet man.

2016 Daily Mail: We want foreigners out! We don’t care if it makes us poorer. Brexit means Brexit!
2025 Daily Mail: Foreigners are leaving Starmer’s Britain because this country is poor and shit!
This country would be so much better off without this hypocritical, incendiary, irresponsible rag.

Let us pray: 🙏🏻
‘Our Nigel, which art in parliament,

Thy fascism come;
Thy will be done

As for that Jesus bloke, he’s a bloody leftard.😤

I double-checked because I literally could not believe this was true, and he actually did say this. I wish I lived in the type of country where the press covered the current President's delusional fantasies with as much zeal as they covered the former President's age.

Interesting what Crick notes.
Farage like Mogg and Johnson are really just grown up versions of their teenage selves. Lots of public school boys leave fully formed - and armed with an entitlement and a sense of empowerment that takes them through the rest of their lives.

On why Farage doesn’t apologise for his schoolboy racism:
“if he apologised, he would be turning to his own support base and saying, ‘You’re all guilty too.’ ”
Exactly.
He is racist. So are his voters. He can’t be pissing them off by saying sorry.
