Well you say that, but the top headline on the BBC website is currently “A PM who lied to Parliament would normally quit – Raab” so I’m wondering if you’d consider that ‘remotely challenging’ or not.

I’ve only just realised, reading this, that when the pharmacist asks “Do you pay for your prescriptions?” they’re actually asking if I’m over 60. Which I’m not, the cheeky fuckers. When I go to the supermarket to […]

Not sure you can call him that these days, Retro.

Funnily enough I unplugged our arial yesterday. We had a couple of boxes under the TV that haven’t been used in years – a broken DVD player and some sort of TV recording thing. I thought I’d bung them away and […]

There’s more in the Allegra Stratton video, so the Westminster rumour goes.

You’ve never heard the expression “a case of wine?”

Can’t believe they went the Tesco Express by the Tube though. Go the other way up Whitehall and there’s a much better Co-op on the Stand by Charing Cross.

Right so, Chapter II. We were saying that there’s no legal precent set here but it might encourage other activists to take a chisel to statues that offend them. And lo…yesterday someone tried to chop down the […]

Very subtle I thought 🤫

Photocopier puns now, is it? That’s niche.

Good joke though. As the French say, Tray B an

You don’t need a Dead Cat when there’s a Sweaty Royal standing by to steal your headlines. What a well timed annoncement that was.

He didn’t realise it was an arse. He thought it was an elbow. In hindsight, he realises that some people might think that the photocopy of his elbow looks a lot like an arse. He apologises for any offence caused […]

Lennon used it too, to make a political point. Not sure what the black people of the world thought about it at the time.

Take ‘And the queer threw up at the sight of that” from Five Years. Presumably it was an acceptable word when he wrote the song, then for a long time it wasn’t, and now it is again, but it means something […]

…and it was all socially distanced, groups of two, same as you would have seen in any public park at the time.

But then he has to be absolutely sure there isn’t a photo.

Todays’ PMQs is going to be fun. Plan A would be to hide behind the investigation – can’t say anything now, why are you playing politics, we’re trying to get on with running the country.

But that won’t wash even […]

One EC makes drunken racist remarks = racist
Another EC makes drunken racist remarks = verbal stupidity

He won’t go. He doesn’t think he’s done anything wrong, and wouldn’t ‘do the right thing’ even if he had. And it doesn’t make sense to unveil your intended election-winner yet, because we’ll still be living in […]

With the distain of the true disciple I resented those who came late to The Smiths, and dismissed the last two albums as sold-out pop. Girlfriend in a Coma? Fuck off. Obviously I now know I was wrong about that, […]
