For many years I’ve advocated a radical stance on diversity, inclusivity, support for marginalised minorities, particularly of a gender variety, the abolition of all statues of slavers, imperialists, colonialists, bankers, wankers, skanks, lanky people and any form of old white men. The worst kind of human. The ultimate dead end of the spectrum. And I – Read More-
She’s gone. La Sturgeon. Or, as numerous memes have alluded to this week, Le/La /Autre Sturgeon. But you can’t give credibility to memes. They’re insulting, abusive, should be banned on decency grounds and are incredibly funny. But the legacy Nicola Sturgeon leaves behind after her eight years at the helm of Britain’s most Scottish of – Read More-
Well if the words to that football chant are correct, I’ve completely stopped singing. Not in the car. Shower. Kitchen whilst ‘creating!’. No-where. If you sing when yer winnin’, my voice has been silenced. My team have stopped winnin’. Even the other North London team has stopped winnin’. EVERYONE’S stopped winnin’ round our way. And – Read More-

A double album which had – Read More-
Oh! My! Go-o-o-d!!! You just won’t believe this! Its just unreal. Its, like, totally incredible and, quite honestly, hard to believe. In a really unbelievable way? Ya know what I mean? But there’s this guy, right, and he’s like ‘really old’ and little and balding, wears glasses, and, like, he can make as much money – Read More-
I’d like to make a statement on behalf of Manchester City Football Club, Sheikh Mansoor, Lloyds Bank plc but NOT ADUG (Abu Dhabi United Group) which is owned by the sheikh but is nothing whatsoever to do with the football club or anyone involved with the operation at the Etihad ground. Manchester City remain innocent – Read More-
You are not your brother’s keeper. Its official. He does shit; you’re not to blame. Why would you be? Ain’t fair to state otherwise. So why are you responsible for a great great great great great great grandfather? Who lived hundreds of years ago, you never met and, other than some much-diluted DNA, you have – Read More-
The Mail is the most read paper in the country, normally because its online editions are free. And quite frankly, who would pay for shit like this? The country’s in an economic crisis, the prime minister fragile, leader of the opposition worthless, we’re on the verge of nuclear war, Chelsea just spent 300 mil in – Read More-
Because my bedtime book, The Ink Black Heart, weighs 14.7 Kg, I won’t take it on the tube. So I need a tube ‘read’. And if I read another novel I’ll get the two confused in my head. It happens. What’s Jack Reacher doing at Hogwarts FFS?? Why, when Harry met Sally in a deli – Read More-
