I come to bury Suella, not to praise her. Rishi thought he’d rid himself of the curse, only to have her pen a 3-page, full-frontal, hardcore assault on the little twit the very next day. Not exactly a ‘love letter’. And yet… and yet… Suella Braverman said a lot of horrible things which upset ever-such-a-lotta-people. – Read More-
Its funny how you can read a whole article in a newspaper and then, from a two page spread, just one tiny little, seemingly inconsequential comment leaps out, jags you in the eye, sticks in your teeth and punches you just above your testicles. Our new Health Secretary is Victoria Atkins. It’s now her job – Read More-
Suealla Braverman is no longer the Home Secretary! She’s gone! “Resigned” (sacked) after a minor difference of opinion with, pretty much, everybody. She upset the Prime Minister, pissed off the police, made enemies of the Pro-Palestinian marchers, royally aggravated the Labour party (most things do that) and only made friends with a group of neo-nazis. – Read More-
I tried to mis-spend my youth, fairly successfully really, because it seemed more fun than the alternative. But only with the wonder of hindsight do I realise I had some kind of dyslexic ailment/affliction/disability/disease? Yet because dyslexia wasn’t invented until 1993 (Ronnie Dyslexia, et al, ‘Plobrem pselling in chlidrne’), I was just called ‘thick’. Although – Read More-
I’m marching today for peace. Well, actually, for a ceasefire in Gaza. That’s the headline cause for the march. Ceasefire. Yeah. And 50,000 of us misguided tossers parading round the streets of Westminster shouting for ‘jihad’ (no idea what that means but it sounds great) and ‘from the river to the sea!’ (I asked three – Read More-
Hello, my name is Suella Braverman and I am your Home Secretary. All of England. Few other bits too. But please note: that is HOME secretary, not HOMELESS secretary, that will be someone else. Anyone else. Not me. Not my job to pander to those spoiled and entitled dossers who choose to live in tents – Read More-
The new Beatles single is out. Its called ‘Now and then’ and its a fab… song, featuring all the usual suspects, but not necessarily in the correct order. Because this song, although an ‘original’ John Lennon track, was deemed, in 1977, when he writ it, too shit for the Beatles. But then he died, just – Read More-
I’m interested in words. They way they sound, their meanings, because all words can mean slightly different, or even vastly different things. And I love a new word. Just because. And if its an Arabic word, so what? I can borrow it. Most of the Arab world uses the word ‘naqba’ to describe the day – Read More-
It has become customary, in a very short time, for football managers to ‘blame VAR’ for all their woes. Every game lost is down to that cumbersome and miserable system which combines flawed technology with incompetent analysts. And never has this VAR-scapegoating been so apparent as in yesterday’s splendid match between Newcastle and Arsenal. Newcastle – Read More-
We’re top of the league. Don’t know if you know that. But we are. We have about 4 hours left, I reckon, before Man City (probably) or Liverpool (possibly) overtake us, or 6 hours before Arsenal play at Newcastle. Then we play Chelsea on Monday night. Ooooohhhh. I’ll try to put this, intellectually, into a – Read More-
