Protesting has become the UK’s main industry. All other work ceases at the opportunity to get your keffiyeh and take to the streets waving your Palestinian flag, to sing a few songs which sound nice, at an ISIS convention, but are in fact calls for a (proper) genocide. So to ‘stop the babies dying’, it’s – Read More-
Having a ‘rant’ is good for the soul. Just don’t let anyone else hear. Not anyone who might be offended. I ‘rant’ often. Then I read it through (sometimes) and check that what I’ve written will only deeply offend those I want to deeply offend. But writing such things gives you the wonderful, face-saving, ‘power – Read More-
I went out for dinner last night. I’m an omnivore. I can even do ‘vegetarian’, if I have to. And if it’s at Bubala, I don’t even complain. But it wasn’t about me. We were going out with me mate Mark. And he’s a different kettle of lettuce leaves altogether. Mark eats meat. Ok, he – Read More-
Why do we read books? Ok, or ebooks, for those literalists who can’t possibly be so unprecise as to equate the two. We read, same as watching a movie, to ‘take us away’. From reality. From ‘life’. From all the shit rushing round our minds. We detach. We take a time out and visit Slow – Read More-
I heard someone on the radio this morning saying the Manchester Murders were Kier Starmer’s fault. Because of his obvious failure to address rising antisemitism in our (once) fine land of freedoms for all and sundry, but possibly not for Jews. My initial thought was ‘well, steady on, the man’s a worthless robot who can’t – Read More-
Yom Kippur is a happy day. Ok, you don’t eat, but instead you’re elevated to a truly angelic plane, and you’ve never seen an angel in Burger King, have you, so for 25 hours, it ain’t gonna kill you to fast (STARVE!!!). And it’s happy because, if you take working and eating out of the – Read More-
I haven’t taken the tube to work for 2 weeks!!! I am now officially… a biker!!! Although you get less ‘!!!’ for an e-bike because there’s no real kind’a effort involved. But we can still enjoy the same levels of smugness as the boys in Lycra. (And gels in Lycra, who are much nicer to – Read More-
Yesterday the Labour Party Conference began. Possibly Kier Starmer’s last one as the leader. Because, according to reports, either Andy Burnham will soon be taking over the leadership, or we’ll just go straight to a General Election which Nigel Farage will win with a majority of 100 seats. So really, Kier might as well go – Read More-
So I’ve checked my ‘digital ID’ and it turns out I’m an AI avatar called Rodney. I’m non-binary, poly-sexual (sleep with parrots), and I live on a commune of like-minded deviants in Ayrshire. I have a National Insurance number but choose not to use it for work, only for claiming benefits. Which I do in – Read More-
Look, I’ve talked about Donald Trump, Sir Kier Worthless, Sadiq (effin) Kahn, Thomas Frank, Benjamin Netanyahu, Nigel Farage, Lila, Joey and Tommy bloody Robinson. But what about me? I haven’t played tennis for 8 weeks!!! And its all about hips. And scars. You see I’ve given up my season ticket at Spurs and replaced it – Read More-
