The 'will of the people', as represented by a landslide election victory such as in 2019, is an instruction to a government to do what it promised, not a blank cheque for it to do whatever it chooses.

It’s terrifying to think how many people would be perfectly happy to live under a brutal dictatorship if they thought the brutal dictator was “on their side” and would mainly direct his brutality towards people they didn’t like.

Why am I almost breaking my back to survive when Tories are using £££ to get out of being blackmailed? Why are we told wages increase inflation when MPs have got £5k pay rise? Why am I struggling to pay energy bills when Tories like Braverman can claim £25k for a home she didn’t

Man goes to the doctor, says 'I'm depressed'.
Dr says 'treatment is simple, go see Pagliacci, he wasn't earning enough to get by in the entertainments industry so he did a 3 week online course & now he makes mental health assessments for Serco.'

Decided to open last night’s show (at the fabulous The Regent in Christchurch) with an in-depth description of my night out with Mark Menzies and a couple of Brazilian lads the night before.

Someone posts a clip calling me a misogynist because I disagree with JK Rowling and Joey Barton offers intellectual support. The same Joey Barton who spends most of his time dismissing the abilities of women footballers? Yep. But I'm the misogynist

What is it really like being a woman in sound? Exhausting and anxious. On one job, a staff ADR mixer decided he wasn’t happy with working with me, he began texting me privately telling me not to come to the studio and do the jobs I was booked on, that it was HIS department. 🧵

Positive news, but why limit this to 18 - 30 year olds?

A return to real free movement for all, which was always conditional, would also open up the EU single market & end some of the Tory Brexit bureaucracy !

* OFFICIAL APOLOGY *

An apology on behalf of the Party Treasurer

Sometimes in politics people get things wrong & have to apologise, and as party treasurer I feel I must do this now to the people who recently donated £5,000 to our party

I’m sorry to say this money…

I’ve legally, socially, and medically transitioned. Constantly misgendering me just sounds & looks stupid at this point.

Transphobes like to constantly misgender trans people on Twitter. They call it “correctly sexing” us. It’s just flat out bigotry.

Transphobes don’t think…
