European. Virtue Signaller. History nerd. Trying to save the world: mixed results so far. I think the UK has probably run its course as a union of four nations. Views are all my own.
Daniel Hannan - aka Brexit Gollum - will never be troubled by the burdens of self-knowledge and self-awareness. #ClactonByElection #Binface #GetInTheBin
“The demonising of Reform has no place in a democracy” Writes the <squints at notes> Treasurer of Reform UK 🥴
According to halfwit-for-hire Paul Embery, the establishment is anybody whose views and ideas he doesn't like and doesn't agree with. #ClactonByElection #CountBinface #GetInTheBin
The likes of Claire Fox are deeply trivial. They contribute nothing of value and purpose. It's a national humiliation that Fox sits in this country's upper chamber.
Kemi Badenoch has three children. One wonders what kind of a world she wants them to inherit and live in. Or perhaps Badenoch's net zero and climate crisis denialism is entirely performative so that the Conservative Party can refill its coffers with donations from the fossil fuel lobby.
Then take the bus. Or walk. And stop being so whiny, self-absorbed, and tedious.
Those flags aren't even close to being big enough. He's a traitor and must be sent to the Tower of London immediately.

FIFA clearly has no interest in following its own rules and disciplinary code. But the USMNT has a choice. It can ignore FIFA's appalling decision. Coach Mauricio Pochettino can show the moral leadership that FIFA is lacking and not play Folarin Balogun against Belgium - not even as a substitute.
Former Tory health secretary Matt Hancock more than ever looks like a freshly boiled new potato.
MAGA voters: "Stop calling us stupid. We are informed, educated citizens and we are entitled to express our legitimate concerns regarding this country" Also MAGA voters: "LIBERALS HAVE TURNED THE WEATHER INTO A WEAPON AND ARE USING IT TO ATTACK OUR OWN BELOVED DEAR LEADER" #America250 #FourthOfJuly
Whisper it, but backward meat puppet Stephen Pollard has had a tantrum and publicly shat himself because he doesn't like a social media site which, unlike Twitter, doesn't let its users post racist abuse and other types of hate speech: and also CSAM material.
If the MAGA junta is ending US federal subsidies for new wind and solar energy projects, then it should also end direct and indirect federal subsidies such as tax loopholes for the fossil fuel sector. What's good for the goose should be good for the gander. To not do so is barefaced hypocrisy.
The Alberta Pipeline is a truly terrible name for Alberta's WNBA team. They should change it immediately.
There's a deep well somewhere waiting for Matt Goodwin to be thrown down it.
A week after doubling down on her comparison of education secretary Bridget Phillipson's policies to the Gestapo, Kemi Badenoch underlines how utterly deranged she is by comparing energy secretary Ed Miliband to a Nigerian military dictator. Social media has scrambled Badenoch's brain entirely.
I'm old enough to remember the gormless, senile, racist sexual predator currently cosplaying as American president telling Volodymyr Zelenskyy that Russia "held all the cards" in its war against Ukraine. The MAGA America junta is not known for its military & geopolitical strategic acumen #BBCLauraK
