I want to know who was told to snort white powder but didn't cotton on that it might be cocaine.

Would be nice if individual MPs' rebellions were emphasised a bit more. imo that's the best way to get a judge of their character.

Like, if they're a Tory, you know that they're prima facie a oval office, but the next thing to do to judge them as an individual is look at how they differ from all the other Tory cunts. So if someone, to pick a completely random example, broadly agreed with all the other Tories except that they really really hated gays like even more than usual, it'd probably be no loss if someone tweeted anonymously at them imo

I don't know if the fact there's now a Greggs in the shopping mall under Canary Wharf is proletarian tanks being parked on the capitalist lawn, appropriation of working class culture, or just sad because it reminds me that Percy Ingles were an early victim of the pandemic, but it must mean *something*.

Yeah, they were on the precipice for a while and shut down a few branches, but lockdown finished them off - it's a little surprising Greggs didn't buy them out (or at least buy the stores) as it was Ingles that mostly kept Greggs out of the east end for so long. AFAIK only the Whitechapel Road one is now a Greggs and that happened before they closed.

RIP to a genuine East End legend, pour out an incredibly strong but strangely watery cup of tea in their honour.

(That Whitechapel branch was a Lyons during the war so is basically the high-street cake shop equivalent of Brick Lane Mosque, which is the only building in the UK that has been a church, a synagogue, and a mosque)

The Half Moon in Stepney was a Methodist chapel, a synagogue, a theatre, and is now a Wetherspoons - close enough?

(The building itself has been completely gutted twice and the frontage rebuilt in that time so it's a bit of a Ship of Theseus thing though).

I literally moved to Barking, was vaguely aware that it was a thing and then ~suddenly lockdown~ so I never got to try my local one.

And now I'm moving to Forest Gate in a month so rip i guess.

It's strange how these sorts of explosions just sort of delete houses from existence. Maybe strange isn't the right word. Disconcerting? I look at those pictures, and there's just a gap and debris where a home once was, nothing at all is left standing, and while the neighbouring houses are damaged, of course, it's an order of magnitude in difference compared to the non-existence of the home at the centre of the blast, like the targeted wrath of some vengeful god.

I really hope everyone recovers. :(
