Can recommend frying sprouts with smoked bacon & smoked garlic, then mixing with stuffing mix and sausagemeat to make a champion Christa's stuffing

Robbie Williams is an odd one, he did an interview on Adam Buxton's podcast a year or two back, and it was weird - he was talking with that "I have destroyed my brain with long term, careless drug use" speed and making a lot of allusions to his poor mental health as a result of the papers' treatment of a dumb kid who was given way too much money and power with zero guidance. And then buckles spends the rest of the interview gradually going harder and harder on joking about how poo poo he was, even to the point of eventually playing him a parody of Rudebox, which Williams again just sounds like he's being as polite as possible about it.

That was an awwwwwkward listen, but then so many of Buxton's interviews are (the Philip Pullman one just me left with the confirmation that the man has full on brainworms).

I think that photo was from the Sarah Everard vigil that got smashed by the police for breaking lockdown rules and/or representing a clear and present danger to public order vis 1) candles and 2) political thought.

The woman there was interviewed recently about (not intentionally) being treated as the face of it I think.

quote:

Jewish woman accused of antisemitism by Labour threatens to sue
Exclusive: Diana Neslen, 82, claims party has discriminated against her based on her belief in anti-Zionism

An 82-year-old Jewish woman, who is being investigated by Labour for alleged antisemitism for the third time in less than three years, is threatening legal action against the party, claiming it has unlawfully discriminated against her based on her belief in anti-Zionism.

Diana Neslen, who lives in east London, regularly attends her local synagogue and keeps a kosher home but has been accused of antisemitism for tweets she has posted about Israel and Zionism.

In a pre-action letter to Labour, her lawyers, Bindmans, say the party’s investigation is totally unjustified and disproportionate as it rests on a single tweet from 2017, which said “the existence of the state of Israel is a racist endeavour and I am an antiracist Jew”.

This goes for all of the green cruciferous veg. Broccoli, Kale, Cabbage, etc. are all loads better when fried than boiled. You don't even need to use much (or sometimes, any) oil/fat to do it.

Broccoli, particularly tenderstem, is really good if you just whack it into a medium-hot skillet and let it char in places.

Modern sprouts are much better than 80s sprouts, even if you have the soap gene.

Yeah broccoli and carrots were both things I grew up hating only to realise in my 20s that they're delicious if you do anything other than boil them.

The only vegetable that is better than the sprout is the potato and that is because the potato is just nature's bread.

It's a strong bitter taste with sprouts. The soap taste is the same thing but for coriander iirc

Boil them if you like, just don't boil them to mush.

Vegetables should still crunch after cooking IMO.
