The thing Adrian Chiles never writes about is that he is an absolute world of poo poo with HMRC who are still pursuing him relentlessly for millions of pounds despite him winning the initial case.

So Chiles columns are like all those lovely movies that Robert de Niro made to pay off his tax bill? Makes sense with the low effort.

In other interesting Celeb HMRC news. I hear that two extremely well known celebrities are quietly bankrolling one of the other lesser celeb cases currently being dragged through the courts in the hope that a win takes the heat off them

Could go either way. Jeremy Corbyn didn’t know who Ant and/or Dec was and for a minute it looked like it would sink him quicker than the antisemitism smears. Though that’s more to do with it being Corbyn, obviously.

Remember when Corbyn was too busy gushing about an episode of Coronation Street to the make-up people that he had to run to his actual live interview and arrived literally seconds before the cameras cut to him.

Reddit is a shithole, but I came across this thread and it made for depressing reading:

https://www.reddit.com/r/AskUK/comments/wrci0q/people_who_dont_like_foreigners_moving_to_the/

The top theme seems to be “people speaking a language I don’t understand” and “people having their own culture undermines ours”.

Ah yes, English culture.

One off accidental exposure probably isn't that harmful unless you're eating a whole loaf, breathing it in, or you're already seriously immunocompromised (HIV/Aids, on transplant medicine, etc.).

If you keep doing it though, it increases your risk of cancers and immune system disorders, even if the Express says it's patriotic. If there's any visible mold then it's already threaded mycelium through the whole slice if it's sliced bread. Bin.

Of course for the average age of an Express reader it's probably only going to cost them about 1 quality adjusted life-week, the issue is they want to normalize that poo poo for the rest of us.

Because it is 2022, and we can't have nice things.

In all seriousness, I think McDonalds got rid of all breakfast items that required folded eggs/scrambled egg mix. In doing so, they utterly ruined their breakfast menu and did me a massive favour.
