Bizarre choice of venue for a photoshoot!



Apparently she wants to be known as the Iron Chancellor.

I know, I know, don't kink shame.


Meanwhile in dead bird chat: Douglas Henshall (the actor) seems like a good egg.

Having been a lurker at that time - maybe a portal has opened into 14 years ago and posts are leaking through

To my eternal shame I bought into cleggmania for my first UK general election, sold on the promise of federalism, drug law reform and proportional representation. Too bad they sold out every one of their good principles all for the promise of getting to join the Tories in kerb stomping benefits claimants in the wake of the great recession for 5 years

Fool me once, etc

It's 2034. George Galloway wins a Battersea by-election with a single-issue campaign on the issues around puppy smuggling. The establishment, stunned and afraid, sends the PM out to the podium holding a kitten. Teachers have to pay to build their own schools. A Kit-Kat costs £15 on the black market.

Just in relation to this, just want to post this here as from what I can tell this is the only place on the entire internet where this song exists. It was never on any of the soundtrack albums or released commercially.

Police Officers having discretion on when some racisms are fine and when some racisms are naughty is not something anyone wants.

Mortgage havers, don't let your mortgage go onto the default rate if your deal comes to an end. It was always a bad idea, but now my provider, Santander, is saying that if let mine roll over onto the standard rate, it'll be 8.5% (up from 2.39)

Someone has just pointed out that in addition to what's his face from Blur being selected as a Labour candidate, Tom Gray of Gomez is the Labour candidate for Brighton Pavilion. So very, very much trying to rerun the Cool Britannia vibe.

As someone who has had a severe anxiety disorder for years at a time at different points in my life, one of the single most important things I've gotten better at through reflection, meditation, and therapy is learning to tolerate discomfort and anxiety and not let it dominate my life. Whether it's career anxiety, health anxiety, getting in a fight with my partner, dealing with family drama, etc., being able to distance myself from the feelings provoked by discomfort and accept that such experiences are not an aberration from how life should be but simply another facet of life has been immensely helpful.

It takes a lot of energy and effort to get there, but it can be done.

Gove is such a wriggly little toad of a man and about as textbook an example of a politician not answering the question put to them as it gets. Glad he's getting dragged and pinned a bit, not that he'll ever give a gently caress, the weasel.

They did. They even denied photoshopping his hat to make him appear Russian. The Kremlin backdrop was 'just one of those things', and was originally used for a story about Gavin William's trip to Russia the week before. It was just convenient to use it again for Corbyn because <reasons>



The BBC was eventually cleared of any wrongdoing

If GBNews repeats the same breaches, then OFCOM might actually do another toothless thing that will have no effect
