The word "billionaire" should evoke the same feelings of horror as the word "paedophile".

I see Matt is now in the tank for Putin and denying the empirical evidence on the global erosion of democracy. Not surprising, I suppose.

That EU army the Brexit mob were so frightened of…starting to look like a pretty good idea now, eh?

Pssst, want to know what public money is really being spent on while Wes Streeting cancels another Labour pledge of building more hospitals? £11 billion 840 million of State aid (public money) is being pumped into 74 deregulated Special Economic Zones (SEZs), that's £160 million per zone. 👀💰💸💵

Take the fucker apart - he's a horrible, thieving gangster, which has been so plainly obvious for a long time.

The average lifespan was 35 and 50% of people died before they were 2. Is what they did.

Richard Tice yesterday.

When teachers, NHS & rail workers were on strike, The Sun called them 'greedy extremists'. The Govt 'farm support budget' = £2.4bn a year. Subsidies account for around 40% of all English farming's income (64% in 2020!). These tractor wankers clearly aren't busy enough. All they're farming is cash.

I have been hassled, insulted and bullied by these two reprobates all day today at work. The police have been informed, it's an ongoing inquiry and there's a reward on offer. Do you know who they are?

If that disgusting racist and grifting liar Nigel Farage shouldn't have been on Question Time even once, nevermind 38 times. Give this a Like, or better yet a RP.

Good morning wulferhampton have a wicked Wednesday you wonderful weirdos. It be Hump Day

Word of the day is a favourite, from old Scots. To ‘tartle’ is to hesitate while introducing someone because you have completely forgotten their name.

Watching too much Parliament does my head in but it’s fascinating today. I mean it really is. I can’t remember the last time something like this happened. So many good speeches. Oh and then Robert Jenrick opens his mouth. Oh dear. But largely it’s been brilliant.

As Janey Godley has her funeral, here is her roasting Michelle Mone. 😂

A couple in the coffee shop ordered soup today, so when I took it over to them I tried to look as unsteady as I could without dropping it and said "two soups" and they just looked at me blankly. 😐

As I have somehow surpassed 7k followers on here I thought it might be nice to do a giveaway: All 7 of my books to one lovely winner. Just share and like to be in with a chance! 😁📚

She shows all the signs of someone who has been praised for under-achieving all her life... More of a playground gang-leader than a Statesman-in-waiting...

Why is Kemi Badenoch so pleased with herself ???? She is as mediocre as it is possible to be.
