lots of people aggrieved at having to pay £90 for a covid jab. nothing can change it for now. only way to change it for the future is (if discussing it with a potential Reform voter) keep telling them very many NHS things we take 4 granted will become impossible or chargeable if they vote 4 Reform

why on earth would anyone take philadelphia to the beach…? ah I see it’s a Christmas offering. I thought I was reading a British newspaper; why not just say Winterval.

just in case you couldn’t love Ed Davey any more… he listens whichever music he fancies whenever he fancies listening to it

nice to start the day with a good news story

so trump’s loons think he should get the Nobel prize which is voted on and announced before his ceasefire even comes into force ? (yeah I know he ended seven other beautiful world wars)

The Press in thrall of Badenoch’s astonishing rabbit out of the hat of abolishing stamp duty. it’s not a vote winner, it’s just yet another recycling of dead Thatcherism. How many people today want social services and libraries cut further so that rich people can get thousands off their house price?

hey, the police… it was jenrick

"I 'ate that immigrant duck!"

Just appeared in our NextDoor. Reggie you are a fucking BOY

best cheese ever is obviously the spilt bits from cheese on toast a bit later when they’ve cooled… afternoon ruined by someone being too enthusiastic with the cleaning up

Live by the churn, get swallowed by the churn.

It's so nice to see Tristram, the child from 70s sitcom George & Mildred, has become the first woman Archbishop of Canterbury ever!! Well done Tristram! 👏 www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/c0... #SarahMullally #FirstWomanArchbishop #ArchbishopOfCanterbury #HistoricFirst #GMB #BBCNEWS

“I believe he is what the young people these days refer to as a ‘rapper’, your honour.”

trying to leave 3 Mobile. Text thing not working, so tried to phone them. 15:50 on Wednesday and their contact centre is closed

I know what you're thinking and no, that's not how they rescued him. www.irishexaminer.com/news/munster...

Jeff Tweedy rhyming Cops with Peppermint Schnopps

Heart Xmas officially switched on today across the UK, joined by the return of Smooth Christmas on London DAB.

the coward - he could have at least stayed where he was and faced the backlash

The Pro-European PAS party has secured 51 seats, an absolute majority in Moldova’s parliament. A good result and a slap in the face for Putin.

I’ve got two bigger lies for you Andy (1) that’s not a bastard bucket of coffee and (2) brexit

ANPR cameras in major cities can instantly identify the (maybe 15% or more?) vehicles being driven illegally without MoT - clampdowns would increase revenue to HMT and create jobs in car garages and the supply chain, plus potentially save lives with fewer death traps about. Why isn’t it being done?

💕💗💕

are we still allowed to say ‘trousers’ after Euripides or has it been judged racist. I know I’m on borrowed time here so I’m getting my pleasure where I can…

I hope he managed to find a dock leaf

nope… fell at the first hurdle again

Jeff Tweedy triple album.., is it today or tomorrow… sheesh, good training for Christmas this

haha… long time since I did a wtaf about a street in Birmingham but this is the road where I take my vehicle for MoT - quite an eye-opener. It’s not an Industrial Estate, just a road x.com/brummiegerry... usually takes ten minutes getting in and out while people move ‘vehicles’

explains why I would have been no good helping other people for a profession. I would definitely have been “ah well, bollocks to you then - suit yourself”

VIP guest of the Lord Mayor for International Day Of Birmingham celebrations #allrightbab #mregg

Farage: I’m a friend of the working man… on that note, we all remember thalidomide which was withdrawn from use before 99% of the working population was even born

#6Music playlist includes a song Loser with the key line “I’m A Loser Baby” plus a song warbling “Everything Means Nothing To Me” - does the late 90s Slacker revivalism scene have a name yet?

shit. I’ve used that crossing a thousand times. Once again someone hits a pedestrian and literally doesn’t give a fuck whether they’ve killed them: main focus, drive away quickly even if they could have been saved. Almost unbelievable, but we see these cunts on our roads every day

John Stapleton has died, sorry to learn this news. Always seemed like a good bloke: weird to think of times when itv didn’t have a string of right wing shock jocks as breakfast hosts

t-shirt day or not, this is an absolute fucking No from me : inexcusable. Radio 1 and 2 don’t play Bogshed or Twa Toots in the daytime

happy birthday Russ Abbott - wonder whether Frankie has still got his band…?

Best thing I’ve seen all day ..Thankyou 🇬🇧👏😎💙 Trump: “Other countries, and their leaders know that if I’m president, they can’t mess with us. They respect me too much." United Kingdom: “Heyyyyy Donald Trump (ooh, ahh), I wanna know-oh-oh-oh-oh, why you’re such a cunt.” 🇬🇧

good to see that Usain has done the right thing and included Lightning and Thunder amongst his kids’ names (old news obvz)

Christmas songs starting to air…

Tommy Cannon, Bobby Ball… Hello… Hello… Hello….

Mabel being a tourist crowd-pleaser in York. Yes, I have wet wipes.

just remembered the reviewer who knocked a star off this 1972 because it didn’t include Bright Eyes

did they base the Groyper mascot on Farage..?

weird journalism from katy balls to dangle the notion of ‘surprising friends’ but then not mention any…?!

Pickering Town v Runcorn Linnets is on the red button tomorrow… magic of the cup starts here

I’m starting to get a very slight inkling that if Over A Million people didn’t have their recycling collected for OVER NINE MONTHS in Manchester or London it’d be getting a bit more attention in the press and in Parliament. Just one of the ways in which Birmingham feels a bit neglected/overlooked?

Terry’s Chocolate Orange is 7.5% smaller this year, and they’re £2.50 even at B&M #bahhumbug

Ukrainian Cargo plane just went over (only checked the app as it sounded like a big old barstud)

moonlight flit with a suitcase to the bus-stop but things get more urgent and you can’t even take the case…
