If I've learned one thing in life it's that anyone who says they went to the School of Hard Knocks or the University of Life will undoubtedly be a cunt.

Correction: Bangaranga is Graham Norton for "thank fuck"

Phew. Eurovision will continue. I don’t think it would have if Israel had won.

It’s not nul points for the UK this year #Eurovision

Well. That’s different from the UK. #Eurovision

Sir Terry

What is this mawkish shit on #BGT?

Shameful that it has come to this. Small businesses have been shafted by Brexit - and for every small business there's an owner who is trying their hardest to make it work and this is just deeply unfair. But you know... blue passports and all that.

The absolute FUCKING arrogance of John Simons stepping aside, the absolute FUCKING entitlement of Andy Burnham assuming that constituents will just automatically vote for him because he's so fucking special. This will cost the taxpayers hundreds of thousands of pounds because Andy wants to be PM.

There once was a young man called Streeting, Whose leadership no-one was seeking. A duplicitous cad, He was made to look bad, By attending the world's shortest meeting.

As a business owner, if I had an employee telling their pals they were going to quit tomorrow (the day after I launched a big new campaign for the year including ideas they had pitched) and the only reason they were quitting was to screw me over, I'd probably sack them.

So let's assume Streeting does resign, triggers a leadership contest and wins. The big question is who'll be Leader of the Opposition when he loses his seat at the General Election?

Please let Starmer have fired Streeting. Please let Starmer have fire Streeting. Please let Starmer have fire Streeting. Please let Starmer have fire Streeting. Please let Starmer have fire Streeting. It won't save him but it would be funny.

Someone at Radio 2 has an evil streak. Things Can Only Get Better playing

Stop reporting it as if it's a new series of The Traitors, for God's sake. So tired of this really important stuff being treated as some kind of panto put on for the enjoyment of the political hacks/bloggers/podcasters.

Honestly, the thought of either Burnham or Streeting as PM is just horrific. Almost make Badenoch look palatable. Almost.

“What is a transphobic c***?”

Apparently Josh Widdicombe is being considered for the Strictly hosting gig. I wouldn’t be mad at that.

Rowling has a Trans immigrant Green MSP now. The tantrum that will be going on in that mouldy room will be epic.

I'm so sick of men thinking they are entitled to do whatever they want to women. In fact, I could end that sentence after word 5. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Where are my election law geeks? I've not kept up to date with the law since I stopped working in politics, but could this count as "Undue Influence"?

"Vote for me and I'll put the concentration camp somewhere else" We really need to pause and reflect on what happened to discourse in this country that this is seen as a thing you can say without being expelled from public life

Every single fucking time there’s an antisemitic attack people immediately jump in with this bullshit. Fuck all the way off.

Once again Melania shows us that she isn't a poor little hostage girl, tied to a man she hates. She's just as hateful, hypocritical and vile as her husband.

Transphobia is always gender policing and the gender policing never stops with trans people

I feel like this article needs the angry goose meme on it asking exactly *who* cost the taxpayers £400,000 because it sure as hell wasn’t Beth Upton

This tweet is highly defamatory and Martina Navratilova should be fired from BBC Sport for it. It demonstrates an horrendous level of hatred for a trans woman (who was cleared of all wrongdoing in a recent tribunal) because she is a trans woman.

This has never happened before. Do I need a new starting guess word?

My heart is breaking for my Jewish friends. Three attacks on synagogues in London in one week is horrific. There’s no excuses. We‘re seeing vile anti-semitism run amok and become normalized.

Obviously there's a lot more going on and much bigger issues with transphobia but a part of it is people encountering the mildest philosophical problem, realising things aren't nearly as clear cut and obvious as they thought and absolutely losing their shit.

It might be time for the King to come down with a diplomatic very bad cold. Not enough to be dangerous, but enough to stop him traveling.

It is genuinely abhorrent that a major festival would choose to book a headliner who released "Heil Hitler" *less than a year ago*. The muted outcry to it is truly chilling, too. We are deep into an antisemitism crisis that too many people want to ignore or deny.

I'm not great at working from home. There's books and cats and my bed to distract me. I'm not great at working from work either... maybe I'm just not great at working and should retire to become a lady of leisure.

And why no one should vote for this tosspot! *Alt text: Two revolting males: the one on the left grey-haired & grinning in a sychophantic way; the one on the right has his arm round him & is looking at the camera as though threatening people to come at him. They are Nigel Farage & Andrew Tate.

Pure evil that was been laundered as "gender critical" by so many in the media. They are bigoted freaks

If @zackpolanski.bsky.social truly wants to be taken seriously as a party leader he must condemn this guy and make it clear the Greens will never employ him again. Batshit antisemitism and conspiracy theories aren't acceptable/

fuck absolutely everyone involved in this decision

Here's what's going to happen: every woman, cis, trans, intersex, will have to undergo a humiliating test for a specific gene. A non-trivial number of women who have lived as women for their entire lives will find themselves labelled as "not women" because biology is more complicated than one gene.

Trying a new takeaway tonight. Indian (I think) woman in as a customer. insisting on going into the kitchen and quizzing the chef. Honestly I think I love her.

jk rowling spends money she makes from harry potter on stripping rights away from me personally. this is not a hypothetical scenario. that's where it goes if you buy wizard crap.

This is completely insane, lads. It’s not her that’s obsessed with anything, it the tiny gaggle of absolute headbangers who have not stopped screaming at her about it for five years. *You* are the wackos here, not her.

This is heartbreaking. Please stop for a moment and consider the children caught up in this. Imagine you're a trans child - already a difficult experience, to put it mildly - and you've found a hobby you enjoy with friends, and now you're being kicked out for being trans. It's cruel.

Well, as a adult woman in my 50s can I just say I feel so much safer now that a bunch of bullying bigots my age have forced what I'm sure is a tiny number of trans children out of an organisation that previously welcomed them into a safe space. We're all so much safer now.

Destroying ambulances run by a Jewish group does not make you a good person: it makes you an anti-semite. And wanging on about "but Israel" as you seek to defend destroying ambulances run by a Jewish group similarly makes you an anti-semite.

TERFS will happily tell you that they speak for all women. Turns out the seemingly conservative (small c) WI actually do represent more of us than I imagined.
