JK Rowling got a full *decade* of press as a martyr for being "cancelled" (declared passe by people online) and meanwhile nobody considers it very interesting that a prominent left wing author is basically banned from entering or publishing in the United Kingdom for her politics

What is this for. Who finds this appealing. Why is so much money being spent on this. What is happening to peoples’ brains.

he met 4 trans women for lunch and banned polyamory what did they tell him

Is this seat that looks like it has a Derry accent conscious? Many users feel they're talking to a real person, perhaps one of your da's mates saying "Did ye aye mucker, right enough?". Scientists say it's time to consider whether they're onto something.

Asked my Dad what he thought about the budget. He has been typing for five minutes.

Good morning to Brazilian reporter Manuela Borges, who’s been waiting eleven years for this petty moment. ❤️ 🇧🇷

congratulations on producing a budget that seemingly every person in the UK loathes, no matter their level of income. another political masterstroke rachel.

Excited to say that’s it my very first day as Head of Publishing Administration for the Office of Budget Responsibility. Exciting things to come!

Me in November 2024: I really think 2025 will be my year. Me in November 2025:

Starmer-stans inevitable response to the coming budget 🤣🙌🏻

Andy Robertson saying he’s been thinking about Jota all day today and how he’s looking over him now has me in absolute bits.

It happened to me: I ordered an Apple Watch from Amazon (I know, I know, but a relative gave me a voucher from there as a birthday present) and instead I received a high beam night light and a dental mirror(?!)

We were not asylum seekers, but nearly 50 years on, my mum still wistfully talks of the jewellery she had to sell to pay for the plane tickets that got us here. Aside from this policy being unconscionable, it does make me wonder how many asylum seekers will have any such belongings to confiscate.

As a Manchester City fan, it gives me no pleasure to say that Federico Chiesa is my new favourite footballer.

Whenever someone in power blames immigrants on the difficulties facing working people, working class communities and those struggling to make ends meet in disadvantaged areas, remember two words: 'managed decline'.

It’s the ten year anniversary of this tweet. I’ve honestly never got over it. It’s the look on his face while being told off. All for a joke that didn’t quite go as planned. We’ve all been there

He's so widely and organically despised outside of those in politics/political media, it would be obscene, incredible. It would be a clever bit a trolling if it was being done with even the slightest bit of self-awareness.

My God, if the media and Labour bureaucracy manage to shithouse Wes Streeting into power it would genuinely be incredible. The absolute apotheosis of "Fuck you, we run this place, we don't give a shit what you lot think"
