The tacky gold shit can be removed, paving taken up, and roses replaced fairly quickly once he's finally out of power. 200 year old trees take 200 years to replace.

'All' he does is score goals. That lad Johnson again! 3-0 #COYS

I’m so sick of seeing Farage and co on TV all the bloody time. They now know that if thy hold a press conference on any day ending in a ‘y’, they will be given endless coverage and broadcasting hours. All this for a party that could fit all of its MPs into a hatchback car.

Received a Tesco delivery. They couldn't find any plums in the huge Tesco in peak 🇬🇧 plum season. ¡Hola! Have some 🇪🇸 nectarines instead. Plum tart cancelled. An hour later, they sent an email helpfully suggesting I put the nectarines on top of a halloumi salad. I did not buy halloumi! 😂

Yet more evidence that Tesla's "Full Self-Driving" software will try to kill you. FSD will drive straight into the path of an oncoming train, ignoring flashing red lights at a railroad crossing. Elon Musk's dangerous and defective software has no place on our public roads.

Eurovision shouldn't be used to help a state that is currently committing genocide improve its image. secure.avaaz.org/campaign/en/...

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 COYS!

Football on a Tuesday night? Bring it on! #COYS

I've seen first hand the benefits of education in prisons/YOIs. (Working there, not incarcerated!) This is a retrograde step for the country. It will also save less money than it will cost in dealing with the additional reoffenders; police, courts, prisons, parole officers etc.

Soggytember in Sandhurst - and we're only halfway through!

I've written to Keir Starmer, Kemi Badenoch and Nigel Farage, urging them to join me in condemning Elon Musk's dangerous remarks inciting violence yesterday. As leaders, we must stand together and make clear Musk will face serious consequences for these actions.

Far right trying to pretend there were three million people at their Racist Pride march yesterday using AI photoshopped images of PARIS is sending me 😂😂😂😂😂

'Normal Island News' highlighting the absurdity of far right protestors calling themselves patriotic: Patriots celebrate "taking are cuntry back" by crayoning red crosses on walls and pissing in public open.substack.com/pub/normalis...

It was my sons 21st birthday party yesterday and his girlfriend and her sister, both Muslims of Arabic descent, stayed over at my house the night before and after, because they were so fearful of travelling across London by tube to get to us. Angry doesn’t cover it.

Since I started eating my curry: 3 goals for us 1 red card for them I now understand my mission for the rest of the season.🫡 #COYS #THFC #WHUTOT

Is this football or wrestling now? #COYS #WHUTOT

Rentier economy UK companies paid to turn-off wind turbines during high winds, electricity grid can't cope. Gas plants paid extra to produce electricity. 2021-25 cost £11.8bn. £8bn a year by 2030. Since privatisation National Grid paid £27.8bn dividend, £600m share buyback, neglected investment

“We reject the far right’s racist lies about ‘protecting’ women and girls. They are not defenders of women – they exploit violence against women to fuel hate and division,” says open letter, titled Women Against the Far Right. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

It would be so unbelievably easy to make a patriotic and pride case for Britain while simultaneously putting the racists and bigots firmly back in their box. I mean the speech writes itself. So why is nobody writing it?

It is possible. Here’s a piece by Bristol’s Council leader Tony Dyer news.bristol.gov.uk/press-releas...

MATHS TEACHERS: If you’re seeking ways to add quirky ‘real world’ maths to lessons next year I’ve updated my blog index robeastaway.com/blog/blog-in... . You can use it to find odd applications of (say) quadratic equations. It’s the sort of thing you might use as a lesson starter (1/3) #TMiP25

I am getting the impression this is a match I should be glad we can't get to see on TV in the UK. I thought one of the big reasons for ditching Ange for Frank was greater adaptability of tactics? We do not seem to be adapting... #COYS

#COYS #TOTBOU Tottenham Hotspur Starting XI: Vicario, Palhinha, Richarlison, Romero (c), Kudus, Johnson, Pedro Porro, Spence, Sarr, Bentancur, Van de Ven. Substitutes: Kinsky, Danso, Tel, Udogie, Gray, Bergvall, Solomon, Odobert, Davies.

Yikes! BBC release Lineker and sign Rooney? Heading for punditry relegation.

Xavi Simons holding that shirt and confirmed by Tottenham Hotspur. It is now safe to celebrate, Spurs fans! #COYS

"Djed Spence has been named in the England National Team squad for the first time. Having appeared for the Under-21 side 7 times between 2022 and 2023, Djed's impressive form for us since the turn of the year has seen the 25-year-old rewarded with a place in Thomas Tuchel's latest squad." #COYS

As I expected Ed Davey’s decision to boycott Trump banquet banished from any bulletins by 6pm. A chance for broadcasters to have the leader of the 3rd largest party set the agenda. Had it been Farage it would still be leading. Fairness now, sign the petition. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/71...

"Pat, why do you carry that ridiculous 600mm lens on long hikes?" Buddy, I can see mountains reflected in the eyes of a trailside pika.

I prosecute and defend the most serious sexual offences in our courts. The overwhelming majority of offenders are British-born. Overwhelmingly the victim is someone known to them, either a partner or relative. Anybody purporting to care about protecting women might start there.

"It wouldn't have hurt so much if he hadn't fought back," says victim blaming rapist.

This is just getting ridiculous. Nothing that has happened (or is reported below the headline to have happened) this weekend remotely justifies talk of an explosion or mass protests. The media are confecting a crisis, and, in some sections of it, hoping to provoke one. 1/3

No, Joe Cole, a footballer not playing for one match is not remotely like being sacked on Saturday and rehired on Monday. At no point is a highly paid footballer suddenly losing their income and worrying about losing their home just because they didn't play that one time. Divorced from reality.
