Peter Mandelson has proved himself to be an extremely untrustworthy arsehole who would gladly sell out his allies to the worst of humanity, which is bad news for Labour but excellent news if Reform are looking for a new member.

I think my biggest issue with Kirk Bevins' darts calls is that he sounds genuinely more impressed with 171-177 than he is with 180.

This was an absolute hoot of an episode to record and I definitely recommend a listen.

Spice Girls reboot when. #Gladiators

Fury as millionaire couple don't buy their wine from Aldi like the rest of us.

This bin is getting mighty full.

I think I may be kinda obsessed with the Beckham drama partly because it's the only major news story right now that doesn't involve Donald Trump doing something awful.

Nobody seems to be talking about Mackenzie Morgan, who planned a bomb attack inspired by the Southport killjngs. No MPs, no right-wing figures, even the news outlets have barely mentioned it and I can't qwhite work out why... www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Yep, the Daily Mail is absolutely going full Meghan against Nicola Peltz Beckham.

Apparently, the Daily Mail is all "we have the OFFICIAL account of what happened with Brooklyn and Victoria dancing at his wedding from Vogue magazine." Dude, Brooklyn himself described what happened in the statement. How much more official can you get?

"Get me that video of Victoria dancing with Brooklyn at his wedding!"

Am I the only person to notice that #StarfleetAcademy has got Betazoid eyes wrong?! #StarTrek

Am I the only person who has a problem with a Starfleet Captain putting her legs and feet on the furniture? #StarTrek #StarfleetAcademy

Someone pass me some hard liquor. Now.

Imagine giving away your Nobel peace prize medal hoping for a presidency and getting a Trump-signed gift bag instead No words edition.cnn.com/2026/01/15/a...

So I think the official line is that while the Tories were breaking Britain Robert Jenrick, Nadhim Zahawi, Nadine Dorries, Jonathan Gullis, Lee Anderson and Andrea Jenkyns were all in another room and are completely blameless.

Quick reminder that Robert Jenrick felt that sending asylum seekers to a country where they would almost certainly die was too soft.

That's not a Reform Party, it's six Tory MPs piled up in a trenchcoat!

Nadhim Zahawi is bravely standing up to fight the corrupt system that wouldn't pay his expenses or give him a peerage.

Don't worry ladies, from now on it's only the kind of people who have no problem with giving Elon Musk money who will be able to create deepfakes of you naked. www.bbc.com/news/article...

@soozuk.bsky.social This popped up on my IG and I HAD to show you...

December 31st has rolled around, and once again I ended up thinking of Sooz Kempner's story of her NYE gig at a Freemasons. Anyway, Happy New Year and all that jazz I guess. threadreaderapp.com/thread/11807...

I just think they're neat. #Gladiators

When your kid puts out a carrot for Rudolph tonight, think of the other eight reindeer who have to work just as hard but are constantly overshadowed just because Santa had faulty fog lights one year.

The Tom Skinner sues Strictly story is getting wilder. Turns out his undeniable proof the show conspired to get him kicked off is... an email from an anonymous BBC source who has since resigned. Oh, he also implies his removal led to Tess and Claude quitting. Good luck in court.

But what happened to the Omega Male Energy running through his veins?

I think they're legally married now? #scd #strictly

WINNERS! #Strictly #SCD

This is just wild. He threw tantrums against journalists, confessed to cheating on his wife, played up his cockney wanker persona and was genuinely a shit dancer but no. It's a BBC conspiracy that got Thomas Skinner eliminated from Strictly first.

If George wins this over Karen I will smash things. #scd #strictly

I don't care what happens next week, Karen and Carlos are this year's winners even I have to make them Glitterballs myself. #Strictly #SCD

#Strictly #SCD

Together at Christmas? Have they forgotten Max is languishing in prison?! #CoronationStreet

New #KeepDancingPodcast is here! Featuring a toddler playing snooker, voter katamari calculations and a plea to stop censoring the murder ladies <3 #Strictly #SCD

Oh Nadine.

I think the #Strictly vote from this weekend proved a few things: - The final is going to come down to Karen and George. - Ringers will definitely never be allowed to win. - The audience has not warmed to Amber at all.

Non-human species communicating through a translator while in a square tank... I feel like we've seen this before. #DoctorFish

Something that really annoys me about Who at the moment is that Kate specifically said when we first met her she only went by Stewart because she wanted to be her own person but then RTD took over and she's now Lethbridge-Stewart all the time. #DoctorFish

What is the correct colour for lights on a Christmas tree? White, blue, yellow or multicoloured?

I had a ton of fun recording this and if you'd like to know what makes me tick at Christmas then it's definitely worth a listen.

We're living in a timeline where Donald Trump wins a peace prize while Ms Rachel is labelled a vile antisemite. I hate it here.

Benjamin Netanyahu won Eurovision. Donald Trump won the FIFA peace prize. Guess all we need now is for Nigel Farage to win Strictly.

So, yesterday Eurovision made a decision to swap Spain, Ireland, Netherlands and Slovenia (and possibly Iceland and Belgium too) for one (1) Israel. This begs the question, what next? I presume the EBU are hoping that they've taken a hit but now they can stem the bleeding. But can they? 🧵

Fuck the EBU, and fuck any country that doesn't have the moral spine to withdraw. Enjoy Tel Aviv 2026, arseholes. #Eurovision

Well, guess I'm done with #Eurovision then. Thanks hate for destroying another love.
