More evidence that Burnham is basically just going to do Starmer but northern.

In my experience, people who ask AI to find answers for things are basically just communicating that they’re too busy and occupied (and therefore too important) to find the answer themselves.

Of course I did try at the start of the week to think about buying an outdoor cheminea with grill but never got around to it. So if there’s anyone to thank for this glorious weather, it’s probably me.

This does look fantastic.

Laburnum for the north.

We did it, lads. We banned trans people from toilets. Now to sit back and watch house prices come down and vegetables stop rotting on supermarket shelves and we'll all come together and feast on Cadbury's Creme Eggs as big as your head, m'boy, And we'll watch Morecambe and Wise, who did NOT die

Duolingo is such a pass-agg little bitch isn’t it? “Uhhhh you haven’t done a lesson yet today. Maybe you should do one?” No, you fucking do one. Fancy making everyone feel shit about something they’re only doing for a hobby.

Yes, actual for real Trumpism with direct targeted harassment of public figures, just for starters, and not the lobby journalists throwing a hissy fit because members of the public called them shitheads on Twitter dot com.

Faragity, Faragity, there’s no one like Faragity, For he’s a spiv in grifters shape, a monster of depravity. You may meet him at a Murdoch do, you may see him on the telly, But if you go to Clacton town, then Faragity’s not there! (with apologies to T.S. Eliot 😁😼)

A microcosm of Labour’s problem. Not racist enough for the racists, too racist for their own supporters.

I wish that people would take the trouble to inform themselves and that policy would reflect reality. www.theguardian.com/world/2026/m...

Meeeet the new boss… Same as the old boss…

The friendship between Jo and Kush on Race Across the World is the perfect antidote to the whole toxic masculinity narrative. The kids are ok, they’re wonderful and they really know how to care for each other.

Pleased for Villa. It sort of feels like they’re having the season we had last year, manager starts under pressure with not many new signings but gets the team going and ends with CL/winning a cup. I hope they don’t have the “hangover” season that NUFC have had.

Laughable statement from Southampton. Claiming they’ve effectively been fined £200m. They haven’t. They’ve just blown their chance of competing in the ‘£200m game’ by cheating.

Yep.

Seems Discovery have decided that the Champions League final will NOT be free to air. Moronic decision. Driven by pure greed and a complete lack of understanding of football fandom Nukes the chance to platform the TNT offering to a captive audience of potential subscribers.

That’s why I left.

This is great and all, until you realise that the Reuben family - and Jamie himself - hoard billions of pounds which is the very reason food banks exist. Nevermind him making personal donations to Johnson when he was PM. Forgive me for not wanking him off over his "generosity".

Noel Gallagher filing out 5mins before the final whistle like a real hardcore fan supporting his team to the very end, win or lose. The tiresome, tuneless tit that he is. #TheFootball

Rather pleased to see Southampton getting punished like the big cheating bastards they are.

Come on Boro! #ForTheNorth

Fuck sake man. Do any of these pricks not know that public service is bloody hard work and wouldn’t you think to find out before wasting tax payers’ time and money on an ego trip?

“It’s the size of Belgium”. Is it Belgium?

It's been very noticeable how British Muslims, British trans people, and migrants have been thrown to the wolves. And they're clearly teeing up disabled people for the same treatment. It's horrifying that what counts as our 'progressive' press barely deigns to acknowledge it.

Vote for me, I represent cha… Oh.

Hmm, I wonder if it’s got anything to do with two decades of stagnating wages and unchecked capitalism pushing up the prices of everything while simultaneously providing shittier and shittier goods, and housing that is insane by any metric. Is that why people can’t save much for their olds age?

LONG READ Newcastle’s season was destined to fail and Eddie Howe knew it #nufc www.telegraph.co.uk/football/202...

Yeah, we’ve all seen Saltburn haven’t we?

Tale as old as tiiiiiime…..

It hasn’t got WORSE. It’s gone up, which is essentially a good thing. Please stop (a) lying about this and (b) not calling people out who make this evil and dishonest assumption.

“The money was just resting in the account”.

Pure shite.

Somewhat dispiriting that yesterday’s announcement about a suggested Olympic bid for the north only focused on Manchester and how great it is.

We’ve begun watching the most recent series of Race Across the World (no spoilers please). The places they go are unreal and what’s nice is that the teams seem like nice people. Particularly like the two Liverpudlian lads, a credit to their city and good role models for young men.

GIVEAWAY! Dead Weight is coming out next week and to celebrate I'm giving away two copies that have been personally bitten by Uggi and will be personally signed by me and shipped to the winners wherever they live! To enter just like and share this post and I'll select the winners on May 26th!

Seeing a lot of “Howe Should’ve done this earlier in the season…” We played a game every 3 days between end of November & losing to Sunderland at home & it wasn’t much better before that. It’s enough time for travel, recovery & some video analysis, not integrating a striker with anew style #nufc

Fyi, we don't necessarily need world class stuff. We need to fund grassroots. Not just in terms of music, just in general.

Entirely possible to think that Labour have underperformed and been poorly led in the last two years and to also think they haven’t done anywhere near enough to publicise what achievements they’ve made.

One Tory act of vandalism following their 2010 victory was cutting funding to Gordon Brown’s Sure Start programme, eventually closing 1400 centres, which had made significant differences to life chances. One of Starmer’s failings is not shouting about bringing them back. I only found out today. ⬇️

A change of prime minister would be a big opportunity for Nandy, a high-flier who for some reason hasn't had a government job for the last two years.

Anti-racist and Palestine protesters outnumber far right in London ⭐️Marchers showed solidarity with Palestine and opposed the far right and the state’s ‘hate march’ smears socialistworker.co.uk/anti-racism/...

The monetisation of online hate speech has created an industrial sized grievance machine on many sm platforms. It is making some people quite unwell. There also seems to be no teeth for de-escalation ie law enforcement or targeted government regulation re monetisation.

Enjoy Eurovision folks. But not for me. Not this year 🇵🇸
