I must apologise for Richard Stupid Tice not understanding that no gas or oil is âour ownâ because Maggie Thatcher sold it off, so it is all sold by private companies on the global market. Norway did not sell theirs off and now have a sovereign wealth fund of ÂŁ1.6trillion.

I don't like to gratuitously slag off the Littoral Combat Ships*, but this is basically the concept they were designed for. I mean, good luck persuading anybody it's a highly sinkable concept they want to be aboard at the time, but... *You read that right. I don't like it. I love it.

TV shows should be required to have an

logo in the corner of shows like "Battle of the Brands", which is currently on
@channel4tv.bsky.social
. It's just a very very long advert for Nandos and KFC, complete with lots of excerpts from actual adverts for the products.

Am sticking with my bet that the right is reading this wrong and that the majority of voters are not at all unhappy Starmer has upset Trump by holding back from a war whose purpose and end game no-one seems able to define.

Worth listening to The Rest is Entertainment this week on Dubai influencers. Key point: UAE government pays people to move to Dubai to be influencers and promote a particular image of the place - luxury & safety. People paid to leave a liberal democracy & 'shill' for an autocratic socialist state.

What theyâre basically saying is that Starmer and the UK isnât allowed to operate an even moderately independent foreign policy outside of the United States. That is both ahistoric, wrong and weird for people who constantly tell us how sovereignty is what matters most.

Controversial, but in theory I'm not against this. I've long thought that asylum should be temporary as long as protection is needed, but there has to come a point where somebody has been in their new home so long that it is now just their home. The big Q for me is 1/2

In 2020 Nigel Farage said of MPs who defect & refuse a by-election âitâs not right, itâs dishonorableâ Giving voters the right to have a say on an MPs defection is vital to restoring trust in our politics - and isnât that exactly what the government has pledged to do?

The replies to this are horrifying and, frankly, incredibly ignorant. Tics are literally involuntary. They do not indicate the existence or absence of secret prejudice. They are NOT random, but can be socially contextual - the urge to say or do the worst possible thing in a given moment.
