I mean is it me? Last time I looked I thought I was a centre left liberal but now it seems I'm an anarcho-communist with terrorist sympathies.
If there's one thing Starmer's Labour have done right it's making me sound cooler.

Re: Saturday 18th & Sunday 19th October 2025
Also I was astonished I tell you to hear that Rachel Reeves is going to go with the Conservative flow and take disabled people's cars off them.
Because that's what's bringing this country down, those spongeing disabled layabouts getting 'free' cars that they actually have to pay for.

Re: Thursday 16th October 2025
Question Time came tonight from Bishop's Stortford. One of those places I'd heard the name of but had no idea where it was. Judging by tonight’s programme it sounds like another of those soulless London commuter towns that's being expanded by the day. Yuck.

Nope, at least not whenever they've been in government in my adult lifetime.

The eagle eyed amongst you may notice there are only 4 stones in my picture of the Duddo 5 stones.

Anyway I can mostly breathe through my nose again and the sinus pain has mercifully abated. It's like there's a target, a point of pain, on your forehead moving around, impossible to ignore. All you care about is it not moving into one of your eyes because that's when the real fun begins.

Despite the fact I'm producing an impressive amount of mucus I'll be having a go at this tonight because as my wise old grandma always used to say the best thing for a cold is awful political television and a skinful of red wine.

I've come down with a shitty cold, thought 'fuck this', and turned the fire on a night early. Ahhh...blessed warmth and the distinctive aroma of nearly 5 months worth of dust being burned. Luxury.

It's that mercifully brief time of the year again where Sky regrets the law he imposed on himself when he was young and stupid that he's not allowed to put the heating/fire on until October.

No QT review tonight I'm afraid. Had to rush North because my Mum had a funny turn yesterday and we thought she might be about to depart this world (it would appear to have been a false alarm because she seems to be back to normal). So unfortunately I'll have to miss Richard Tice vs Billy Bragg.

Isn't it really weird that crypto scammers and right wing political parties who want to obscure their funding have become best mates?
