Heard about the article. Obviously didn’t read it. But the gist of it seems to be younger people prefer chicken sandwiches. Chicken is now ‘woke’

No Farmers No Food seems to have replaced Reform as the gammony profile picture of choice on social media.

Lass I used to work with said it was quite an autocratic right wing government. And also quite a sexist society, mainly driven by the former. Paying women to stay at home and have kids, under the guise of Catholic theocracy, keeping them out of the workplace to an extent. Especially what’s deemed to traditional male jobs. Which includes basically almost everything that pays well.

I could never quite work out if that Sunderland Global Media page / website was a pisstake or the person behind it just an idiot. Although the earnestness suggests the latter. Apart from that clip the fact they rate ‘Bally’ so highly sums them up. He’d just be another clogger who past through the club if it was NUFC. Even in one of the prolonged periods when we weren’t very good

Watched the first couple last night. Right up my street. Especially the nod to Cold War 60s spy thrillers in less than glamorous locales with the use of Slough House. I always preferred those dingy sort of anti-James Bond novels and films from that era (even though I like the Bond movies). Fantastic cast as well

Thing is Derbyshire is really good. So he absolutely walked into that one re: him already claiming that was the reason he’d bought the farm. In his appalling Sunday Times column. He’ll have been trying to be funny when he wrote it, he’ll have been gloating at those much less well off and he’ll have been playing to his boring as fuck wannabe edgelord fanboys. But he’ll have been telling the truth too. Or telling it like it is, as they say. Anyway, I hope his heart attack wasn’t too trivial

Absolutely destroyed

The 7 year thing on inheritance tax in general is a sliding scale btw. It’s not just you suddenly go from paying the full rate to 0% at 7 years. It’s to stop people giving away stuff just before they’re going to die purely to avoid their heirs paying inheritance tax. Re: the rage above, it’s people who can afford it being pissed off for having to pay tax. That’s it. Cry me a fucking river

The coverage in general is abysmal.

Like they’ll strike. I call bullshit. It’ll just finish them off if they cut off their source of income. What else they going to do? Threaten to stop voting Labour?

Fuck the jug-eared, checked-shirt wearing cunts.

Fo’ shizzle

Come on, don’t leave an idiot in suspense

Scotland never seem to do well when they’re fancied. That underdog mentality just suits them for whatever reason.

I can’t really listen to the smiths anymore. I like sone songs musically, because of Marr mainly, but I couldn’t take Morrissey’s lyrics seriously once I got beyond teen angst and discovered the joys of MDMA. Nowt to do with his politics or terminal misanthropy at the time. Although that obviously makes me now realise what a sad cunt he is. Also liked the point Taylor Parkes made that he never wrote a decent lyric once he stopped using his pre-fame notebooks, etc. See Bigmouth Strikes Again
