How do Labour, Lib Dems and Greens compete with a cult though? You cannot use rationale and facts. You cannot use empathy. You've got to offer something better. And in Labours case they seem to want to pander to the cultists.

How about "we dust wah selves down" ?

This whole "will of the people" is v frustrating. If it's the will of the people to set fire to hotels housing immigrants, it doesn't make it right. It means that the "people" have been gaslit by the media and grotesque politicians like Nigel Farage!

I suggest he reads the chapter about a certain Boris Johnson in 'How they broke Britain'. Could also dip in the chapter about a chap called Andrew Neil

Lying and liars are fine if they're on "his side"

Our 16 year old was at the learning a new language (South Korean) stage of revision procrastination a week back.

Always interests me the English football fan, singing anti German songs about WW2. They are only concerned with the idea of victory ("we won the war ergo we're better than you") not necessarily the defeat of fascism.

Interesting though that Vance and Musk are portraying UK and Europe as a place where you'll get arrested for "free speech". Why do far right despots always do what they accuse the other of?

Listened to the Newsagents last night and (my not being able to tell difference between the accents aside) the people Sopel encountered could have been MAGA supporters, such was their way of thinking, viewing politics/life.

Have similar dreams about a house I used to let. In the dream I'd let myself in, have a shower, even go to bed and then remember I didn't live there and the occupants could be home any minute.

Liz Truss, temporary PM, full time neo-conservative try hard

I also think there is a level of thick that defines the lack of shame

Farage: "who's that young go getter?" 30p Lee: "that's Liz Truss sir, failed Tory PM, crashed the pound, figure of utter ridicule" Farage: "Truss aye, I like the cut of her jib"

12.30am in Wetherspoons, customers revelling in our military victory against the Nazi's whilst spouting fascistic rhetoric.

Is this getting the same sort of shock, horror, foaming at the mouth coverage as Starmer's free suits?

Reads like a who's who of anyone who is pretty much wrong about everything time and time again, yet never get held to account by 75% of media

Lest we forget, just how horrendous they were. 'Excalibur Healthcare' sounds like a sister company of 'Pear Tree Productions' #accidentalpartridge

My only assumption is that the people who employ him/read his articles are all suffering with memory loss, dementia etc

Part of why they hate Europe. People aren't being milked dry by healthcare insurance, making wealthy people wealthier

He'll fit right in with Trump and his cronies! This sort of thing disgustingly appears to be treated as a badge of honour.

He'll likely go all Rik from the 'Young Ones Again' again and start aggressively ranting about the "pigs" whilst also looking as though he's about to start crying

They all suffer from small man syndrome. Constantly spoiling for a fight where one doesn't (need to) exist.

Yep that final sentence encapsulates exactly how I'm feeling at present. "It just doesn't make sense"

Liz Truss's reaction to... Pork markets 😁 Woke markets 😔

Why would he drink caffeine free coke whilst being off his tits on ketamine. Surely caffeine is least of his issues?

Seems shockingly out of character for such a nice chap as dear old Rupert 😬

Assuming the "we" is referring to those who are wrong about everything, all of the time, yet end up getting knighted or being in the house of lords.

So long as not Newcastle away. At least can't get Wolves away now

An emotional Darren Grimes...

Where are there more easily manipulated voters and politicians for that matter? That's what motivates Cummings.

Thought Bogarde was excellent again. Felt reassured when he came on as at that phase in the game when Villa were becoming more dominant, his distribution and ability on the ball was better than that of Mings.

By looks of it she's dressing as cosplay 'wife' from 'The Handmaid's Tale'. Perhaps appealing to those who watched that particular show AND were on team Gilead?

Feel Villa are building to a massive win and great run of form. Not sure if it's today though

And National pride means entirely different things to different people. I lost most of my National Pride post 2016 and as a result of people like Kemi Badenoch
