My eight year old daughter, Nina has come up with her own slogan - autistic. Because she believes that if you have autism you’re fantastic. If you agree please give this a like or a share (she’s been inspired by @francesryan.bsky.social activism)

Lawyers for Liz Truss have asked me to stop saying Liz Truss crashed the economy. I only said Liz Truss crashed the economy because Liz Truss did crash the economy. If she wanted me to not say Liz Truss crashed the economy, she shouldn’t have crashed the economy. Please don’t share.

When I was a little lad, supermac said, "we'd never had it so good" then, Harold Wilson invited us to embrace the white heat of technology. Ted Heath took us into the EEC. After that, THATCHER. It seems to be downhill all the way.

Apparently, 2 million people in the UK have asked for a new general election? The "media" feel this is worthy of attention. However, the right of 80,000 tories to elect a mad cabbage lower was democratic?
