is this man crazy or what? I don't understand how anyone like him can ignore the whole of science and be put in charge of a country's health. He looks like one of the "Sontaran" clones, portrayed in British science fiction television programme "Doctor Who". #clonezone

From the headline I assumed he'd finally noticed that ethnonationalism might have its downsides as a strategy, but reading it, it's actually more "Leopards ate my face. Here's why we may soon not require faces"

Oh I see you think the rise in overt racism has nothing to do with you as former editor of the Spectator that loved to publish Douglas Murray, Rod Liddle and Lionel Shriver

Fraser Nelson blocked me on Twitter because he wrote an article about how the UK is the best place to be Black so I sent him a picture of the all white Spectator staff in LONDON and asked if this was you he said “I hire on ability” LOOOOOL

Interesting. @edsplace.bsky.social seems to be from the US but he butts into posts about Musk attempting to pervert Irish justice from combating the far right with this sort of weirdo bugfuckery. One for the blocklists.

I thought you might like to know a bit about my new morning routine, which consists of avoiding looking at the news, then 30 minutes later taking a little peek, then spending about an hour in a state of burning rage as I read about the continuing exploits of literally the worst humans in the world

Maybe you should talk to some artists, Lisa? They'll tell you about the impact of government funding. Honestly this government are plumbing new depths. To talk about "virtue signaling" in what's a pathetic attempt to signal you're "anti-woke" or some such nonsense is hypocritical and dense.
