While there is more money to be made out of clickbait and opinions any idea of objective truth will continue to dwindle. The current ecosystem of ‘news’ doesn’t allow for it. BBC included.

Pratchett wrote about retro-phrenology; the practitioner would put lumps on your head to give you the personality you desired. Using different gauge hammers.

I found the O2 to be a pain to get to, the seats (urgh) were designed without leg room and the view we had was not great. Sound wasn’t brilliant but we were on the side. Getting away was slow too. Loved the Hammersmith Apollo, Shepherd’s Bush Empire and thought the Brixton academy was reasonable

Worse than the O2? I’m (sort of) impressed, because the O2 is expensive nonsense.

No UK newspaper can publish a graph without skewing the axes, those clicks won’t click themselves.

Here’s the conundrum; how do uk farms compete with global suppliers who have few or no environmental or welfare standards to adhere to while maintaining strict standards in both?

True, however he does have media presence and attention. Difficult to get any voice without that.

The dictionary definition of hypocrisy. He should be asked about this on every media appearance.

Years ago I was working in a lab. A young scientist had loud music playing but he raced to turn it down when I arrived. That’s ok, says I, I like Pantera and saw them live a few times. Wow, says he, they broke up before I was born. I felt soooo old.

Farage is the father of Brexit, not a child of Brexit. Hence indigestible.

I once saw a mint moth in my garden on some mint. Not knowing what it was I took a photo and posted it in a forum of folks who can identify moths. Instantly a chap replied ‘mint moth’. My first thought was he was mocking, thank god I checked before flaming him.

Nah, one glimpse of Steve and his rubber glove would make the cow run a mile.

TBF, there was some sort of headpiece, at least initially, but the rider jettisoned that in favour of a more ‘face-to-face’ experience with the gravel.

Narrator: the opportunity was not taken. The govt were too timid to explain the benefits and too busy being scared of the Mail and Telegraph.

Let him re-read all the articles he put his name to while an MP, spouting off about benefits culture. Then a period of reflections about how those articles now apply to him. Finally a long walk off a short pier.

The Pencil Museum in Keswick, Cumbria, is a decent visit. Not just pencils but exhibits about graphite too, including a heist by French soldiers.

This sounds dangerously like big picture thinking. Can’t have that, please find a small detail you don’t like and extrapolate the he’ll out of it.

Most of the media owning billionaires are keen on Brexit, so eternal Brexit-wars to go. Plus the supine bbc give it credence rather than a straight bat.

Giving up his peerage and then failing to be elected would be quite the plot twist. But would fit his negotiator vibe.

I’m LD inclined but have voted Lab recently to remove Con MPs. If Lab move further right I will say to heck with tactics and follow my conscience. Comments in this article don’t help, and a red Ref Lite is not appetising.

Might as well be hung for a sheep as a lamb. Sadly the current mob are too much like lambs to the slaughter, far too timid.
