When I began school, my mum told me that if I didn't want to be pretty, I'd have to be a doctor. Best career advice I ever had.

You don't think about anything, do you?

The IRA changed because Catholic priests entered the Maze prison and educated its leaders, while the Protestant prisoners just marched up and down the corridors. During the peace process, the IRA hit the ground running, while the Protestant paramilitaries never really understood what was going on.

The monk is carrying his begging bowl. He wants food, and all these cunts are giving him is a namaste.

Reminiscent of the Smirnov gambit, which consists of turning up to a game blind drunk, falling asleep at the board and snoring loudly.

The artist isn't just telling you what the place looks like, he's also telling you what it feels like to be there.

Russia has been using North Koreans as slave labour for many tears, in factories just across the border between the two countries. Given the militarism in Pyongyang, it's more or less a given that it is also using NK troops.

The people who protest about abortion are rarely Catholics.

Everyone in the free world supports you. Your fight is our fight.

Farage is all about plausible deniability, so he can't have people openly saying what he thinks.

I came to England as a refugee and voted for the first time - as an Irish citizen. My husband is from NI but going through UK immigration would have been far too much hassle.

Starmer argues that people voted for Brexit because they were worried about immigration, and he regards it as his job to keep it to the bare minimum. I have never known a politician to have so little political acumen.

I would feel perfectly safe in a unisex loo, even if it had urinals. Especially if it had urinals.

Remember all that fuss they made at the WH, about Zelensky being inappropriately dressed? I hope that Vance isn't there, he's an embarrassment to the Catholic faith.

She was exploited twice: once by Epstein and again by those who wanted to punish his associates.

My son would like to live there.

"ill-founded self-belief", I'll have to snag that one.

Boundaries shift and definitions change. But medicine is about treatment, not classification.

So am I. But if I talk about it, I will only get my head chewed off. It was the same with Aids, and with Covid.

Farage can sniff out money like a dog sniffs a bitch.

Not for Starmer. He would argue that:
1. The referendum result is sacred.
2. The decisive issue was immigration.
3. Nobody should be allowed into the UK.

Autism has become yet another no-go area for doctors.

But Temu sells a lot of crap and they run a ridiculous promotion pretending to give away a tablet. I wanted to buy a burner phone and they were selling a 2G clamshell model for £25. Very cheap but even 3G is being phased out, so 2G?? Sure I got two great deals, but the jury's still out.

Ever used Temu UK? Recently I wanted a TF card for my Chinese hub, and they were the only people who sold them. Delivery was slow, but I got a very good deal. So I decided to use them again to buy a pack of 4 AAAA batteries for a USI pen. Delivery was even slower, but again it was a great deal.

I'd like to see a film about a Papal funeral, as a companion piece to The Conclave.
