Your party leader regularly uses dog whistles in a desperate and futile attempt to chase the far right vote.
Why not use your position of power to stand up to your own rotten leadership and start to actually represent the left wing movement your party was set up for?

We don't have "assholes" in this country.

Arseholes, maybe. In fact, definitely.

Be cautious when high-horsing.

Yep. 2010-2015. One PM.
In the following ten years, we've had five. Five useless fuckers at that 😿

The German company that makes the mechanical ladder used in the Louvre heist has used the image to advertise, with the text 'When you need to move fast'

10/10 response, no notes

Image of the mechanical ladder outside the Louvre

Text below says WENN'S MAL WIEDER SCHNELL GEHEN MUSS (When you need to move fast)

Underneath is more German text which translates as "The Böcker Agilo transports your treasures weighing up to 400kg at 42m/min - quiet as a whisper."

Self absorbed pondlife who think the world exists purely for their convenience.
And I earned a block.
Good to know they got riled by what other people think of their narcissistic behaviour.

If the road isn't wide enough in a particular place to park safely, then fuck off and park somewhere else, you entitled cunt.
Why the fuck should pedestrians be forced to give up their safe passage so you can keep your private property somewhere inappropriate?
Twat.

What an outstanding all dayer we had at Northern Guitars for Slay All Day II.

Thanx to all the bands for being involved 😸

Thanx for the support, Sammy! 😸😽

It's actually an all day event, starting at about 1400 and running until late.

Everyone welcome 👍🏻

Oh, I think you've just neatly described Sun "journalists" from the 80s.

It was men like Tice who made people feel they had to Anglicise their names so they wouldn't stand out and hopefully face less racism as a result.
For many it didn't work anyway.
Tice's behaviour is that of a racist and a bully.

I can well believe this. My cat has returned home on several occasions with chicken legs, sausages and once, half a burger still in it's bun.

Americans use childish euphemisms because they're scared of ANY kind of nudity & assume it must be sexual.
Which is why they paint trans people in toilets as predatory, rather than people just wanting a piss.
Although it's a more minor concern, their backward, prudish behaviour has its own dangers.

Being "grown up" got us Starmer. The most illiberal, authorotarian, frankly useless Labour leader ever.
Reform have shown it is possible to break the two party duopoly, it's up to the Greens to capitalise on that possibility.
This includes besting a useless Labour in straw polls.

Defecating in a urinal is just taking this obsessive behaviour up several tiers.

I would wholeheartedly approve, were it not for the fact that some poor sod would have to deal with the aftermath.

This is the kind of striving for comprehensive perfection that I can get behind.

Tis #Caturday once more and #CounceCat is all tuckered out just thinking about the #Parkrun that just took place. It's not that he couldn't run 5k, he chooses not to. Leave all that lark to the hounds, eh?
