Another brilliant weekend in my city. Didn't even need a stab vest. Ventured all around, which I do all the time, and it's all same as it ever was. London is rocking. The Tommy Robinson fascists don't like hearing this, though.

How nice to dip my toe back in here every now and then and not find it full of racists and agitators from the Russian troll farm. Bravo to whoever looks after this platform. Hope everyone is doing good 👍

Thanks for all the birthday messages Put on a stab vest this morning and ventured out for a birthday celebration into Khan's lawless London, daring to go into Covent Garden and somehow getting out alive, dodging the maurauding knife-wielding Islamists taking over the country. HOW AM I STILL ALIVE?

At least this government has removed that disgusting 2 child benefit cap. With it, my family would have been destitute. I like to think the 8 of us kids turned out OK and have more than paid the nation back several times over.

If anyone tells you that London is dying then take it from someone who has lived here all my life, it's busier than ever. Bars, restaurants, galleries, museums packed. The fascists hate my city because we all just rub along fine together, always have done and always will, built on immigration.

I want to thank all my followers and more importantly everyone I follow for making this a pleasant and safe space for sharing interesting content. I post far less the last few months having gone through a bit of a mini breakdown but this is a nice place too look in. So glad I left the Musk cesspit.

Who else just loves zone-ing out and listening to classical music? I can't get to sleep without it.

What a couple of days! Yesterday I found out I'm going to be a grandad. Today I regained my rights as an EU citizen when my Irish passport dropped on the doormat. Bollocks to Brexit.

200 years ago today, on 27th Sept 1825, an event took place in the northeast of our little country that changed the world. Locomotion 1, built by George Stevenson, became the first steam locomotive to carry passengers on a public railway line between Stockton & Darlington.
Happy 200th anniversary.

A privilege to listen to the 44th President of the United States in #London last night. A man of profound intellect, decency and empathy, and a brilliant thinker and orator. Everything a proper President of the US ought to be.

I've never felt so down about the state of the world at the moment. Struggling, got to be honest. It all seems so hopeless.

Oscar Wilde's grave at Père Lachaise. Carved from a 20 tonne block of stone 'The Flying Demon Angel' was designed by Jacob Epstein after Oscar's death in 1911. Surrounded by two metre high plastic panes to prevent the traditional kissing the monument which left it covered in lipstick
