Arsenal fan, south Londoner. I really don’t like Thatcher, still. Machine gun socialist. I demand champagne. The profile is me and my good chums the Ambiguous Dance Company. Larger picture is what socialism gets you.

I intended on ex-Twitter to do a thread of my favourite YouTube creators, but it felt a bit pretentious over there, I don’t know why. So I’m doing one now, and will constantly update when I remember each channel.
When these people release videos I watch them, always.

In no particular order:
Pleribus episode 6 was the best episode of tv I’ve seen in years. I could have watched four hours of it without flinching.

I’d like to find the family with the most kids over the two child limit who hate Labour and will vote Reform. There will be one somewhere.

Bus Aunty and Simply Sayo joined Deputy Mayor Debbie Weekes-Bernard to help spread an important message – London needs more Black heritage blood donors.

Giving blood can provide life-saving transfusions including for sickle cell patients.

If I’d been invited to the lottery scratch card loving Bennet’s family Christmas, after we played musical lottery scratch cards, I’d wait for a little moment of silence and ask “how come there’s no kids here?”

Getting bad vibes from that John Lewis dad.

Midlife crisis. Son nervous. Wife let him buy ridiculous coffee machine he won’t clean properly and will abandon like the saxophone her bought last year.

International away fans are adrenaline junkies who expect a hit once every twenty years or so. But when they do get a hit, oh boy.

Jenrick had been on Nick’s show, JOB said that had he had the privilege of interviewing RJ, he would have reviewed record on accidental prisoner release, NF part of media regime that didn’t give a hoot re: prisoner clangers when the Tories were in power. A v peeved centralist sensiblist indeed.

What Labour should do is go hard on tax. Tax the shit out of the rich, out of assets, out of capital gains, let the media scream about it for the next two to three years. Then they should radically reduce income tax at the poor end in the last year when hopefully they can afford it.

So if British football thugs get banned from an away match all politicians in this country would support that I believe, with gusto. But foreign football thugs must must must be welcomed here. It’s a bit ‘through the looking glass’ isn’t it?

It’s kinda touching to see Brits complain so much about the price of olive oil.

Maybe there’s an earache epidemic.

Inner London will feel practically childless in 15 years. 50 years of class war has sterilised the city.

He said he had the tallest building in downtown rather than the whole city, and he didn’t in fact have the tallest building anyway.
