I build stuff, but mostly I fix stuff. When I’m not breaking stuff.
My favourite Robert Jenrick fact.
Remember in 2017 when the Electoral Commission gave the Tories the biggest ever fines for discrepancies in their accounts for election spending?
The 2014 by-election where Jenrick “won” his first seat was one of those.
Starting out as he meant to go on.
Corrupt.

Corrupt.
It wasn’t the racism.
It wasn’t the rule breaking.
It wasn’t the corruption.
No Jenrick gets removed for plotting.
Politics for too many leaders is just a game, and not a moral one.
It’s why people are crying out for hope.

NEW: Big, big news in Westminster for the Conservative Party. Kemi Badenoch has not only sacked but removed the whip from Robert Jenrick, saying he was planning to defect.

I have diabetes. It sucks. Thanks to people like @diabetesuk.bsky.social it is much much easier to manage now than it was 21 years ago when I was diagnosed.
Please donate whatever you can so this pain in the backside continues to get easier to manage each year.

I have a counter-counter offer. Jail them. Jail every single person who has gleefully profited off this blatant disaster.
The Billionaire Media is pushing for Thames Water to be 'temporarily renationalised' at a cost to you of £21bn so billionaires don't lose a penny.
I have a counter offer, make them go bankrupt, renationalise permanently for free.

Something that I think is funny about the first #StarWars film is Luke's lightsaver. Ben gives Luke his father's lightsaber, we see Luke practice with it, and then... nothing. It just hangs on Luke's belt for the second half of the movie. What happened to the principle of Chekhov's Gun?

Oh my god. I thought this was some historical thing, maybe from the convict's first term. But it's from two days ago. What an arse.
Said it before & will say it again. There is no reason for this grievance monkey to be in America on Tartan day, Celebrating the US/Scottish connections to feather his own nest. Aligning Scotland up with Trump's value's is dangerous enough, Without trying to pass himself off as a credible politician

Someone needs to set up a "LIVE: Can Mark Carney outlast a lettuce?" webcam. Only way to know for sure.
Liz Truss has said that Mark Carney will be disasterous as Canadian PM.
She of course still claims to have caused no disasters.

Family photo albums. 😢
When I was 23, the house I lived in burned to the ground. I was asleep, and got out with nothing but my pjs and my roommate’s dog.
When you lose your house it is not about the sofa or tv. It’s the concert t-shirt you bought with your best friend, and the last letter your grandfather wrote you.
