Jill in the village shop says she’s thinking of defecating to Reform.
She has started baking Clacton Baps, told us London has fallen & keeps asking for the migration status of every customer.
She says Dubai is where she longs to be as she is a committed Christian.
WHAT DO I DO?😱

TRUMP: Who said that?

TRUMP: Well, that's their problem. I disagree with him. I don't know who he is. Don't know anything about him. But that's gonna be a big problem for him.

Some Tories, after 14 years in power…
…are saying nothing now works in the UK.
So they’re joining Reform, so they can complain about the Tory record - and you can vote them right back in, in a few years’ time, under new anti-Tory branding.

Reform council that promised cuts delivers payday for party backer
Reform councils have increased spending and handed out a £30,000 contract to a company owned by a party supporter which was involved with 10 serious pollution incidents in 2024.

Been mostly off social media reading CALVIN AND HOBBES all day. I treated myself to the Complete set and dove in.
It’s as funny, gorgeous, and full of heart as it’s always been. You can’t adapt this. When something is perfect, anything less than what it is seems a waste. You can’t improve on it.

Harrison Pitt accuses the King of treachery. Pitt is a Senior Policy Fellow for Rupert Lowe's Restore Britain, who also regularly co-hosts podcasts with his ally Tomlinson (who advocates banning all ethnic and faith minorities from public office). Like Lowe, Pitt is keen to dissolve boundaries/norms

Reform UK have repeatedly said that Kent is their "flagship" council and "the shop window" for how they intend to run things.
When they are exposed as planning to slash social care for old people, in order to hire their cronies as advisors at £150k a pop, I think people should believe them. ~AA

It's been a couple of days since I mentioned this, and I do really like people listening to it. There has been a spike in audience this week but I want more. My goal is one to two billion listeners an episode. At that point podcasts become quite profitable.
I've mentioned this quietly, but - since the summer my hobby has been making this ambitious murder mystery podcast. A story. Narrated by me, with a mouthwatering cast. Partly interactive. Trailer is coming tomorrow but if you like the sound of this, please follow @murderbastard.bsky.social.
