Tommy Robinson's Christmas Carol service featured two arrests - one for assault and another of a man suspected of homophobic abuse.
And loads of union flags and massive crosses... because that's traditional at the events where we celebrate Christ's BIRTH, isn't it. Crosses and flags.

Watched BBC 6 o clock news. Just a completely unserious broadcast. Chris Mason, acting like a children's entertainer, giving a prolonged impenetrable editorial. Not a whiff of informative content about the Budget or what it means for the country. Just playschool blah blah bollocks.

We can’t afford to do what every other country did years ago for our railways, but people need to drive their kids to school in a tank
Govt scraps all electrification investment. Midland Main Line to stay forever diesel Leicester Nottingham Derby Sheffield. Hugely embarrassing and inexplicable

UK transport secretary says full electrification of railways ‘not affordable right now’

We are so sad to hear that Dave Ball, the keyboard genius of Soft Cell, has died. He was an electronic pop pioneer and with Marc Almond made a unique catalogue of songs, completely original in sound and content. Our love and condolences go to Marc and all those close to Dave. Neil and Chris xx

If I were running Labour comms I would commission an app called 'Will the Tories/Reform deport you?' then let the reactions on TikTok and Instagram do their work.

I see Michelle Fadden on the train every morning
I picked up her name from a lanyard that dangles
Through fiery hair on her porcelain neck.
I’m out of my nut ‘Chelle trying to drum up the courage,
To tell you I’m Tony and I work there as well.

#pennedreveries - Day 16 ‘we belong’
They are here. Will you be long?
They want to know if we belong.
I don’t know what to say.
They want to take us.
They say
We are not allowed belongings.
Are you close by?
My phone is dying.

Can you think of a single movie in which there is a video from the government denouncing its political opponents playing on a loop in public spaces in which that government was the good guy?
A new Noem video is being played at airports trashing Democrats.

Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.
Nick Clegg says asking artists for use permission would ‘kill’ the AI industry
