Who knew that something you can fit between your thumb and finger could give you so much pleasure?

No, I wasn't - and I'm still not.

My mother and I spent 6,916 days together on this planet.

On Friday, it will have been 6,916 days since she left us.

By freakish coincidence, Friday is also the day I FINALLY become a homeowner!

Somebody up there likes me. ❤️

Lawrenson was truly awful. He made it sound like he was forced to go to World Cups and commentate against his will whilst providing zero insight. But like Le Tissier, he’d rather blame ‘woke’ than admit that maybe he could’ve kept his job by being better at it.

Does it bother you that the UK government treats disabled people like children? Why not?

They want to turn disability benefits into pocket money, to be given or withheld depending on whether they approve of what we buy theguardian.com/politics/2024/…

(2/2) I need a two-bed place so my assistants can sleep over in case of late finishes or early starts.

It costs me roughly £600/month more than a comparable one-bed in the same part of London. Yet I only get roughly £400/month in PIP.

So how would vouchers make that better?

As a wheelchair user who gets #PIP , this proposal to convert it to vouchers seems opaque at best and nonsensical at worst. First and foremost, because it reduces the function of PIP merely to 'buying stuff', but in practise, that's not always how it works.

For example... (1/2)

Mediocre insults aside (come on Graham just call me a tranny or faggot you coward), how did he even find this? Nobody tagged him and I didn't even mention him by name so that is some really sad self-searching.

Yep. I know of this one journalist who ever since having the Covid jab, offers highly dubious anecdotal evidence and then writes entire columns off the back of it.

When you have to explicitly write 'This is not a racist or bigoted post', you may or may not be racist or bigoted, but you're certainty not bright enough to refute the suggestion using rhetorical skill or facts.

One might suggest that one of the foremost political journalists in the land tweeting about it means it's no longer a surprise and that the Home Office comms people ought to be looking for other work.

When you've lost Guido Fawkes...

Wishing our friend and colleague Rageh Omaar a fast recovery.
All his friends at ITV News are thinking about him.
And can I praise the London Ambulance Service paramedics who were quite simply amazing. Thank you 🙏

So... tacit bribery?

Are they sure the system isn’t just playing up?

Someone making an exhibition of themselves... and his guest.

To be fair, while not inaccurate, this analysis could be applied to *any* government not riding high in the polls at any given moment when an election might be looming - but my learned friend is right that this particular scenario leaves Sunak and co very exposed.
