“Our Nige, he’s just like a normal bloke he is, you know. He’s one of us. Rather than being a private-school-educated, upper class, millionaire career politician with a background in the financial sector, he’s just a normal everyday ex-financial-sector career politician, that’s also a millionaire, and also upper class and also private-school-educated. He’s only been a politician for 25 years, so he’s pretty new at it and a fresh new anti-establishment underdog. He’s just a normal bloke trying his best”

798 Cadbury’s Creme Eggs

£3,463.96 worth of produce

£4.34 for a Creme Egg? Or he stole 798 Creme Eggs as well as several thousand other non-headline-worthy products?

Without facial hair, he just looks like a thumb.

The sliver of petty vengeance in me quite enjoyed this bit:

“There are a load of MPs I thought I’d be spending decades with in this place,” said another. “They’re really good mates. And almost all of them are gone. It’s a reminder of how vulnerable we all are.”

Given that they were responsible for this (or worse) happening to hundreds of thousands of people over the last decade and a half, I wonder if there’ll be any life-changing realisations for any of them? What happens when a Tory learns about empathy?

“The Darkness Out There” by Penelope Lively.

In short, a “nice old lady” tells a couple of young kids about what they did to a young German who survived a plane crash over Britain during WW2.

I think it was there for the “the nice old lady was actually nasty and cruel and the evil nazi was actually just a scared, fairly innocent boy”.

“Hahaha!”, said the sword. “I will twist your mind until you’re wearing mixed fabrics, having pre-marital sex, and using the Lord’s name in vain!”, it cackled.

“I’ll even make you skip church on the sabbath!”.

“Phwoar! Most of the people in this hospital are wearing nurse’s uniforms! Kinky!”

It’s not all of Lemmy though - on Feddit.uk, nobody’s even mentioned it. The Britons are just discussing the wide variety of meals you can make by combining chips, cheese, beans, gravy and curry sauce in different arrangements.

Throwing pretend milkshakes at a pretend Nigel Farridge is disrespectful.

We should be burning effigies of him on bonfires.

That set of pictures is a pretty good lesson in how news photography works.
