If he only stuck to that activity Sarah! He and the rest of us might be happier
This is Johnson talking about rejoining Erasmus. A programme he promised not to leave and then did so anyway. Slamming the door on opportunities for our young people. Now he talks of gunning down those who attempt to fix his ruinous mess. The man is an irredeemable wanker.

We need your help to defend 6 health workers facing trial. They acted out of a duty to protect public health & planet, as politics and corporations fail to deliver their climate commitments.

Portugal’s parliament has passed a bill that would ban burqas. But in a country where almost no one wears one, Muslim women say the proposal is more about fear and politics than their rights.

Portugal burqa ban: what's the point of banning Muslim face coverings?
Few of the country's small Muslim community wear the full-body covering and they find the passing of a law to prohibit them baffling

Amazing news. Jamie has a fantastic track record, an inspirational figure who has proved the value of municipal socialism and community wealth building. He knows the Green Party are now his natural home. This is exciting.

British politics is a mess. Food, energy, housing are all too expensive. Major parties are all flogging the dead horse of trickle down. So I’m joining the Green Party. Britain needs an economy that works for workers, for small businesses, and future generations. @greenparty.org.uk

At #PMQs just now, Labour MP Abtisam Mohamed asked Starmer for - amongst other things - the government to consider bringing water companies into public ownership. He said "yes"!
But sadly I don't think this was a Christmas policy U-turn, I think he just wasn't listening properly 🤷

I have met Corbyn, Farage and Polanski. Two of them care about people. One cares about foreign investors planning to buy Britain cheap. Nigel does not love you. He loves Russian, Brazil and Dubai money. Reform mugs.

What is more dangerous?
A) An escaped axe murder wandering about with an axe saying "I want to kill people with my axe"
B) a unicorn that only the axe murderer can see.
Because the far right brought war and destruction to a continent and "cultural erasure" (of Europe) isn't a real thing.

Colleague to colleague: this sarcasm is a bit uncalled for. In fairness, the invitation does pose a bit of a challenge. Withdrawing will probably mean they’ll find someone else. One would almost be inclined to accept and call them out on live tv.

Meanwhile Robin Ince genuinely has been cancelled for daring to voice his opinions and for defending trans people.
Where's the outrage from the "cancel culture" lot?

Oh Mary! Is maybe the funniest thing I’ve ever seen at the theatre. Mary Todd Lincoln reimagined as a wannabe cabaret star. Face is still aching from the laughing. Just incredible writing, performances, the lot. The real deal. They called it the new Hamilton- it might be better.
