Robert Jenrick was 8 in January 1990 though had been often in the away end at Aston Villa by then in this particular narrative

And obviously completely ignores how creativity thrives in conversation and collaboration, in happy accidents. That some of your best work will be driven by the restrictions placed upon you. Things going wrong forcing you to adapt and think outside the box. Thinking on your feet. Fail. Fail better.

Jenrick casting 1980s British football hooliganism as something that was easily dealt with by police and not an era defining issue which we're still living with the consequences of today... He's genuinely the most unserious person in British politics rn

Through buying the book you’ve donated a total of £6,920.50 to Luton Foodbank over the years 👏

Alright, all. Have sold a few of these over recent weeks, must have been a vibe-shift. Anyway, just letting you know they are still for sale, still a decent Christmas present option for yer Da and still donating all proceeds to @lutonfoodbank.bsky.social. 🧡

Far-right, tax-dodging Dubai resident who believes himself equipped to run London and claims he will make security his top priority faces court action by MOD for revealing details of his military work.

Stewart Lee has had his say on the Riyadh Comedy Festival and it’s as excellent as you’d expect it to be.

David Simon, creator of ‘The Wire’, being interviewed by Ari Shapiro (NPR)

Extraordinary that the government is going to go into the next election having spent tens of billions of pounds on an ID card system that will be unpopular *and* produce no noticeable improvements to everyday life instead of renationalising the water industry.

Bumping this now Kogan has been officially confirmed at football's first regulator.

MUNDIAL Magazine wouldn’t have started, grown and eventually become what it was without it. It also allowed a load of people to incorrectly call us hipsters, but I’ve met some incredibly talented and brilliant people and my life is all the better for it. Real shame Musk ruined it for everyone 😉

Robert Jenrick refuses to drink Um Bongo , preferring R Whites instead

When someone accuses someone else of being a “champagne socialist” what they’re actually doing is holding that other person to a standard they would never hold themselves to.
In other words, “I can be an a—- & it’s ok but you are a disgrace for not being 100% perfect. How dare you!”
